TikTok is the latest buzzword—you can’t go a day without hearing something in the news about the app’s users, content produced on TikTok, or the numerous questions of privacy and security. And it’s no secret that TikTok’s popularity has woven the app into everyday life personally, politically, and professionally. However, this may not be such a good thing.

‍In 2022, we asked our team for their cybersecurity predictions for the year. The theme was pretty much, “Everything is bad. Everyone’s a target.” As it turns out, we are pretty good at seeing the future—each of our predictions from last year came true in some way. So we're doing it again for 2023!

Your cybersecurity strategy should begin with DNS filtering, but it definitely shouldn’t end there. In fact, your strategy needs to include more than just the security platforms and safeguards your own organization uses— it needs to include your vendors as well.

In the spirit of DNSFilter’s 7th birthday, and the close of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we did something brave. We asked our Security team for their very best cybersecurity tips—then watched as the slack channel flooded with messages. They offered up a ton of really great advice, but we went ahead and narrowed it down to a reasonable list, just for you.
