 Top 10 ways you may be exposing your brand to Hackers.



1. Using easily guessable passwords or reusing the same password across multiple accounts.
2. Falling victim to phishing emails or messages that trick you into providing sensitive information or clicking on malicious links.
3. Connecting to unsecured or public Wi-Fi networks.
4. Failing to update your operating system, web browsers, or other software regularly.
5. Downloading files or software from untrustworthy sources, especially pirated or cracked versions.
6. Sharing personal information, such as your full name, date of birth, address, or other sensitive details, on social media platforms or publicly accessible websites.
7. Neglecting to enable security features like two-factor authentication (2FA) or using a weak security question.

Dear Business Starter, 10 COMMANDMENTS FOR BUSINESS STARTERS. 1. Thou Shall Not start a business without having a feasible business plan in place and some basic consultations no matter how small. 2. Except typically necessary, Thou Shall Not rent a shop/office, if it will bite into more than 50% of your startup capital. Negligence to this is a fast way to failure before you start. 3.

My Coding Journey 3

Hello guys, Now I'm here again to update you about my coding journey so far. Could you all believe I am now 41% done with my course on HTML and CSS - just like yesterday. I'm super glad at the frontend developer I'm gradually becoming. So far, I've learned about HTML lists, HTML tags, HTML images as well as HTML links. My project is centered on creating  a simple website about my favorite book ensuring to include some common HTML tags along the way. Kindly find the code below. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head>   <meta charset="utf-8">   <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">   <title>JS Bin</title> </head> <body> <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head>   <meta charset="utf-8">   <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">   <title>JS Bin</title> </head> <body> ...

If you ask the average Nigerian Entrepreneur starting out in business, "how do you intend to attract customers and drive sales in your business?" You can almost guess what the answer would be. "I'll just hire Marketers who would go out and bring in the sales". They'll mostly respond. Guess what? I can boldly say that the larger percentage of business failure we experience with Nigerian Entrepreneurs could be attributed to this assumption that: Hiring Marketers = Automatic Sales. But here's the thing. Sales in business, and business growth relies solely on 80% STRATEGY, and 20% MARKETING. The 80:20 principle comes alive again. Now, what's the better approach?  I'll paint 2 scenarios of how my firm works with our clients and I believe that will make obvious how best you should engage henceforth.  1st Scenario. Sometimes last year, there was this client that spoke to us. They wanted to introduce some new products into the market, and required us to ...
