The remote workforces often connected to their organization’s inner corporate network using outdated vulnerable technologies that became a favorite attack vector of hackers. Corporate VPNs were often attacked.
Each security breach costs organizations millions of dollars. Data breaches in 2020 were expensive to fix because each security incident disrupted normal business activities, often violated governmental security and privacy statutes that included monetary penalties, and they inflicted harm to the organization’s reputation if they involved ransomware and data leakage.
To help counter the explosion of cyber attacks, in 2021 Safe-T offers a Free Review of Organizations’ Networks and Attack Footprint. This no-cost plan is applicable to eligible organizations as defined by the Safe-T Security Team. Contact Safe-T for an evaluation of the applicability of the free review to your organization.
As you can see from the chart, Safe-T has outlined four different types of attacks:
Ransomware Attack
Data Breach
Credential Theft
VPN Attack
There are many variables to look at and try to secure – patching the VPN, replacing a VPN for one without vulnerabilities (but who can guarantee this….), patching all 3rd party software, securing file storages, securing all systems against elevation of permissions, etc.
It is like the story about the small boy who stuck his finger in the dam; block one hole, and the water will find another hole to get through.
One of the major mitigation security initiatives that can help enterprises cope with such attacks is the ZTNA – Zero Trust Network Access. Achieving zero trust requires improved and continuous user authentication.
While multifactor authentication (MFA) and identification providers have improved the authentication process, there are numerous integration and maintenance challenges they have not solved, including securing non web applications that are ordinarily not MFA compatible.
Safe-T personnel can help you determine if Safe-T’s solutions can enhance your organization’s ability to protect its vital resources using its innovative network and application access solutions.
