    Top Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities

    With two out of three businesses being victims of cyber-crime, we wanted to inform you of the "why" these breaches and hacks have a high success rate. Lack of training - what you do not know makes you vulnerable. Invest in adequate training for your team. Weak passwords - we all struggle here because we like convenience. Convenience comes at a cost like going out of #business. Invest in a password management tool or, at the very least, initiate MFA on all of your applic

    Everything isn't Always What it Seems

    A remarkable 1 in 25 branded emails is a phishing attack. Brands that have built a reputable reputation can be used as a weapon for those with ulterior motives. Just because the email says it is from Apple doesn't mean it came from Apple. Deception is a powerful agent; keep your eyes open and pay attention to the details. We suggest investigating the "From" line in an email and making sure it has come from the brand's official URL. #MID #ITsupport #cybersecurity Ever
