It’s the duration that an attacker remains undetected within your business’s network, once they have managed to infiltrate it. The longer an attacker remains undetected, the more time they have to exploit vulnerabilities and navigate your system, to escalate privileges, exfiltrate data and potentially cause significant damage. Gallagher’s latest cyber advisory explains the costs of extended dwell time and advises measures that your company can put in place to reduce this, should you be the target of a cyber attack.

Working from home? Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a must! MFA requires two or more verification methods to access your accounts, such as a password and a code sent to your phone. With cyber threats on the rise, MFA adds an extra layer of security, ensuring your data remains protected even if your password is compromised. Don’t rely on passwords alone – enhance your security with MFA. Stay secure, stay protected! #RemoteWork #CyberSecurity #MFA #Wyntec

This paints a picture that is all too familiar to those that implement Security. We need to be mindful of those who are looking after security in our workplaces. They work hard to make sure that the company doesn’t get breached, and they effectively protect your personal credentials too - if you use your computer for personal use even when you’re told not to. So lets all be kind to them. Do the training properly. #cybersecurityawareness I recommend adding Silverfort to your cyber security ecosystem and extend MFA to those legacy apps that you’ve been running with potentially breached credentials. #hardenyouriam #ITDR #silverfort #identitysecurity #identityaccessmanagement #mfa

"Did you know that a staggering 68% of all cyber attacks target small businesses? Don't let your organization be a part of this statistic! Implementing multi-factor authentication and secure audit trails can significantly reduce the risk of data breaches and protect your sensitive information. Plus, with the rise of remote work, these compliance measures are more important than ever. Stay one step ahead of cyber criminals and keep your business secure. #cybersecurity #dataprotection #compliance #protectyourbusiness"
