What should you do if you notice suspicious activity on the network?

Reporting suspicious activity to the appropriate authorities is crucial for maintaining the integrity and security of the network. When such activities are observed, they may indicate potential security breaches, unauthorized access, or other malicious actions that could compromise sensitive information or disrupt operations.

Timely reporting allows trained personnel to investigate thoroughly and take necessary actions to mitigate any risks. This proactive approach not only helps protect the organization’s resources but also ensures compliance with legal and regulatory requirements regarding data security and breach reporting. In addition, it fosters a culture of vigilance and responsibility, encouraging others to be aware of and report concerning behaviors.

By taking this action, you contribute to a safer network environment, while ignoring or waiting for someone else to act could lead to further complications or dangers escalating within the system.
