Security Alert: Prevent Data Breaches With Privacy Promos
Damage related to cybercrime is projected to hit $6 trillion annually by 2021, per research by Cybersecurity Ventures. As more businesses switch to remote workforces, cybersecurity can no longer be an afterthought. Help clients and consumers stay safe with privacy-related promos that solve the most common security threats.
Threat: Juice Jacking
Promo: USB Data Blockers
Have you or your clients heard of "juice jacking" before? If not, you're risking a serious cybersecurity breach every time you plug in to a public charging station. While it's a convenient way to power up tech on the go, these communal stations could actually drain your bank account. Hackers use that shared connection to access personal information on plugged-in devices, such as addresses, phone numbers, locations and credit card numbers, all while the device's owner is completely unaware. Not good.
To prevent this, educate your clients on the power of USB data blockers. This tiny yet mighty tech plugs into devices to stop all data transfer with the USB port. Not only are they compatible with any charging cable that plugs into a USB port, they're also an extremely cost-effective way to increase security no matter where end-users are.
