As tax season ramps up, so do cyber threats — and for businesses, the stakes are especially high. While many people think of tax scams as something that targets individuals, cybercriminals increasingly use tax season to target businesses, payroll teams, finance staff, and leadership.
Spring is in the air, and many businesses use this season to clear up clutter and refresh processes. But your cybersecurity environment deserves the same attention.
As we kick off the new year, one thing is clear: the cyber threat landscape is evolving faster than ever before. What worked to protect your business last year likely won’t be enough this year – and attackers are already planning their next move.
The holiday season is a time for celebration, travel, end-of-year projects, and employees rushing to wrap up the year before heading out for some well-deserved time off. Unfortunately, it’s also one of the busiest times of the year for cybercriminals. With offices lightly staffed, employees shopping online, and companies rushing to close out the year, threat actors take advantage of these distractions – and they do it well.
