The Important Role of Two-factor Authentication in Cyber Protection for Businesses

By the end of 2021, businesses will be hit by ransomware every 11 seconds. Phishing and spear-phishing continue to be the number one infection vector and administrators are quite often the target. Of course, in many large organizations the administrators that control resources and access to data are well aware of these threats and can avoid this trap. In many small- to medium businesses, it’s much more of an issue for admins. And, when admins seem difficult to compromise, cybercriminals can still attack users with higher privileges and then escalate to the admin level where they can do serious, lasting harm.
