Description

This week, we're focusing on the cybersecurity risks tied to privileged accounts — the high-level access that IT professionals and admins hold. From major breaches at Marriott and Uber to lesser-known takedowns through personal Gmail accounts, attackers are targeting the people with the most access. We cover why multi-factor authentication (MFA) is non-negotiable for these accounts, the importance of bifurcated access, and why knowing every admin account in your ecosystem is step one. If you're managing systems, data, or SAAS platforms, this episode is a wake-up call to lock down your digital kingdom.
