Scams are getting slick, but your best defense is still fast, calm thinking. In one minute, you can scan any email, text, or DM and decide if it’s safe. Use the checklist below, then save the quick steps for what to do if you already clicked.

When it comes to cybersecurity, even “routine” actions like applying patches can introduce risk. An update meant to fix one vulnerability can sometimes open the door to another, disrupt operations, or create compliance headaches.

Contingency planning is the process of determining how to respond to disruptive events. Most organizations are so dependent on IT resources, and most IT resources are so complex, interdependent, and attack prone, that contingency planning is essential to enable organizations to mitigate the likelihood, impact, and duration of disruptions to IT systems.

K-12 cybersecurity for school districts is more critical than ever in 2025. With limited resources, increased reliance on digital tools, and the sensitive nature of student data, school districts have become prime targets for cybercriminals. As threats evolve and regulations tighten, it’s essential for school administrators and IT teams to understand the cybersecurity landscape, identify key risks, and take action.

When most people think of cybersecurity threats, they picture outside attackers trying to breach the network. But often, the biggest risks are already inside. Whether it’s human error, shadow IT, or poor policy enforcement, internal vulnerabilities can be just as damaging. In this blog, we’ll explore five commonly overlooked cybersecurity risks within organizations and how you can proactively address them.

At Sedara we’ve observed a recent rise in email bomb attacks. This security bulletin explains what an email bomb is and how attackers use it to launch more harmful attacks. It also outlines practical steps you can take to reduce your risk of becoming a target.

Cyber threats aren’t slowing down—and endpoints are often the first target. That’s why having strong visibility and control at the device level has never been more important. Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is key in today’s security strategies. It helps teams spot, investigate, and respond to threats in real time—before they turn into bigger problems.

If you’re a government contractor working with the Department of Defense (DoD), you’ve likely heard about the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC)—but in 2025, it’s no longer just something to “keep an eye on.” It’s a requirement that’s actively shaping who gets contracts and who doesn’t. Here’s why CMMC is so important now, what’s changed, and what you need to do to stay compliant and competitive.

Cybersecurity has advanced beyond the reliance on firewalls and antivirus software. As cyber threats become more sophisticated and unpredictable, traditional security tools alone are no longer enough. Modern attacks exploit unknown, unmanaged, and overlooked assets, making Attack Surface Management (ASM) essential for a proactive and comprehensive defense.

Online advertising is inevitable on countless websites and services across the Internet. Some attackers have learned to exploit online advertising services to deliver attacks, sometimes called “malvertising.” There are sophisticated attacks in the wild that capture user credentials – even MFA – with a malicious sponsored link and exploit the resulting access.
