Guarding the gateway: Mastering cybersecurity

Guarding the gateway: Mastering cybersecurity

In 2020, the pandemic pushed us into the digital age faster than anything else could. Now we live in a world that is always connected, and this has opened up many new cyberthreat possibilities.

Choosing Zero Trust

The digitization in companies worldwide has made authentication a critical part of everyday personal and business lives. Users can now connect to work remotely and even use personal devices to access data and resources. With this increased accessibility, the standard username and password is no?longer enough to prove user?identities. It's?now imperative to use secure authentication methods, which is where Zero Trust comes in. Zero Trust is a cybersecurity model that's based on not trusting anyone that tries to authenticate without first verifying their identity.

Future of authentication

According to the?2023 Data Breach Investigations Report from Verizon, 83% of data breaches involved external actors, and 74% of the breaches involved the human element. It's becoming increasingly evident that passwords alone are not capable of protecting accounts and data, and organizations need to take their security to the next level with MFA. MFA verifies a user's identity by collecting two or more verifying factors from the user. This includes something the user knows?(account password) along with something they have?(SMS code or push notification) or something they are?(biometric factors like facial or fingerprint recognition).

Choosing the right MFA setup

Trying to decide which MFA methods to use for your organization can be confusing. That's why we wrote an e-book on?the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency's (CISA) guidelines for how to choose?the best MFA method. Download it?here !
