With lockdowns being imposed in every country, digital usage, particularly that of smartphones has surged considerably. Enterprises throw big money and talent at security, but they still make basic mistakes that lead to data breaches. Here are a few. In 2019, businesses spent approximately $103 billion on security-related hardware, software, and services, according to IDC—a figure it expects to reach nearly $134 billion by 2022. Still, the data breaches keep coming.

 

As per the 2020 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR), the use of stolen credentials (usernames and passwords) is the top hacking technique in data breach incidents. Using stolen credentials has consistently ranked among the top ways enterprises are breached. Further, enterprises are often their own worst enemy when it comes to credential attacks. It's still too common for teams to hard-code and embed passwords and encryption keys within devices, applications, and even software repositories. Until these habits stop, these types of attacks are going to continue.

Secondly, enterprises regularly slip on the basics, which costs them big when it comes to data breaches, regulatory fines, forensics investigations, downtime, and irritated customers. Organizations that follow best practices, like using VPNs and two-factor authentication, are well-positioned to handle a remote workforce securely.
