Hong Kong, China – June 6, 2016 – Active e –Solution, the leading business process & office automation solution provider, has successfully held the “Avoid Locky Ransomware Virus, Choose OceanFax?” Workshop with OceanX Technology Limited on 3rd June, 2016. The workshop aimed to explain how fax solutions, OceanFax, can prevent companies to be infected by virus.

Recently, many companies, even the large corporations, have suffered a great loss incurred by the newly appeared locky ransomware virus which locks the users’ computer files and blackmails them to give a great amount of ransom to get the files unlocked when the users click and open the attachments sent by email. The email contents always pretend to be important documents such as invoices or payment statements that users may not be aware the emails are suspected. It is clearly shown that sending documents through email may not be the safest way now. To avoid computers being infected, the best way is to use secure transmission method-fax server to send and receive important documents.

Viewing the serious impacts on the industries caused by this kind of virus, OceanX utilized this workshop to explain to the audiences how great impacts the virus will cause, how to prevent your computer files being infected, how to make use of fax to send and receive critical documents in a safer, more secure and efficient way. Using fax also can prevent any confidential information being leaked to the outsiders which greatly increase the security of document transmission. The workshop also introduced other functions which can enhance the faxing security and confidentiality such as Super User List (can set some super users who are the only ones being able to view the specified faxes), AES Symmetric key encryption (protects data and enforce confidentiality during transmission and storage), Tender Box (faxes in the box cannot be opened before the close time to avoid any accidental viewing) etc.

Active will continuously organize workshops to keep customers informed with new computer security-related trends as well as any advanced technology which can fight against virus and other treat activities.
