RAM and storage price trends for organizations are becoming a critical topic for IT leaders, finance teams, and government technology managers alike. Across industries, the cost of essential hardware components (especially system memory (RAM) and data storage) has been climbing steadily, making infrastructure planning more complex than it has been in years.
Cybersecurity experts Rob Wright (Dark Reading), David Jones (Cybersecurity Dive), and Alissa Irei (TechTarget Search Security) recently came together to discuss the future of online security. Let’s take a look at their insights on major trends and new risks to help businesses better navigate the challenges on the horizon.
A massive unsecured database credential exposure has put an astonishing 149 million usernames and passwords at risk, underscoring how dangerously easy it can be for sensitive login data to be left accessible on the public internet.
Bluetooth audio security risks are becoming a growing concern for businesses and government agencies as wireless headphones, earbuds, and speakers become essential tools for virtual meetings and daily operations. Recent research has uncovered serious flaws in the Bluetooth pairing process used by hundreds of millions of devices, exposing them to unauthorized access, eavesdropping, and even location tracking.
Strong passwords are one of the easiest and most effective ways to protect online accounts. Still, many businesses use weak or reuse credentials. Learning how to create stronger passwords can significantly lower your business’s risk without adding unnecessary complexity to your security practices.
Letting visitors use your company’s Wi-Fi might seem like good hospitality, but it could come at a high cost. Whether it’s accidental access to sensitive files or slowing down your connection, a poorly configured network can create unnecessary risk.
Mobile spyware protection is becoming a critical priority as smartphones play a central role in daily business and government operations. Employees rely on iPhones and Android devices to access email, internal systems, cloud platforms, and sensitive data.
We give our IT teams the keys to the kingdom to keep operations running. Yet, that access creates a massive blind spot. Recent trends show disgruntled tech workers bypassing the very security measures they helped build. Trust is necessary for business, but blind faith in your technical staff leaves your company wide open to attack.
Microsoft has announced that it will finally remove support for an outdated encryption method in Windows (obsolete Windows encryption cipher) that has been exploited by hackers for decades. This change is significant for organizations and government IT teams because it marks one of the most significant shifts in Windows security in years.
With cyberthreats escalating and major breaches costing billions, many organizations are embracing the zero trust approach, a holistic methodology that assumes compromise and requires constant verification across all devices and applications. This guide lists the practical, actionable steps security leaders must take to move beyond initial pilots and effectively implement a comprehensive zero trust architecture that effectively counters modern threats.
