What is cyber hygiene?
Cyber hygiene (or cybersecurity hygiene) is a cybersecurity practice that maintains the basic health and security of hardware and software. Cyber hygiene is a joint precautionary measure performed by an organization's security practitioner, computer system administrator and users to help protect from attacks. The basic practice aids in maintaining and protecting already properly functioning devices, ensuring they are protected from threats such as malware.
Cyber hygiene aims to keep any sensitive data organized and secure it from theft or attacks. The concept works similarly to personal hygiene, where an individual maintains their health by taking precautionary measures that would help ensure their health. If an individual neglects their health, they might catch a cold. If an organization neglects cyber hygiene, then it could lead to a virus and data breach.
In order to know what is on an organization's network and how it's associated with risk, an organization needs to develop a cyber resilience plan that can evaluate their cyber hygiene.

Career Guide: Ethical Hacker
Ethical hackers, or white hat hackers, act like the enemy when it comes to cybersecurity. Companies that want to see how strong their security is will contact a consulting firm and have an ethical hacker attempt to break into their system. This can involve everything from SQL injections, to DDoS attacks, to using social engineering to gain access. The hacker will then write up a detailed report of the system’s vulnerabilities and how the company can fix them.
Ethical hackers are typically certified, meaning they have to sit through an accredited course and pass an exam.

How Low-Code and No-Code Development Accelerates Digital Transformation
Low-code development tools, and their close cousin no code, put user-friendly features such as drag-and-drop interfaces and WYSIWYG editors into the hands of citizen engineers, allowing non-developers such as HR, marketers and operations teams to rapidly develop, deploy and maintain enterprise software applications.
The low-code and no-code approach holds promise to accelerate digital transformation by lowering technical barriers and enabling more teams to innovate and build sophisticated apps without requiring programming knowledge.
According to research by analyst firm Gartner, more than 50 percent of medium to large enterprises will have adopted a low-code application platform (LCAP) as one of their strategic application platforms by 2023, largely due to developer shortages and skill-set challenges.
