Passwords have been used for decades to protect all types of information, but there are many challenges associated with them. Password fatigue, the feeling from employees of being frustrated by the numerous passwords one needs to remember for different accounts, poses a challenge for enterprises as it can lead to users resorting to weak or reused passwords, compromising security, and increasing the risk of unauthorized access and potential data breaches. Securely managing many user passwords...

The concept of Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) promotes a security approach that assumes no implicit trust in any user or device, regardless of its location or network context. Lately, we explained why every organization should have a cybersecurity strategy in place, using a 7-pillars approach to categorize all the different layers, modules, and functionalities that such a strategy can possibly include. Today, we will discuss how ISEC7, your Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP), can help your...

With the exponential rise of quantum computing in recent years, current encryption algorithms used to secure our data and communications networks are at risk of becoming obsolete. Using the Shor algorithm, the power of a quantum computer will be able to break modern encryption standards sparking the largest cryptographic migration in the history of computing – requiring organizations to replace legacy encryption with quantum-safe cryptography.

Nowadays most employees are provided with the ability to work remotely and access their work data and services from virtually any location, on any device, and at any time. While this may be an improvement in terms of offering employees more of a work-life balance, employees still have one *little* thing to worry about: SECURITY. Easier access to more services from more devices and locations translates into an exponentially increased surface of attack, so a comprehensive security strategy must...

In our last blog, we talked about the current challenges with cryptography that urgently need to be addressed, considering the exponential rise of quantum computing and the risk posed to the security of our communications. Today, we will review the existing technological approaches from the industry to solve these challenges and ensure our communications will remain secure for years to come from both traditional and quantum computer cyberattacks.

As we discussed in a recent blog post, quantum computing, like any major technological advance, will bring a lot of good things, but it also poses a serious risk to the security of our communications, making them vulnerable to new quantum-powered attacks performed by state-sponsored cybercriminals. While most technologies used to secure our data were believed to be secure and “unbreakable” some years ago, they will certainly not be in the years to come. Quantum computing is accelerating...
