The “Session Cookie” Hijack: Why MFA Can’t Always Save You
MFA is a strong front-door lock. But it’s not the only thing that decides whether someone can get in.After you sign in, your browser keeps you logged in using a session token (often stored as a cookie). It’s the digital version of a wristband at an event: once you’ve been checked, the wristband proves you belong there. If an attacker steals that wristband, they may not need to beat your MFA prompt at all.That’s the core of session cookie hijacking. [...]
The “Legacy Debt” Audit: Identifying the 3 Oldest Risks in Your Server Room
The most dangerous thing in a server room is often the phrase, “Don’t touch that.”It’s usually said with a half-joke and a grimace. It refers to the old box that “still works”, runs something important, and has survived so many fixes and workarounds that nobody feels confident changing it anymore.That’s legacy debt. Not just “old tech”, but old tech that’s become a dependency. It’s the kind that quietly accumulates risk until it turns into downtime, security exposure, or an emergency upgrade [...]
The “Backup Exit” Strategy: Can You Move Your Data Without the Vendor’s Help?
When you first sign up for a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform, everything is designed to feel effortless. The problem is that the first real test of a SaaS relationship isn’t the onboarding. It’s the exit. For many small businesses, the front door is wide open, but the emergency exit is bolted shut: exports are incomplete, key data sits in proprietary formats, and leaving requires expensive vendor help.That’s more than inconvenient. It’s a business risk. As teams move toward a workforce blended with humans and [...]
Micro-SaaS Vetting: The 5-Minute Security Check for Browser Add-ons
Browser add-ons have a funny reputation. They feel “small”. A quick install. A tiny productivity boost. A harmless little helper that lives in your toolbar.But in practice, a browser extension is more like a micro-SaaS vendor sitting inside your browser session. It can see what you see, interact with the pages you open, and sometimes access the same cloud apps your business runs on all day.That’s why a browser extension security check matters. Not because every extension is bad, but because [...]
LinkedIn “Social Engineering”: Protecting Your Staff from Fake Recruitment Scams
A fake recruiter message is one of the cleanest social engineering tricks around because it doesn’t look like a trick.That’s why LinkedIn recruitment scams work so well inside real businesses. They don’t arrive as malware. They arrive as a normal conversation that nudges someone toward one small action: click this link, open this file, “verify” this detail, move the chat to a different app.A few simple checks, a couple of hard-stop rules, and an easy way to report suspicious outreach can [...]
“Clean Desk” 2.0: Securing Your Home Office from Physical Data Leaks
In the traditional office, a “Clean Desk” policy was a simple habit: shred the sensitive stuff, lock it away, and don’t leave passwords where someone can see them.In 2026, the same idea still matters but the “desk” has changed. For many teams, the home office is now the default workspace, and that means physical access can quickly become digital access. An unlocked screen, a shared device, or a laptop left in the wrong place can expose the same systems your business [...]
