Excerpt:

The actors use stolen employee credentials that they acquire via spear-phishing to infiltrate deeper and move laterally in the company’s network.

=================================================================
Why you would want Wave VSC 2.0 (MFA-multi-factor authentication) protecting your network. It's better security! And it could easily prevent the problems in the article above! Please see excerpts below!

Excerpts:

Token-free, password-free user authentication

We know you’ve dreamt about shredding your list of passwords. Go on and do it.

Because you are starting the authentication process in the device’s hardware, the user doesn’t have to interact with it. All users see is their usual Windows log-in screen – no more additional passwords to access the VPN or other resources. They just sign in once, and the secure credentials in their TPMs securely and quickly connect them to everything they need. Say goodbye to user frustration and slow OS performance.

=================================================================
Secure device & user authentication

Sometimes it feels like security is more effective at deterring your users than hackers. But you still have to protect your enterprise resources, and we’re here to help. We take pride in securing your network, data, and resources to an unprecedented level, without causing a revolt from either IT or your users. In fact, your users probably won’t even know we’re there.

Here’s how it works:

Trusted Platform Module (TPM) + Wave’s ERAS for TPM Management = hardware-secured, fully-managed authentication

Most of your devices already come with TPMs (check out our “What is a TPM?” brochure if you’re not sure why this is exciting). This security chip comes attached to the motherboard of most enterprise-class PCs. There’s nothing “add-on” about it. The TPM provides a verifiable, unique identity for each machine.

Wave’s ERAS for TPM Management gives IT remote, centralized management of all TPMs on enterprise computers and tablets.

With this control, IT can set policies and dictate which machines and users have authority to access which resources. IT can ensure that only known and approved devices are accessing your network. And what’s more, IT can prove it with detailed activity logs.
