Can we all agree that this is a strange, confusing, and stressful time to be living through?  That none of us really know what’s going to happen, or what the future holds?  While restaurants, airlines, cruise ships, and countless other businesses are struggling, there’s one group of people that don’t seem to be slowing down at all, and that’s cybercriminals. 
They’re exploiting this crisis and taking full advantage of people’s fear and panic, often causing untold damage in the process. 
We at Pivot Point have received countless calls from customers with questions about the changes that this pandemic has brought on. How do they stay safe? What should they be focused on? How do they keep their companies safe during these trying times?  While he’s usually the host of the show, on this episode John Verry, the CISO and Managing Partner here at Pivot Point Security, sat down to discuss a few of the biggest challenges he sees as companies try to stay safe in this current landscape.    He talked through: 

• Why all the people working from home could present a challenge
• How to safeguard against increased social engineering and phishing attacks. 
• What to do if vendors start closing up shop
