When we do Security Risk Assessment or Penetration Tests, we almost always find a few common vulnerabilities, and they are ALL dangerous to your business. Here are the top 5 we see: Unpatched systems (holes in your security that hackers can use to get in your network and infect your system) Weak authentication (no extra security processes like multi-factor authentication to keep you secure if someone figures out a password) Lack of access controls (you don’t have master control over your software or devices) Insufficient logging and monitoring (not all devices are being constantly monitored for suspicious activity) Weak mobile device security (or worse, personal devices that are unprotected are used to access work documents) Failing to fix any one of these could result in a costly data breach. Make sure your organization is SECURE. 📲For a FREE Security Risk Assessment to find out if you’re making any of these mistakes, book here - https://lnkd.in/echCYbjP
