Email Is now an essential communication tool for businesses of all sizes. However, email's speed and convenience come with the potential for security risks. Hackers use email to plant malware or use social engineering to steal credentials.

Protecting your business email from hackers, phishing attempts, and data breaches is crucial to safeguarding sensitive information and maintaining the trust of your clients.

With the increasing dependence on digital technology, cybercrime has grown. A significant cyber threat facing businesses today is a phishing attack known as Business Email Compromise (BEC).

BEC attacks jumped 81% in 2022, and as many as 98% of employees fail to report the threat.

In today's digital age, mobile devices have become an integral part of our lives. From smartphones to tablets, we rely on these devices for communication, entertainment, and accessing information.

However, with this increased reliance comes the need to keep our mobile devices safe and secure.

Phishing attacks have become an increasingly prevalent threat in today's digital landscape. Phishing messages are disguised as trustworthy sources but hold a dangerous intent. Their goal is to steal information or plant malware.

These deceptive cyberattacks pose a significant risk to organizations and their employees.

Professionals can now use mobile devices to make communication and data sharing more convenient.

But this also means that information on your team members' mobile devices is no longer limited to just phone numbers and contacts. Instead, they now contain more significant data, such as emails, passwords, and other account details.

Phishing is the number one method of attack delivery for everything from ransomware to credential theft. Phishing is a popular email attack, but other types of phishing have been growing rapidly.

In recent years, phishing over social media has skyrocketed by 500%. There has also been a 100% increase in fraudulent social media accounts.

Malware isn’t just irritating popups or a slow computer. It can introduce dangerous files to your network, bringing productivity to a sudden halt.

Approximately 34% of businesses take a week or longer to regain access to their data and systems after a malware attack.

How many text messages from companies do you receive today compared to five years ago? If you're like many people, it's quite a few more.

Many retailers now bypass email inboxes by urging consumers to sign up for SMS alerts. The medical industry has also joined the trend.

Many everyday objects can lead to identity theft. Unfortunately, they often get overlooked because people focus on their computers and cloud accounts. But you also need to be wary of other ways cybercriminals can access your personal data.

Essentially, if you're connected to the internet, your data is at risk.

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.

Mobile phones now do many of the same functions as a computer. Yet, people tend to secure their computers better than their smartphones.
