Cyberattacks<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Instead of overwhelming checklists, focus on the steps that make the biggest difference.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Make Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Standard<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Passwords alone are no longer enough.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If a password is compromised, MFA
