Sausalito, Calif. – Mar. 6, 2024
CybSafe believes in nudging and supporting people toward good cybersecurity hygiene.
A new weekly 60-second ‘Security Nudge‘ series launched yesterday on the Cybercrime Magazine Podcast. Each episode is intended to encourage good security behaviors, and help people execute them.
The first nudge warns that the number of CEOs and other C-Suite positions being stymied by an ongoing phishing campaign continues to rise with cybercriminals registering hundreds of cloud account takeovers, or ATOs, over the past 90 days.
Successful account takeover attacks are often the result of weak and reused passwords. Cybsafe recommends defining and enforcing a strong password policy that includes turning on multi-factor authentication, or MFA, for all accounts.
“CybSafe is the ideal sponsor for the nudges because they’re obsessed with measuring, understanding, and influencing human behavior,” says Steve Morgan, founder of Cybersecurity Ventures and Editor-in-Chief at Cybercrime Magazine.
The ‘Security Nudge’ episodes can be found at SecurityNudge.com.
“CISOs and security leaders have told us that ongoing bite-sized nudges can help steer employees towards good cyber behavior,” adds Morgan. “Each nudge shares a threat aimed at users, and a piece of actionable advice.”
