iolo.com Article; "New Hacking Software Makes it Imperative to Stop Reusing Passwords"

 

Please note: Feel free to use the copy/graphics below on your website/blog.

 

The vast majority of people online recycle the same passwords across multiple online accounts, making it far easier for hackers to break into their accounts. And now, inexpensive and easy-to-use software has increasingly found its way online to make it even easier for hackers to gain access to websites and devices.

Old methods, new efficiency

"Credential stuffing," as it is known in the cybersecurity space, has been around for a long time. This tactic essentially involves looking for email addresses and passwords that have been dumped online after being stolen from one website or service, and then checking to see whether the same credentials work on another site.

But now, a new generation of credential-stuffing programs is helping unskilled malevolent online actors check the login credentials of millions of users against hundreds of websites and online services. These new hacking tools provide the code required to check whether hundreds of the most popular platforms are accessible with specific, previously leaked usernames and passwords.

It¨s time for a password manager

ByePassThe new tools have made it critical to never reuse or use similar passwords on more than one account. This can all too easily result in your passwords becoming public knowledge--they only have to be leaked once to appear on the lists hackers share.

By far the surest way to protect your login credentials from theft is to use a password manager. A good password manager will not only locally encrypt your passwords in one stored place, calling them up to autofill login info only when you need them. It will also think up complex, random alphanumeric combinations for you, and even scan the internet to see if any of your old passwords have been leaked onto hackers¨ lists. ByePass from iolo technologies can perform all of these tasks for you, as well as securely store your credit card information.

Password management companies estimate that only about one percent of internet users utilize some kind of password manager. Be among the one percent: protect your online credentials while avoiding having to think up, remember, or type passwords with ByePass, available as a stand-alone browser extension, Android mobile app, or as part of the comprehensive PC optimization and security software suite System Mechanic® Ultimate Defense™.

iolo's Massive 60% Off Work From Home Coupon!

 

Sometimes it feels like this day will never come, but when the world fully opens back up after the Covid-19 pandemic, many parts of society, the economy, and the workplace will not be the same.
 
Currently, around 34 percent of US workers are estimated to be working from home. Many will not go back to the old ways of working. A survey of senior finance leaders by the research firm Gartner found that 74 percent of organizations plan to shift some employees to remote work permanently. Consulting company Global Workplace Analytics estimates that when the pandemic is over, 30 percent of the entire workforce will work from home at least a couple times a week. Before the pandemic, that number was in the low single digits.

So why is this figurative tectonic shift in working important to iolo and our valued affiliate partners? Simple. Technology, and most importantly software, is playing an ever-increasingly important role now that knowledge workers have familiarized themselves with its benefits! Video apps like Zoom and chat software like Slack now even carry over into their regular day-to-day life. They're not just for work!
 
iolo has seen a huge spike in sales since the Covid-19 pandemic gained traction, and people were forced to work from home. If you've got an important conference call to make, or you need your PC to be able to handle that huge PowerPoint presentation you've been working on, System Mechanic has you covered with tools like; NetBooster™, Program Accelerator™, Startup Optimizer™ and many more. (And if you switch to some PC gaming after you're done, again, System Mechanic ensures that your system delivers optimum performance). Then there's the issue of security. The Internet is a dangerous place. System Mechanic Ultimate Defense protects remote workers from the many risks out there. Who wants to explain to their manager that they have inadvertently let malware loose on their device(s) or, heaven forbid, the company's internal IT systems?
 
We strongly recommend that affiliates leverage the opportunity to spread the word about iolo's software -- how it's a perfect solution for remote workers. System Mechanic Ultimate Defense in particular. If nothing else, if their PC is working at optimum performance the faster they can get their work done and do something else that they¨d (probably) much rather be doing!
 
To that end, through to October 5th, iolo is running a coupon that gives 60% off either; System Mechanic Ultimate Defense, System Mechanic Pro, or System Mechanic. The code is: workfromhome

Affiliate Masterclass

 

Are you doing any business with California residents? If you're not sure, we would suggest that you check into this question right now. If you are, have you heard about CCPA? Passed unanimously in June 2018, CCPA is the first law in the US to set up a comprehensive set of rules around consumer data. Basically it's broadly similar to the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR.

For the average internet user in California, life under CCPA will not be materially different. For digital marketers [globally], however, this will likely not be the case! Below is an excerpt from the Rakuten Advertising Blog on CCPA. If you do any business in California, read on!

 

What is CCPA and How Can Your Business Ensure Compliance?


The California Consumer Privacy Act, better known as CCPA, was enacted in 2018 and provides new privacy rights to consumers living in California. This and other consumer data and privacy laws impact all facets of digital marketing around the world.

From advertisers to publishers, 2020 has been all about making sure that all aspects of a business are in compliance with these regulations in order to preserve and grow revenue streams.

So, why are we talking about CCPA right now?

It's going to start impacting businesses sooner rather than later. CCPA went into effect on January 1, 2020. Enforcement of compliance with the law begins on July 1, 2020, meaning that advertisers and publishers alike need to get in compliance.

Rakuten Advertising is committed to keeping you informed on the nuances of these laws and providing you with strategies that support compliance and position you for future revenue growth.

On that note, let's get CCPA compliance-ready together!

The California Consumer Privacy Act: A Refresher on the Basics

  • CCPA laws apply to the protection of "personal information" for California residents. The CCPA gives consumers protection of the following 4 rights:

  • The right to "Opt-Out" from the collection of their personal information/data

  • The right to access their personal information/data; under this section, the consumer has the right to:

    • Know which data/information has been collected, stored, and sold.

    • Request access to the personal data collected.

    • Request to correct the personal data/information collected.

  • The right to request that a business, another business, or third party "NOT SELL" personal information/data which has already been collected.

  • The right to request their personal information/data be deleted.

  • "Opt-out" vs. "Opt-in" �C Unlike the EU's GDPR laws under which consumers must have some legal right to collect and use information �C in most cases for ad tech, this means consent, or `opt-in" to their personal information being collected. The CCPA, on the other hand, requires an opt-out. Consumers must be provided the right, accessibility, and proper transparency to opt-out of the sale and collection of their personal information.

  • Enforcement of compliance with the regulations take effect on July 1st, 2020. Regulators are also enforcing a look-back window for compliance with the regulations dating all the way back to January 1st, 2020 when the CCPA officially became part of California law.

Who does the CCPA apply to? And how does the CCPA define "personal information?"

  • All brands (publishers, advertisers, Internet websites, and apps, etc.) that do business with California residents are required to be in compliance with the CCPA.

  • Personal Information is "information that...(directly or indirectly)...is reasonably capable of being associated...with a particular consumer...include[ing]...information regarding a consumer's interaction with an Internet Web site, application, or advertisement."
