The biggest problem, pretty much all of us have, has to do with our passwords, what we're doing with them, how often we're changing them, how we are storing them. It is being used for quite a few things out there right now. We see a real emphasis on a term you might not have heard before it's cloud jacking.

This is where someone gained access to your cloud services and then does nefarious things with them. What do you expect them to do now? What does this all mean? If you are using something, like maybe you're using salesforce.com, maybe you have online banking with your bank.

Most people do. There are so many cloud services that we use nowadays. And cloud jacking is where someone gained access to that online account. You might ask, how do they do that? How do they gain access to it? The simplest and most common way of doing it is something called password stuffing. Now, I know I'm throwing many terms out there for everybody, but basically, cloud jacking means that cloud service is being used without your permission, your cloud service.
