As the new year approaches it leaves many questioning what it will bring as far as the safety and security of their company.

Every day, there are cyber threats are over 2,000 cyberattacks, and the number will continue to increase.

In this blog we will discuss the top cyber security trends and predictions to look for in 2023.

Voice phishing aka Vishing: is a social engineering technique that cyber criminals use in which they call the victim and trick them into disclosing their private information. They may also convince the victim to give the hacker remote access to their device.

SMS phishing aka Smishing: is similar to vishing but instead of phone calls, the cyber attacker uses SMS or text messaging to get access to the victim's personal data on their smartphone or text-capable device.

While many professionals have been more understanding of background noises due to the passing pandemic and the rise of work-from-home and hybrid employees, it still doesn’t provide a good experience to have too much background noise when on a call. So how can a company help their employees whether in or out of the office reduce the amount of noise from their calls? 

What Is the Difference Between the Cloud Computing and Cloud Storage?

Cloud Computing includes running software over the internet, and cloud storage includes storing data on servers that are online. This allows the data to be accessible over the internet as opposed to requiring the data to be accessed through a physical business location.

Cloud storage saves data & files to an external non-physical location. Cloud storage ensures a company’s data is kept secure and readily available in case onsite data is compromised by an unanticipated situation, like a flood, fire, or water damage. A cyber-attack or other threat can also be prevented using a secure cloud storage solution. 

Since moving to the cloud, many businesses believe their data is now more secure. But that isn't always the case. Your company can still be at risk for data breaches, even if your data is stored in the cloud. Here are some cloud security risks that companies need to be aware of.
