Two texts. One is real. One is a phishing attempt. Would you share it? 📲

The difference isn’t how they look—it’s what they ask you to do. Your MFA code helps keep attackers out of your account. No legitimate person, including IT, will ever ask you to share it.

⚠️ Got a code you didn’t request? Someone may know your password. Report it to IT right away.

People who change roles accumulate access like frequent flyer miles.

That's how Chris Anderson put it in the latest blog highlighting insights from Cisco Duo's 2026 CISO Perspectives report, and it's a fun way to describe a real security risk.

When you leave a company, your access gets shut off. But when you switch teams or roles, old access often just… stays.

Security teams call it "privilege creep," and as Chris points out, movers tend to accumulate access quietly.

It's a bigger challenge than you might think: in Cisco Duo's survey of 680 IT and security leaders, 60% of CISOs said they lack confidence in how access is managed as people join, move, and leave.

This , help your IT team keep your access current:

🔄 Changed roles or teams? Let IT know.
📁 Wrapped up a project? Flag access you no longer need.
✅ Got an access review request? Respond to it.
‼️ Notice access that seems off? Say something.

Striking the right balance between user experience and security is a challenge for many organizations. Lean too far one way and you frustrate users; lean too far the other and you create risk.

Room & Board found that balance by giving design associates secure, flexible access from anywhere, without slowing down the customer experience they're known for.

Here's how they did it: https://cs.co/6181BGfl6W

Your MFA is expiring. Would you click it? 👀

Attackers frequently target MFA enrollment. If they trick you into registering their device, they get ongoing access to your account, even after you change your password.

Spot something suspicious? Report it, don't click it.

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and we're spending it on the thing that still gets people: the message that looks legitimate.

AI didn't invent phishing. It just made the previously obvious phish look real. The clues we all learned to spot - the typos, the odd formatting, the too-good offer - are mostly gone.

So the defense can't rely on catching them anymore. It has to verify what the eye can't.

Next week: a challenge to see how well you'd do against the new generation of fakes.

Access policies are only as smart as the data behind them.

With Custom Attributes — a core component of Duo Identity Lifecycle Management — you can move beyond one-size-fits-all rules and build context-aware access that reflects your actual environment.

Duo's Scott Grebe and Reetam Mandal walk through how it works, common deployment use cases, and a step-by-step demo inside the Duo Admin Panel.

"We chose Duo because we trust Duo more.” -M.G. Mitchum, Trident Technical College, CIO.

It’s not often you hear someone choose to pay for a product over the free default. But when Trident Technical College evaluated its MFA options, it became clear that the built-in solution was no match for Duo.

Trident Technical College chose trust and reliability over convenience, resulting in seamless, scalable security for a fully hybrid campus: https://cs.co/6186BGqSMY

Security functionality should be foundational, not an expensive add-on.

That's why we put broad-based security controls in our base edition instead of charging more for every additional use case.

Duo's security-first approach defends against advanced identity attacks - phishing, session hijacking, MFA fatigue - without adding friction for admins or users.
