Episode 80: The Importance of Social Media Security

A former Tech Executive of the Year provides key tips to keep your business safe.

Before the coronavirus pandemic hit, cybersecurity was a hot topic in our industry, with high-profile suppliers like alphabroder (asi/34063) and Bag Makers (asi/37940) suffering debilitating ransomware and malware attacks, respectively.  

But don’t be fooled by COVID’s dominance in the media since early 2020; cyberattacks are still happening, and you should be prepared.

"The best thing you can do for social media is turn on multi-factor authentication." – Jon Norris, Starline

Norris, who’s a Counselor Power 50 member and the 2019 Technology Executive of the Year, discusses what all businesses should be doing to protect themselves, the importance of multi-factor authentication and, of course, the vulnerabilities that social media presents and how you can remediate them.
