Passwords are an inherently flawed security measure in an era of constant phishing attacks and massive data leaks. This guide breaks down the latest recommendations from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and shows how to improve security with longer passwords, smarter tools, and modern authentication methods.

This extra layer of security is meant to prevent unauthorized access and protect sensitive information. However, while MFA may seem like a foolproof solution, it actually has its own set of vulnerabilities that […]

Cybersecurity experts Rob Wright (Dark Reading), David Jones (Cybersecurity Dive), and Alissa Irei (TechTarget Search Security) recently came together to discuss the future of online security. Let’s take a look at their insights on major trends and new risks to help businesses better navigate the challenges on the horizon.

Strong passwords are one of the easiest and most effective ways to protect online accounts. Still, many businesses use weak or reuse credentials. Learning how to create stronger passwords can significantly lower your business’s risk without adding unnecessary complexity to your security practices.

We give our IT teams the keys to the kingdom to keep operations running. Yet, that access creates a massive blind spot. Recent trends show disgruntled tech workers bypassing the very security measures they helped build. Trust is necessary for business, but blind faith in your technical staff leaves your company wide open to attack.

With cyberthreats escalating and major breaches costing billions, many organizations are embracing the zero trust approach, a holistic methodology that assumes compromise and requires constant verification across all devices and applications. This guide lists the practical, actionable steps security leaders must take to move beyond initial pilots and effectively implement a comprehensive zero trust architecture […]
