1). CYBER AWARENESS: How does Reverse DNS Work? First you learn about web hosting and why it’s impossible to start a website without it, then you learn the importance of backing up your website, and then years later, you encounter the term “Reverse DNS”. ”Reverse DNS” can help keep your website safe from email spammers and bad server neighbours, and it can even help you make better marketing decisions and scope out your competitors. This powerful tool is definitely worth knowing about

2). THREAT INTEL: There’s a fine line between incompetence, negligence, and collusion Cyberattacks are not solely used for Cybercrime, but for Money Laundering and rebalancing global wealth. Like the blatant corruption that has been allowed to go on before, it is rarely, if ever attributed and simply passed off as some ‘Threat Actor, or aggressive Nation State. The narrative is always pre-set.” We live in unprecedented times where Vote Rigging, Corruption, Cyberattacks, Fraud and the loss of many lives have become daily news.

3). VPN – Understanding The Virtual Private Network (VPN) A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is an essential technology for SMEs as it enables secure and private communication over a public network. By encrypting data and hiding the user’s IP address, VPNs establish a secure connection between the employees’ devices and the company’s network, ensuring the privacy and security of sensitive information.
