Cybersecurity has emerged as the business imperative in the modern digital world. Regardless of their business nature, size, and industry, global organizations have started investing heavily in cyber defense and training. However, despite the growing emphasis on securing business, several myths and misconceptions about cybersecurity prevent companies from building a robust cybersecurity posture.
This blog will address very common cybersecurity myths and the facts behind them.

When considering how to increase data security, medical devices are often ignored. This is because devices don’t typically store protected health information. They are, however, connected to the Internet and could therefore link hackers to other areas of the network.
A strong password practice is only the start. A robust security system comes with a multi-layered defense. At a minimum, organizations must employ two-factor authentication and data access monitoring.
