Credentials — The #1 Organizational Security Weakness
Verizon’s 2022 Data Breach Report — Insights for Cloud Security Professionals
I owe this report to Alexandre BLANC Cyber Security’s Newletter https://www.linkedin.com/posts/alexandre-blanc-cyber-security-88569022_verizon-notifies-prepaid-customers-their-activity-6988213191633707009-DuFQ
It reads “Credentials — The #1 Organizational Security Weakness as “Key Findings for Cloud Security Professionals”.
Out of 4,250 data breaches Verizon analyzed, approximately:
- 50% were enabled through credentials
This finding reconfirms how crucial it is to make the credentials less vulnerable to compromise.
A valid solution to this problem exists but is still little known to the people to whom it must be known, presumably for the reasons examined here — “What Separates Who Needs from Who Provides” https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hitoshikokumai_apples-killing-the-password-heres-everything-activity-6973461696308805632-3Cni
