Did you hear about the recent data breach at the European Space Agency?
Many people assume that a major organization like that can’t be infiltrated. After all, agencies like this work with satellites, rockets, and advanced science. Surely they can afford strong defenses, too? If they can be affected by a cyber incident, what does that mean for everyone else?
Introduction
Firewalls, antivirus software, and monitoring tools are essential parts of modern cybersecurity. Google alone blocks over 15B spam emails every single day.
Despite all of the protective technology in place, however, most breaches don’t begin with a technical failure.

Quick chats have become the heartbeat of modern work. We message teammates, summarize meetings, draft emails, and even ask AI tools to help us think through tough problems. Over 987M people interact with AI chat bots for personal and professional reasons.

If you’ve ever logged into your work computer from home, had IT “take over” your screen to fix a problem, or accessed company files while traveling, then you’ve used remote access tools—even if you didn’t realize it.

Have you ever ordered food or groceries directly to your front step? How many times per week do you log into an app that lets you order a meal directly to the door?
Hundreds of millions of people order delivery through similar applications every single day.
Introduction
When you clock into work, what’s the first thing that you do? Besides grab a cup of coffee, many of us start the day by clearing out our inboxes.
Answering emails in an appropriate time frame matters, but we shouldn’t speed through our inbox to clear out the new mail, either.
Introduction
Most people imagine data breaches as elite hackers breaking into corporate networks, but in reality, a surprising amount of sensitive information leaks out through simple, ordinary behaviors that even you might perform in the office.
Introduction
Everybody loves convenience. For example, many of us will choose to order food instead of driving across town, or to use a self-service kiosk instead of talking to a customer service agent. We like applications that auto-fill passwords, maps that remember our routes, smart devices that answer questions instantly, and online accounts that sync across every device we own.
Introduction
Working from “anywhere” has become the new normal. Whether you log in from a home office, coworking space, airport or coffee shop, approximately 60% of workers. While flexibility boosts productivity, it also introduces a unique challenge: Keeping company data secure outside the safety of the corporate network.
Introduction
When people think of cyberattacks, they often picture malware, phishing emails, or ransomware. Sometimes, though, attackers don’t need code to compromise an organization; they just need a convincing voice.
Voice phishing, or vishing, has been skyrocketing in the past two years, with a 170% rise in deepfake vishing in the latter half of 2025.
AI clones real voice audio to create a “deepfake,” which is a very good copy of someone’s speech patterns.
