Moscow has often been forward about threatening or delivering cyber-attacks, and as its invasion of Ukraine continues, concerns are on the rise.
As technologies evolve, email remains the most widely used online communication technology but is also less secure than other methods. A big part of today’s caution is warning businesses and consumers to be extremely careful with the email and messaging platforms they use. According to a study from the information technology (IT) security firm Trend Micro Inc., Big Tech cloud-based email servers are the most targeted.
The COVID-19 pandemic has also contributed to the threat, as in some cases, employees working from home have established distance from their companies’ IT departments and necessary security protocols. Lax security behavior can open up a new level of threat using mobile phishing scams.
Phishing continues to grow as a threat and has evolved to include a broad range of threats, from email to texts and mobile phone calls.
Smishing, another form of phishing using mobile phone texting and short message service (SMS) as the cyber target, is built to obtain information like credit card numbers and other personal information.
In response, more secure platforms such as Meta Platforms Inc.’s (NASDAQ:FB) WhatsApp and Signal Advance Inc. (OTC:SIGL) have drawn an increasing number of security-conscious consumers to their applications.
Sekur reports that all of its data is transferred in a multilayered, 2,048-bit encrypted tunnel using its proprietary HeliX technology, with no virtual private network needed to secure a connection. Sekur hosts all communications exclusively in its Swiss secure servers. The extra layer of security and privacy is beginning to pay dividends for Sekur, which has taken a very calculated route to gain more exposure.
“I don’t take a salary, and we have increased revenue every quarter with a US$30 million market cap and US$6 million in the bank. We have zero debt and are growing every month. Where do you find that?” Sekur CEO and Founder Alain Ghiai told Benzinga. “We want to show that we are the only game in town when it comes to privacy and data privacy. Privacy is our culture.”
