In business today, technology plays a big role. Unfortunately, by using technology, each individual has to make security considerations.

Cybersecurity covers a broad range of risks and threats. You’ve got the basics like your computer viruses and malware, to the business-crippling ransomware and data breaches. You have threats that cause stress and downtime, and others that steal information and money, and others still that don’t even have clear understandable objectives. The point is, cybersecurity isn’t simple, but sometimes the threat actors and cybercriminals who target you will use low-tech methods to get what they want.

This month, we’ll go into four things every computer user should know about building strong and reliable passwords

Of all your business’ potential cybersecurity vulnerabilities, one can more easily bring your organization to its knees than any other… but if this vulnerability is addressed correctly, you could instead see considerable benefits.

The NSA—the National Security Agency of the United States of America—are pretty well-known for their digital prowess. Therefore, when they provide a list of practices to help keep our increasingly crucial mobile devices secure, it only makes sense for us to listen.

Potential data breaches pose a growing threat to organizations, with phishing attacks being the most prevalent method hackers use to steal sensitive information.

Cyberattacks will not let up anytime soon, so businesses need to be prepared with the knowledge and expertise to combat them. Unfortunately, finding the right folks with the right expertise is hard. According to a report from Kaspersky titled “The Portrait of Modern Information Security Professional,” the world is short about 4 million security professionals, and even the existing professionals make grave errors in their first couple of years. Let’s take a look at some of these insights and see what we can learn from them.

Password management can be challenging for both businesses and individuals, but it doesn't have to be as difficult as it seems. With the increasing threat of cybersecurity attacks, relying on a single password is no longer sufficient. Instead, you need to use complex passwords stored in a password manager, which simplifies the process of remembering them.
