Authlogics has responded to advice from the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) for organisations to use better password management, in order to protect themselves against organised COVID-19 cyber-attacks.

The company is providing its Password Breach Status and Active Directory Audit Report free-of-charge, enabling organisations to check in minutes against the Authlogics Password Breach Database (a live report of more than 2 billion records), to determine if and to what extent they have been compromised and exposed. 

The Authlogics Reports include:

• The total number of breached credentials found in Authlogics Password Breach Database.
• The email addresses of the most breached accounts in the organisation.
• A per-user risk rating, including if they have used their network password for public logon.
• Next steps on how to secure the organisation’s infrastructure, comply with new regulations and follow best practice.
