Though we've studied AI from a cybersecurity and technology standpoint, the rapid advancement of use cases for it - Large Language Models in particular - is something where small business owners may find themselves in the "deep end of the pool" accidentally. This short article has some short coverage on the broad topics that should be of interest to you if you find yourself driving into deeper AI waters! Be sure to bring a pool noodle! https://lnkd.in/ghBTZZnz

This is our last post for the 2024 Cybersecurity month!?(Bummer, I know right!) Here is a short blog post about password practices to celebrate. Thinking back to email and "Business Email Compromises" / BEC events we have consulted on this past year, poor password hygiene was a root cause or enabler for 3 of those events. In one memorable case, in addition to bilking the victim company out of 10s of thousands of dollars, they also retrieved a spreadsheet of other passwords and started accessing other important outside accounts. Spreadsheet protection passwords can only keep them out of that file for a couple of hours if they have the right tools! Please check out the article on the link below, and have a safe and happy Halloween! https://lnkd.in/gjf35YEx

Was looking at some dark web monitoring alerts today with one of our analysists and remembered this article from Bitwarden. "Password Spraying" is a mechanized form of credential stuffing attack. The bad guys have all of these stolen credentials from over time that include passwords, and they make a database of them essentially and start trying logins across the board. If you've had a password stolen from a Facebook hack, they'll try that same password against your bank account, corporate vpn logins, email accounts, etc. This usually gets combined with a dictionary attack where they just try all of the most commonly seen passwords that they track from all of the compromises. (Here's looking at you Password$1!) Bitwarden's a decent product to help manage credentials. We sell stuff like that but advise you get it from someone! https://lnkd.in/gFnKpWiD

A lot of us are probably getting used to seeing MFA / 2-factor turned on for important accounts already. Banks and investment sites and lots of others are requiring it now, and it's not optional! We've seen and heard grumblings from employees at clients about 2-factor. The reasons for it at your company are basically the same as why your bank needs it - to protect the business and you. As a business owner, your operations and data security should be at least as important as how your bank feels about your info there. As an employee, you should be protecting the company you work for. If you don't want to or it's inconvenient sometimes I'll share a secret with you - you are being RIDICULOUS. In this cyber threat world your owners and managers should be using it and requiring it of everyone. Want to go to 99% security? Use MFA! Want to go higher? Give us a call! https://lnkd.in/eiSv8YFQ

It's Cybersecurity Awareness month but we haven't hit the busy season for hacking yet for this time of year! As we get closer to the December holidays, the scammers and phishing emails are sure to pick up or become more clever. They usually switch to holiday-themed messages like package delivery alerts, gift card scams, and fake product sales for the latest Santa toy. That means *now* is the time to contact us so we can help with your defenses, assessments, and security awareness training.? This article also has some good tips to bear in mind and help keep your business safe! https://lnkd.in/gjf35YEx

MFA = Multi-factor authentication 2FA = 2-factor authentication Two-Step - I think it's a dance??I don't support dancing, at least not for computers or networking or information security! What most people are doing with MFA is really 2-Factor authentication with a username+password and a "second factor".?The 2nd factor can be your face, fingerprint, a code from a text message, or better yet from a secure app like Duo or Microsoft authenticator. Can 2-factor be overcome??Yes - but it's 10x harder than getting past a username and password. So it's like going from 90% secure to 99% secure, or 99% secure to 99.9% secure. A factor of 10. Want to get to 99% or higher security??Use MFA!?Want to go higher??Give us a call! https://lnkd.in/eiSv8YFQ

When we work with clients on vulnerability management, some things that make the worst security holes are old Windows updates and running stale software like 10 year old Acrobat! I think it's amusing when people are resistant to Windows 11 who won't hesitate to go out and buy a new cell phone on a weekend whim!?Change and updates are good for security, and they'll help your brain grow! But jokes aside, updates should be the easy part of security. Contact us and we can help you keep up! Happy Cybersecurity Awareness month! https://lnkd.in/eiSv8YFQ
