Cybersecurity doesn’t have to be a burden! Even a few small actions can make a big difference in protecting your online life. Here are 3 simple steps to start: 1. Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – Think of it as your personal superhero, fighting off hackers with every login attempt! 2. Update Your Software – A fresh update is like a cup of coffee for your devices. It keeps them awake and ready to defend you! 3. Use Strong Passwords – If your password is "123456," it’s time for a change. Try something like your favorite quote or a unique phrase instead!

Assurit has officially upgraded its ISO 27001 certification to the latest version - from ISO 27001:2013 to ISO 27001:2022! ISO 27001 is the world's best-known standard for information security management systems (ISMS) and defines requirements an ISMS must meet. The ISO 27001 standard provides companies of any size and from all sectors of activity with guidance for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system. Conformity with ISO 27001 means that an organization or business has put in place a system to manage risks related to the security of data owned or handled by the company, and that this system respects all the best practices and principles enshrined in this International Standard. As an ISO 27001:2022 certified company, Assurit is now positioned to continue to scale responsibly while maintaining compliance with security requirements for current and future clients.
