Hi,

Of late, cyber-criminal activities across the globe have assumed such grave proportions that all enterprises - big and small, are exposed to security breaches and identity thefts of various kinds. Many sabotage were found to have been caused by the insiders of the enterprises - either disgruntled staff or greedy techies or sacked employees.

Lack of well-defined internal controls and access restrictions generally pave the way for security incidents. Particularly, as stolen identities seem to have served as the ‘hacking channel’ for many cyber-crimes, improper management of the administrative passwords is believed to be at the root of a good number of security threats.

Security experts strongly believe that many security incidents (though not all) are actually avoidable by placing access restrictions and well-defined password policies.

From ManageEngine Password Manager Pro, we have released an advisory, which discusses the causes of security incidents in detail and suggests ways to effectively tackle the challenge.
