Employee data is treasured by cybercriminals. Don't let your HR Department be a treasure trove of stolen data.
Imagine stealing the digital identities and credentials of hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of employees in one fell swoop to sell on the dark web or to mine for ammunition in a mass phishing attack. That’s the lure of human resources data for hackers.
Corporate HR administrators, third-party HR service providers, payroll processors, and temp employment agencies all manage the complete employee on- to off-boarding lifecycle and collect highly sensitive personal data. Beyond storing resumes, performance reviews, and counting vacation days there are addresses, social security numbers, insurance benefits, ID badge data, and banking/direct deposit details for every member of the organization. Protecting this information is the responsibility of the HR department and is of equal if not greater importance as monitoring employee attendance and cutting payroll checks.
A breach in HR data not only puts your entire employee population at risk of financial fraud and identity theft, but also exposes your organization to compliance penalties and monetary fines. HR departments must secure sensitive employee data with the same tenacity IT departments use to guard their server and data environments. The place to start is with password management, as most cyberattacks can be traced to the use of a weak or compromised password or poor credential management.
