The short answer for why your login needs to be more complex is that hackers leveled up.

While the ongoing development of quantum computing is a real threat—since it’s capable of testing nearly infinite keys simultaneously—you do not need a supercomputer to break a weak password today. A modern graphics card, the kind found in a standard gaming PC, can shred a basic 8-character password in under sixty seconds. If a hobbyist can do it, imagine what a professional syndicate can do.

What’s your business’ biggest network security weakness? Contrary to popular belief, it’s not your security solutions like your firewall and antivirus; it’s your employees and their everyday practices that put your business at the most risk. Today, we want to cover the three most common accidental ways your employees might be putting your business at risk (and what you can do about them).

Security can be challenging, even when you have the requisite protections in place. Passwords are too easy to forget, and a fob or token can be misplaced. One thing that’s a lot harder to forget or lose, however: your fingerprint.

Why not take advantage of what you and your entire team inherently possess to help protect your business? Let’s dive into how biometrics—who you are—is quickly overtaking “what you know.”

Password sharing in the workplace might seem harmless at first glance. However, it poses various hidden dangers that can threaten the security of a company's data. Employees might share passwords for convenience, but it's crucial to address the risks involved. Imagine a scenario where someone inadvertently shares a password with a colleague who leaves the company abruptly. This simple mistake could lead to unauthorized access, jeopardizing sensitive business information and other critical assets.

Absolutely nobody likes dealing with passwords. They’re annoying, hard to remember, and yet, somehow, hackers seem to have no problem cracking them. That’s where password managers come in. They take the stress out of remembering a hundred different logins while keeping your business secure. If you’re still relying on sticky notes or using the same password for everything so you can remember it, it’s time to make the switch.

Protecting your business’ accounts is something we will advocate for on repeat. You’ll hear us tell you about complex and unique passwords and multi-factor authentication until you’re sick of hearing it. But one tool that our clients sometimes forget is the password manager—an equally useful tool that can help your business keep passwords safe and secure.

You should always use strong passwords for each and every account. Cybercriminals don’t need to put much effort into cracking a password these days—it only takes a little software and standard computer hardware to crack millions of passwords in just a second or two.

The more complex and random a password is, the more secure it is.

But coming up with (and memorizing) complex passwords is really difficult. This trick should make it a whole lot easier.
