My 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.
Ya that just sounds like good practice for internal services.
@[email protected] Maybe see if you can use a FIDO2 device like yubikey for 2fa
I 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.
Every layer of security helps.
Yeah, maybe they should encrypt it a third time. You never know.
