Your Biggest Cybersecurity Vulnerability Isn’t Your Technology.

In a recent conversation with The Business of Cybersecurity, David Cottingham talks with Neil Hughes about why traditional password practices, outdated access credentials and the rise of AI phishing scams are creating a perfect storm for risk. Attackers aren’t just breaking down doors anymore, but they are walking through them with stolen identities and moving quietly through your systems with credentials that look legitimate.

Cottingham dives into how most leaders know there needs to be change but between modernizing identity systems and the fear of disturbing daily operations, that leads them to feeling stuck in their old ways. The good news is the realistic path forward is closer than most leaders think; it also doesn’t require starting over and tearing everything down.

This podcast highlights the importance of having layered authentication as a path forward to helping organizations have less attacks.

Modern cybersecurity is no longer about protecting networks, but it’s about continuously verifying and securing every identity that is accessing your system.
