Small and medium sized businesses are the lifeblood of any economy. And as these organizations are on the forefront of innovation, providing many critical products and services that are part of the supply chain and ecosystem of larger organizations, they can often become a prime target for cyberattacks. A security breach can be catastrophic for an SMB, with most never recovering from the ensuing damage. Therefore, ensuring strong security for SMBs is an urgent need across industries to protect against ever evolving cyberthreats. However, these organizations face different business and IT challenges than their larger enterprise counterparts, often with a much more constrained set of IT resources, budget and staff. A strong authentication solution that provides strong phishing defense while making it simple and fast for SMBs to adopt is critical to ensuring a stronger security posture and ensuring accelerated and uninterrupted productivity.

In this session, we will discuss:

• The evolving market and cyber threat landscape
• The key strong authentication and MFA approaches available and related tradeoffs
• How modern phishing defeats basic MFA
• And how the YubiKey offers phishing-resistant MFA to stop account takeovers, reduce costs, and drive employee productivity
