Are You an Easy Target for Hackers? Take Our Quiz!
Overview
Hey guys, this week on When You Need Them, Ask Neadom, we're going to do a little bit of a different format. We're going to talk about whether you're a sitting duck when it comes to hackers. Are you ready prey for any hacker out there? We've got a test—true or false—is all you need to answer. Write down your notes and we'll give you the results at the end to see how well you did. So, let's jump right in!
Your Employees Are Aware
Question 1: Are your employees aware of the risks to your cyber infrastructure?
Do they understand your security footprint? Password management? How your website and emails work? Are they aware of the different ways hackers can gain access to your information?
Only a Handful of Users
Question 2: Are only a handful of users granted admin access?
Who has the keys to the kingdom? If everyone has full access to everything, answer false. A limited number means two out of ten, or five out of fifty. If access is tightly controlled, answer true.
Use 2FA
Question 3: Are you and your team using two-factor authentication (2FA) on all supported websites?
This includes personal and business accounts like Google, Outlook, and Office 365. If you're not using 2FA everywhere it's available, answer false.
Separate Admin Account
Question 4: Do you have a separate admin account for IT tasks?
If you use the same login for daily work and administrative changes, answer false. If you log in with a separate account for admin tasks, answer true.
Share User Accounts
Question 5: Do you share user accounts?
Shared desks and logins (like “Terminal One” or “Accounting Two”) lead to zero accountability. If you use shared accounts, answer false. If everyone has their own login, answer true.
Summary
Time to tally up your answers. If you answered true to every question, you're rocking and rolling your duck has armor and you're ready to take on hackers.
But if you answered false to even one question, you are at risk. Whether it’s lacking 2FA, using shared accounts, or giving everyone admin access these are simple but critical vulnerabilities.
This quiz is a quick pulse check to see if your organization is ready for potential cyber threats. It’s not exhaustive, but it’s a great place to start.
