The cloud should be a secure place for business data, but cloud misconfigurations and lax security practices often leave the door wide open for cybercriminals. This article explores how to close those gaps.
Why cloud security continues to fail
A recent report by the cloud security firm Tenable highlights an alarming trend: 74% of companies surveyed had storage settings configured incorrectly.
If you think Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) security is simply about setting a strong password, think again. In 2025, threats against VoIP systems have become more sophisticated, necessitating advanced safeguards and strategies. But don’t fret.
Are you still using an older version of Microsoft Office, specifically 2016 or 2019? If so, Microsoft has important news for you. Support for these products officially ended in October 2025. While your applications will still run, they are now vulnerable.
A web browser used to be little more than a portal to websites. Fast forward to today, and web browsers have evolved into intelligent digital platforms. Thanks to AI (artificial intelligence), they’re now packed with smart tools that assist, protect, and even think alongside you as you browse.
Unexpected events such as natural disasters, hardware failures, or cyberattacks can quickly upend your operations. While a well-built business continuity plan (BCP) can minimize those risks, that’s only if it’s properly developed and maintained. But too often, businesses forget crucial details that can undercut their crisis response.
Passwords have been a staple of online security for decades, but relying on them alone is no longer enough. Cybersecurity experts now emphasize the importance of adding layers of protection to defend against today’s more advanced threats.
Why your security strategy must go beyond passwords
Cybersecurity experts at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) now warn that passwords are fundamentally vulnerable and should be avoided whenever possible.
