Dear Padgett-Beale Guest, Here at Padgett-Beale we are always working hard to maintain the trust of all our guests. Creating a comfortable and safe environment is our number one priority. We appreciate your concerns about the potential for cyberattacks and loss of personal
information. Our team is working diligently to improve our security and mitigate risks. Cyber security professionals and our team are monitoring and addressing any possible cyber-attacks. In the event that a cyber-terrorist is uncovered, they will be promptly reported to the proper authorities. As our security team works to address future problems with our network, your patience
during this time is greatly appreciated. After consulting with the cybersecurity professionals, we suggest the following steps to prevent your information from being compromised.
Use a strong password containing upper and lower-case letters, numbers, and if permitted special characters. The more complex your password, the harder it is for a hacker to guess.
When not using your computer, make sure you have successfully signed off and shut down the computer.
Limit the use of personal information while using the network. This includes using credit or debit cards while online shopping. It is also suggested to refrain from using your full name and personal address if possible. Padgett-Beale values all our guests and strives to make them comfortable and safe during their time with us. Thank you for your assistance in maintaining your safety.
