Employees often use their corporate email address to sign up for third-party websites. They’re not intending to cause harm; they’re simply trying to minimize the number of login credentials they have to remember. When those websites are breached, the employee’s information is exposed to cybercriminals, and if they have reused their corporate passwords, your organization is at risk. Criminals can easily exploit the exposed credential pairs to gain access to corporate systems – jeopardizing customer information, funds, IP, and sensitive employee personally identifiable information (PII).
The use of stolen credentials remains the #1 way criminals gain access to corporate networks and the sensitive information within. Employee accounts provide compelling access to corporate networks and systems, making them attractive targets for criminals.
