Digital connectivity is an indispensable force in our lives, making a major impactful statement about its significance to cybersecurity. However, as technology progresses so do online threats.

Oft times, our own actions place us at greater risk from scams or cyberattacks. Weak passwords and lax policies are two such risky behaviors; human error accounts for approximately 88% of data breaches.

National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA) and CybSafe work to correct bad cyber hygiene. Their annual report examines attitudes and behavior related to cybersecurity; their goal is to educate both people and businesses alike on how they can better secure their digital environments.

Smart home gadgets have quickly become an indispensable resource, yet also pose serious security threats. Hackers could use these devices to gain access to personal data or spy on you or monitor activities within your house - potentially leading them to gain control and damage your house by breaking in or accessing other parts.

Smart home devices often go unnoticed. Over 75% of people remain reluctant to disclose personal data; yet most remain open to using this type of technology in their home.

Cyber security threats remain a top concern as we increasingly turn towards smart living. Hackers could have compromised your smart systems without your knowledge.

How can you recognize when a hacker ha...

Social media can be an extremely effective marketing tool for small businesses, allowing you to quickly communicate updates to your customer base while engaging with them directly. But be wary: what you post on popular platforms such as Facebook and Instagram could put your business at risk of cyber attacks.

However, cybercriminals could gain invaluable insight by sharing certain details on social media which cybercriminals could then exploit to gain entry to vulnerable spots within your system - which could cost your company much more in future due to carele...

Unnerving trends were recently exposed in a new security report.

Cyber attacks are growing increasingly prevalent. Criminals now take an average of just 62 minutes to gain entry to your network compared to 84 minutes last year.

These attacks are becoming both faster and more frequent. According to a report issued by our company, 34 new cyber criminal groups were identified bringing our total cyber-criminal groups tracked up to over 230.

Cyber criminals don't just sit around doing nothing - they have evolved rapidly into increasingly sophisticated attackers. According to one report, they have even set a record-breaking time of 2 minutes and 7 seconds for an attack breakout - not enough time even...
