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.

Digital footprints cover today's modern workplace. Employees begin making these the moment they're hired. They get a company email address and application logins. They may even update their LinkedIn page to connect to your company.

When an employee leaves a company, digital offboarding must occur.

Do emails seem never to make it into your inbox? Or maybe you're receiving too many "junk" emails? This may be due to your spam filters.

Spam is the email equivalent of junk mail. It's bothersome, time-consuming to wade through, and sometimes, a security risk.

The global damage of cybercrime has risen to an average of $11 million per minute.

The costs of falling victim to a cyberattack can include loss of business, productivity losses, reparation costs for customers that have had data stolen, and more.

Whether you work remotely or in an office, the line between personal and work tasks can become blurred when working on your company computer.

A survey of over 900 employees found that only 30% said they never used their work PC for personal activities.

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.

The cybercrime industry looms as a constant threat to businesses and individuals. Experts estimate that cybercrime costs will reach $10.5 trillion annually by 2025. Now, it's rarely a case of "if" you experience a cyberattack. Instead, it's a matter of "when.

As cyberattacks grow more frequent and costly, IT security importance increases. In recent security discussions, you may have heard the phrases "SOC and SIEM," two more IT acronyms. But what do they mean, and why do they matter to you?

The SOC and SIEM work to identify threats on your network, protecting you from cyberattacks.

What do you do if you receive an odd email from your boss? Do you hit reply, perform the task, or call your boss to verify the email came from them?

Cybercriminals (also known as "bad actors") are now using AI to create convincing phishing emails.

The frequency and cost of cyberattacks continue to grow. Fortunately, new and old security technology is rising to meet the challenge as new threats occur. For example, antivirus security programs and endpoint detection and response (EDR) programs both work to protect your system from threats.
