No business wants to suffer a data breach. But unfortunately, in today’s environment, it’s challenging to avoid breaches altogether. Approximately 83% of organizations have experienced more than one data breach.

However, companies don’t need to resign themselves to the impending doom of a data breach.

Imagine you receive a text from the CEO asking for your help. They're visiting customers, but someone forgot to provide gift cards for these visits. So the CEO needs you to buy six $200 gift cards and text the information.

Would this kind of request make you pause and wonder? Or would you quickly pull out your credit card to do as the message asked?

A surprising number of employees fall for this gift card scam and others.

During the first few months of 2022, mobile malware attacks surged by 500%. In addition,  over 60% of digital fraud now occurs through mobile devices.

The 2018 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report revealed that 81% of company data breaches were due to poor passwords and password practices. In the 2022 report, a combination of human errors, misuse, and social engineering accounted for 82% of breaches.

Cybercrime continues to grow. In 2021, the average number of global cyberattacks increased by 15.1%. Now, as we approach 2023, do you feel prepared for new risks in cybersecurity?

Did you know that your privacy could be at risk when you connect to public WiFi?

Connecting to open public networks poses several security risks to your device and information. If you're using public networks for work tasks, you've also exposed your business data to potential cyberattacks.

Cybercrime is a rapidly growing industry. Experts estimate that cybercrime costs will reach $10.5 trillion annually by 2025.

But did you know that there's more than one kind of cyberattack?

Cyber extortion and ransomware are two costly and damaging attacks popular with cybercriminals.

If your company is hit by ransomware, what does recovery look like? Do you pay the ransom or not? Does it make a difference?

Unfortunately, there’s no simple “Yes” or “No” answer. Several elements are at play within a ransomware attack.

Is your company's data secure from cyberattacks? How do you know? Do you know the tools and practices that help keep your system safe?

With the average cost of a data breach in 2022 being $4.35 million, cybersecurity is now a significant concern for many businesses.

As cybercrime reports rise, are small businesses at risk of cyberattacks? If you're not a multi-billion-dollar company, are you still a target?

Unfortunately, the answer is yes.

Cybercriminals don't discriminate by business size. Money is money, after all, and criminals often don't care where they get it.

Cybercrime is on the rise and shows no sign of stopping. If the cybercrime industry were a country, it would be the world's third-largest economy.

However, cybercrime was not always so profitable. So what took cyberattacks from rarities to a common, costly threat? Technology has recently changed in ways that are beneficial to cybercriminals.
