It's no secret that news of cyberattacks and data breaches that cause significant damage are becoming increasingly frequent in cybersecurity. Malicious actors are also constantly coming up with new threats, such as zero day attacks that are designed to avoid detection and bypass traditional security measures. It's crucial to take a comprehensive and global stance on this issue, rather than relying on a single security layer.
The growing network perimeter is a fact of life. Attacks on corporate networks can take many forms, such as viruses, backdoors, denial of service (DoS) attacks, macros, remote logins, phishing emails, social engineering, and spam. In this evolving threat landscape, firewalls continue to play a key role in securing our networks and devices.
In sports, the most successful teams master the art of strategic combinations. The same is true within the cybersecurity arena. In today’s expanding and complex threat landscape, trying to beat cyber opponents with a starting lineup of disparate point solutions is a losing strategy. How much better would your cyber defenses be with correlated threat intelligence across each of your key security solutions?

When was the last time you received a phishing attempt through text? I’m guessing it was earlier this week, if not at some point today. Being part of the cybersecurity community keeps us watchful and aware of the ways scammers try to steal our information. But how adept are our parents at spotting these scams? The dangers of online scams and mobile phishing are real and everywhere. Yet, many of our parents and grandparents are navigating this new form of deception without much understanding.
The factors that pose risks to companies are constantly changing. Clinging to a single defense strategy can be counterproductive, as this strategy can quickly become outdated and ineffective. As a managed service provider (MSP), you may have found that your customers are unwilling to consider new cybersecurity tools unless there is a problem, or they aren’t satisfied with their existing solution.
