Cyberattacks are on the rise, and small businesses are no longer flying under the radar. Hackers target these businesses because they often lack the robust defenses of larger organizations. One critical measure that can significantly enhance your cybersecurity posture is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).
In today’s interconnected world, small businesses are increasingly becoming prime targets for cybercriminals. Many attackers see small businesses as low-hanging fruit—often lacking the robust defenses of larger organizations. To safeguard your business, it’s crucial to understand the leading causes of cybersecurity breaches and take proactive measures to mitigate them.
Windows Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a workhorse of remote connectivity, allowing users and administrators to connect to the desktops of far-flung machines and perform tasks as if they were sitting directly in front of them. As global workforces shifted to remote work at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, RDP’s use for accessing business systems increased dramatically. Hackers and cybercriminals took notice, and as a result, the move to remote work has seen a corresponding dramatic increase in RDP attacks.
Protecting your data is sometimes easy and sometimes easier said than done. Many businesses – particularly small businesses – don’t know if or how they’re leaking data. A recent study found that 58 percent of companies don’t know how much data their employees share externally. And that’s just the beginning of the problem.
Technology has become an essential part of business operations, and a growing number of industries are wholly reliant on technology for their day-to-day operations. This reliance on technology means that businesses generate more data than ever before. As a result, companies must have the means to access and store this data securely and efficiently, moving data security to the front of any technology conversation.
