minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish-13•edit-22 months agoMy workplace requires VPN for Web sites that are authenticated, require 2FA and are encrypted. It’s infuriatingly stupid. I feel like someone higher up got sold a useless contract by a good VPN salesperson.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish13•2 months agoI applaud your IT leadership/CIO for being willing to do this. Most companies are far too passive and think “aIt won’t happen to us”. I’ve seen companies scammed of $1mil in a single transaction because they sent credentials in email, to a scammer. Had they used a credential management system this wouldn’t have happened.
