Preventing problems

What to do first after an attack

  1. Disconnect the affected computer or NAS from the network and Wi-Fi, but don't switch it off or wipe it.
  2. From a different, clean device, change the passwords for your email and banking.
  3. Don't pay a ransom or call numbers shown in pop-ups.
  4. Call us, and report it.

Report it. In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, report cyber crime and fraud to Report Fraud (the service that replaced Action Fraud) at reportfraud.police.uk or on 0300 123 2040. A business under a live cyber attack can call that number 24 hours a day. In Scotland, call Police Scotland on 101.
