The important role that cybersecurity plays in modern computing cannot be understated. Simply put, when integrated as part of a holistic solution, security:

  • Keeps data secured from unauthorized access
  • Protects users from threats that impact productivity
  • Hardens devices against known and unknown attacks
  • Enforces organizational policies, maintaining compliance

When implemented as a half-measure or unvetted solution to a larger problem, it may have the adverse effect of growing into a vulnerability, compromise or full-scale data breach.

In this blog, we discuss these near-misses and how they affect your security posture, as well as how to better insulate your organization against missing critical points in their cybersecurity plan.

Attackers have gotten very good at knowing how to reach you. Sometimes they know your phone number, your email, your place of work, and your colleagues’ names and that would be enough to reach you with a compelling phishing campaign.

But now, thanks to the wafts of personal data changing hands online, attackers also know your interests. Just like brands using your behavior, interests, likes, dislikes and purchase history to target ads to you, attackers are using that information to craft attacks that might be more alluring. This means users are more likely to stumble upon online risks, especially when it comes to attacks distributed on social media where we are very accustomed to having a personalized experience.
