Increasingly sophisticated threats
Phishing attacks, ransomware, online scams and fake websites are now targeting individuals as well as large organisations. Recent trends show that attackers are using increasingly sophisticated technologies. For example, artificial intelligence is now being used not only for defence, but also for attack. AI-based chatbots are being created that pose as real customer service agents to trick users into giving up their passwords or banking details. At the same time, the proliferation of IoT (Internet of Things) devices and the rise of remote working have also created new risks.
Digital security is not a luxury, it is a basic necessity. As threats evolve, you need to keep up to protect your data. Protecting against cyber threats is no longer just a matter of technology, it is also a matter of individual awareness. But to do that, you need tools that help you maintain security in a simple and effective way.
Awareness and protection
Ensuring that its customers can browse, shop and communicate online safely is a top priority for Yettel. That’s why it’s offering a 30-day free trial of its NetPajzs service, which can filter out a significant proportion of phishing sites, scams and other threats within the network. Las month, nearly 33% of the hundreds of thousands of NetPajzs users were exposed to phishing attacks that the service helped to block from within the network. While the tool is only one part of a comprehensive data protection strategy, it can help customers navigate the digital world with greater confidence.
To protect your data, use strong, unique passwords combined with multi-factor authentication, such as SMS codes or biometric identification. Update your software regularly to make sure you’re protected by the latest security patches. Minimise data collection and use encryption for sensitive data. When selecting your cloud provider, choose a trusted partner and read the terms of service carefully. A few simple steps can make a big difference to your privacy!
