Cybercrime is rapidly becoming one of the most significant threats to businesses worldwide, and the costs are skyrocketing. In 2024 alone, global cybercrime damages are expected to exceed $10.5 trillion annually, up from $3 trillion in 2015. This surge is driven by increasingly sophisticated attacks, such as ransomware, phishing, and AI-powered threats that exploit human vulnerabilities. For organizations, the impact goes far beyond financial loss—it includes reputational damage, loss of customer trust, and significant disruptions to operations. The stakes have never been higher, and it's clear that traditional security measures are no longer enough. Investing in advanced cybersecurity solutions is essential to staying ahead of these evolving threats. It's not just about protecting data; it's about safeguarding the future of your business. Now is the time to rethink your approach to cybersecurity and ensure you're equipped to defend against the rising tide of cybercrime. #DOFtechnology #ServiceDriven #Cybercrime

In today’s evolving cyber threat landscape, user credentials have emerged as prime targets for cybercriminals. As cybercriminals become increasingly sophisticated, they are drawn to credentials because they provide access to valuable information, financial resources, and control over critical systems. This shift in focus is driven by the immense value these credentials hold, making them highly sought after in the digital world. We are seeing an alarming rise in attacks that exploit user credentials through various methods, including phishing, brute force attacks, and advanced social engineering tactics. Understanding the motivations behind these threats is essential for safeguarding your digital assets. On this episode of 5 Minute Fridays we are joined by Shomari Smith from CrowdStrike and delve into the factors driving the increase in credential-focused attacks and the evolving techniques used by bad actors.

Concerns grow as budgets tighten. More leaders look for ways to get what they need to keep their organization running safely. DOF can help customers turn big, up-front expenses into smaller payments over time. Example: - CIO A (concerned they can’t afford all 3 important projects), needs MFA, email security, and wants to change firewalls during the 2025 fiscal year. -DOF’s solution: 3 YR, interest-free bundle of the 3 projects together. - CIO A has additional dollars available in the 2025 budget for “rainy days,” and avoids upcoming license price increases without large upfront costs. - CIO A turns 3 bills into 1 annual payment.
