How to Report hacking Attempt?

Good day Team,

<SNIP>
Some tips:
  • Get a decent external firewall - keep the firewall firmware updated
  • Disable ALG, Disable UPnP - disable ALL incoming traffic
  • Use hosted email (eg Gmail) as they will clean all incoming email
  • Run a nmap scan against your public IP to see if any ports exposed
  • If you need to connect in, use a VPN from static IP and use 2FA
  • Block all outgoing and force use of an http/https proxy
  • Split your network - get an internal firewall and put servers in a separate network zone (VLAN), user devices in another VLAN and use a firewall to control access.
  • Enforce password length policy and use 2FA
  • Enable NAC to prevent unauthorized devices
  • Keep software updated, apply security patches promptly.
  • Enable client OS firewalls
  • Disable and remove unnecessary software
  • Control software install - don't allow users to install any software - do it for them
  • Do backups - to offsite
  • etc
It's not easy and requires constant work.
