Artificial Intelligence (AI) being used to carry out cybercrime isn’t new, but as AI becomes more advanced, so do the tools that cybercriminals are using. One of the most recent AI-enabled cyber threats we’ve seen is cybercriminals using voice-cloning technology to carry out scam calls. You can protect yourself from AI voice-cloning scam calls by blocking spam calls, not picking up calls from unknown numbers and creating a safe word with your family in case a legitimate emergency occurs.

Joined by the popular Mac Admins podcast cast, we dive into Apple security and privacy, and how Macs are being integrated into workplaces everywhere. Find out whether an Apple product on its own keeps you secure and safe from viruses, or if you need additional security apps to protect your devices.

Enabling Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is a cybersecurity best practice that helps protect online accounts from unauthorized access; however, not all forms of MFA are created equally in terms of security. There are ways that cybercriminals can bypass MFA. Some MFA methods are more vulnerable to cyber attacks and are often exploited by cybercriminals. There are methods of MFA that do a better job of protecting your online accounts; you just have to choose the correct option.

We recently introduced labs, a new and pioneering space in the 1Password apps that lets customers opt in to test experimental features.

Privilege creep is a cybersecurity term that describes the gradual accumulation of network access levels beyond what an individual needs to do their job. Users need specific privileges to perform tasks and job functions. These privileges can include accessing sensitive data, installing new programs, updating software, configuring networks, adding new users and more. Not every user needs to be granted all privileges to do their job.

Kerberoasting is a form of cyber attack that targets service accounts using the Kerberos authentication protocol. Attackers exploit the authentication protocol to extract password hashes and crack the plaintext passwords attached to the account. These attacks are prevalent because they can be difficult to notice and mitigate.

If you think security is all about risk management, cybersecurity expert Greg van der Gaast thinks you’ve got it all wrong.

Working remotely has allowed organizations to enhance their efficiency and provide employees with flexibility. However, remote work comes with cybersecurity risks that can often lead to data breaches and jeopardize an organization’s security. The five cybersecurity risks of remote work are using weak passwords, an insecure internet connection, unencrypted file sharing, an expanded attack surface and the use of personal devices.
