Do you have a #cybersecurity retainer and have you used all your funds? If not, consider doing a #PenTest , incident response plan review, or #tabletop exercise to shore up vulnerabilities ahead of 2025. No retainer? No problem. Now is a great time to evaluate your cybersecurity defenses and create a plan for 2025.

Did you know that a #cyberattack occurs every 39 seconds? Here’s a few defense solutions that Kivu offers to ensure businesses stay prepared and protected in an increasingly risky digital landscape. From real-time threat monitoring to leveraging AI and #automation , these tactics not simplify #cybersecurity efforts and bolster your defenses.

In 2024 (thus far) lack of multi-factor authentication (MFA) controls was a contributing factor in more than 70% of business email compromises (BEC) investigated by Kivu Consulting Inc Incident Response team. The recent announcement to enforce the requirement of MFA registration as part of the security defaults on new Microsoft 365 tenants from the beginning of December 2024 is a welcome change. This coupled with the previous announcement in November 2024 requiring MFA via a Microsoft managed policy for all Administrator accounts leveraging services such as Entra, 365 and Exchange, will hopefully reduce the risk of compromise. No longer can MFA be seen as an inconvenience. #MicrosoftEntra #Microsoft365 #MFA
