A multilayered, zero-trust security posture provides a better chance of fending off sophisticated supply chain attackers before it s too late.
2020 ended with shocking cybersecurity news: a massive supply chain attack involving SolarWinds, Microsoft, VMware, and others. The hackers went undetected for nearly a year, impacting many sensitive targets, from US federal departments to private sector companies, including security firms.

As Maricopa County and the Arizona Senate battle over who should audit the 2020 election results, The Arizona Republic looked into the companies that actually would do the work.

The county Board of Supervisors hired two firms to conduct its audit, saying they are the only firms that should be trusted because they are the only two accredited by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission to certify voting machines for use in elections in Arizona and across the country.

At first, I didn’t know much about cybersecurity, but I knew it offers multiple opportunities. Right now, I’m doing an internship, and I think cybersecurity as a career suits me perfectly. I believe my willingness to learn, perseverance, motivation from people around me, and EC-Council’s Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) helped me build a better resume for my future.
I made up my mind to go for CEH after looking at its syllabus and its sincerity to empower me to grow and learn about hacking and penetration testing, and the cybersecurity environment.
