You may have heard the term Multi-Factor authentication (or MFA). Even if you haven’t, it’s likely that you are using it today with one or more of your online accounts. When your online banking and credit card applications require you to receive a one-time authorization code via text message and then plug it into the app after you log in – that’s one type of multi-factor authentication (MFA). When your online app asks your phone app to authenticate you, via thumbprint or a “is this you” prompt, that’s MFA. And while Multi-Factor authentication is a minor interruption for the user, it allows your financial institutions to make sure it’s really you logging on—giving you peace of mind that a cybercriminal who might have gotten your login credentials can’t get in and take your money.
There is no magic bullet when it comes to IT. But the right technology partner can take your company out of a defensive, reactive mode…and put you on the offensive where you take a proactive stance.

In military theory, warfare divides into three levels. The first is tactics, the second is operations, and the third is strategy. Each of these levels provides several aspects into the art of war, making you much more versatile as a practitioner. When it comes to cyber security, there is no difference. When trying to learn hacking, it is easy to focus on the commands, tools, and techniques to hack your target. However, this can deviate you from the bigger picture of why you are hacking in the first place.
Just as virtualization has proven beneficial for server infrastructures, the same is true for firewalls. Virtual firewalls provide the same functions as physical firewalls along with additional benefits. For example, virtual firewalls lower the total cost of ownership (TCO) of your implementations because more than one instance can be deployed on a single physical appliance.
Do your end-users who handle files with intense graphics complain about performance when they work remotely? It might be time to add Graphical Processor Units (GPUs) to your servers. GPUs have moved beyond cutting-edge technology and the early-adopter stage. With many technology vendors investing heavily in GPUs, they are on the brink of becoming a mainstream technology.
