Identity Theft

Prevent Online Identity Theft with Akku

Online identity theft, simply put, is impersonation on an online platform. If someone else pretends to be you — either by stealing your credentials and logging into your account or by creating a fake account that others believe is yours – then your identity has been stolen.

There are a number of ways – data breaches, phishing, mishandled passwords, and more – through which personal data collected by an organization can be compromised, giving rise to the risk of identity theft. There are also a number of ways in which Akku, the Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution by CloudNow, can help you prevent it.

With Akku, you can:

    • Set up a strong password policy across your cloud-based and on-premise applications. This will make sure that users do not settle for weak passwords which can be easily hacked.
    • Employ multi-factor authentication (MFA) to enhance the security of your applications, especially those that carry sensitive data.
    • Keep DNS filters active and effectively block out malicious websites that your employees may try to access, even when they are outside the office network.
    • Block access to employees’ personal emails at work. In this way, phishing emails will remain out of the organizational network and internal (malicious) data breaches can also be prevented.
    • Set up IP- and device-based restrictions so that access to your applications is denied when users try to log in from unsafe locations or unrecognized devices.
    • Set up time-based and location-based restrictions to prevent sign in attempts from new locations or countries that are not in keeping with the usual behavior of the user in question.
  • Educate your users by sending out bulk announcements that cannot be missed, and providing them with training material that will teach them to stay safe.
