One username, one password...is all it takes for your security to come crashing down.
It was recently reported that Verkada, a company that sells security cameras, was hacked. The cybercriminals methods of hacking were not advanced and it was reported that they simply found an admin username and password “publicly exposed” on the internet. Once they had the administrative account information, they were able to access deeper into the network, with ease.
The hackers now had access to live surveillance feeds of over 150,000 surveillance cameras.
Why is this important to you? The recent surveillance breach should be a reminder to us all how easily hackers can gain access to thousands of pieces from 1 simple username and password. It took one username and one password for many businesses, and even more individuals, to be exposed.

Do You Want to Minimize Unplanned Expenses on Technology?
