Does your current IT provider track where your staff are logging in from across the globe? If not, your data could be exposed to significant risk.
The map you see here demonstrates all the log in attempts a client received last month:
25% of their staff’s email accounts experienced, on average, 100 unsuccessful login attempts each. That’s a total of 2,500 login attempts.
Cybercriminals often find these email accounts by scraping addresses from the web or through massive data breaches, such as the 2021 Facebook breach, where 500 million accounts were exposed. Using automated bots, they attempt billions of password combinations in search of a match. These unsuccessful attempts are frequently traced back to countries notorious for cybercrime, such as China and Korea, but they can originate from anywhere in the world.
This client has now upgraded to our secure support, where logins are restricted to the business’s country location only. Employees must request access to the specific country they’re visiting for the duration of their stay.
This proactive approach allows us to safeguard your data from cybercriminals, ensuring your organisation remains protected at all times.
Don’t leave your security to chance – if your IT provider isn’t monitoring login locations, your data is vulnerable.
