When your users save passwords in the browser, it makes it easy for the bad guys to hack into your network.
Verizon’s new 2020 Data Breach Investigations Report shows that attackers are increasingly successful using a combo of phishing and password-stealing malware to grab user credentials from web browsers.
Once hackers gain access, they can steal usernames and passwords to any accounts your users save in web browsers. With 50% of employees using the same password for work and personal accounts, this makes the risk of credential theft and account takeovers even greater!
Find out now if browser-saved passwords are putting your organization at risk.
