2.5 Billion Email Users Urged To Change Password — Act Now

Chnage your passwrod now as email attacks continue. What if I were to tell you that hackers are coming for your email account password? You probably wouldn't be that surprised; it's a valuable criminal commodity, after all. But what if a well-respected threat response unit told you that those attacks targeting user credentials and authentication mechanisms now accounted for nearly 60% of identity-based attacks in 2025? Or that email account compromise cases have spiked by more than 60% year-on-year? Are you listening now? Good, because major email platfiorms Gmail and Outlook, who between them account for more than 2.5 billion active users, want you to change your password, and do so now. Here's what you need to know and do. Change Your Email Account Password Now As Attacks Surge A July 7 identity threat report from the eSentire Threat Response Unit has confirmed what most of us in the broader cybersecurity industry, as well as most of you, I suspect, already knew: email accounts are under attack. And how. 'TRU's threat data presents a stark reality,' the report's introduction said, 'identity-driven threats have increased by 156% between 2023 and 2025, now representing 59% of all confirmed threat cases during Q1 2025.' This surge is being driven by Cybercrime-as-a-Service, and more precisely Phishing-as-a-Service, offerings that attackers can hire for as little as $200 per month. No wonder, then, that email compromise has increased by 60%, and more than 40% of all attacks this year so far have involved account takeover or compromise, according to eSentire's analysis. Your password is no longer good enough, dear reader, to protect you and your email account from the onslaught of increasingly sophisticated and devastating hack attacks. Which is why both Google and Microsoft have been urging all users to adopt the far more secure passkey alternative for some months now. Passkeys are effortless to create and use, automatically generated with no room for human error and nothing to remember. They are also strong by default, phishing and social-engineering resistant, and totally private. A passkey private key never leaves your device. The question here shouldn't be why you need to replace your email passwords with passkeys, but why haven't you already done so? So, what are you waiting for?

Redefining cybersecurity: Data, resilience and the future of MDR

In this Cyber Champions article we talk to JP Haynes, CEO of eSentire, a company that has grown from an early managed service provider into a global leader in Managed Detection and Response (MDR). Haynes takes us inside the world of 24/7 cyber defense, the talent war in cybersecurity and why raw data—not hype—drives security success. Founded in 2001, eSentire's name has a unique origin story. 'We needed a domain that was available,' Haynes recalls. The word 'sentir' comes from Italian, meaning 'to sense' or 'to feel'—a fitting name for a company built on the idea of detecting and neutralizing threats before they escalate. Adding the 'e' was a nod to the early-2000s trend of dot-com branding. What started as a cybersecurity service for hedge funds, private equity firms and broker-dealers—the financial world's so-called 'buy side'—quickly expanded. 'Finance is often the tip of the spear in cybersecurity,' Haynes explains. 'That's where the money is, so that's where attackers go first.' But as threats grew, so did eSentire. Today, the company operates in over 80 countries, securing businesses across industries like health care, manufacturing and government. Their evolution mirrors the changing threat landscape—where no sector is immune from cyberattacks. For many organizations, cybersecurity is a reactive scramble—responding to threats only after they make headlines. eSentire's MDR approach flips that script, providing 24/7 monitoring, detection and response so clients never reach crisis mode. 'In cybersecurity, everything we see is actually a breach that hasn't fully completed its objectives yet,' Haynes says. Whether it's malware trying to gain persistence, an attacker probing a network or a phishing attempt in progress, the eSentire team is trained to intervene before the damage is done. That's what sets MDR apart: it's not just about alerts—it's about action. While many security providers notify clients of threats, eSentire actively disrupts attacks in real-time. It's the difference between knowing there's an intruder in your house and having a security team on-site to stop them before they do harm. Cybersecurity is an industry obsessed with trends. AI, machine learning and now, 'Agentic AI' are hyped as the next frontier. But Haynes sees things differently. 'There's always a new buzzword,' he says. 'But in reality, most organizations aren't even integrating the security tools they already have.' In today's fragmented security market, a typical Fortune 2000 company manages over 50 different cybersecurity technologies, often from different vendors. 'If they're all best-in-breed, that's 50 different dashboards, 50 different logs to analyze and 50 different vendors to manage.' This is driving a move toward vendor consolidation—where companies like Microsoft, CrowdStrike and Palo Alto Networks are building comprehensive cybersecurity platforms. But Haynes believes most companies will still need a hybrid approach—leveraging best-in-class solutions while ensuring they work together effectively. 'The reality is, more security tools don't always mean better security,' he says. 'What matters is how well they work together.' Hiring cybersecurity talent is harder than ever. The industry faces a massive talent shortage and finding analysts with the right mix of skills is a constant challenge. So, what does it take to be an elite cyber analyst? According to Haynes, they need to be: One part air traffic controller: Able to process huge amounts of incoming data and make split-second decisions. One part network engineer: Understanding how systems connect and where vulnerabilities lie. One part Fortnite player: Able to think like an attacker, anticipate movements and react quickly under pressure. To solve the hiring challenge, eSentire built its own training program to upskill analysts—a program so effective it's now 'the envy of competitors and even government agencies.' Unlike analysts at in-house security teams, eSentire's analysts get exposure to threats across multiple industries and geographies. 'If you work in security at one company, you see a narrow slice of threats. We see it all. That makes our team faster, smarter, and better prepared.' If there's one thing Haynes is passionate about, it's data-driven security. His philosophy is simple: 'The more data, the better the security outcome.' More data means: Better detection: Spotting anomalies faster. Better response: Knowing exactly what's happening in real-time. Better adaptation: Understanding how attackers evolve and adjusting defenses accordingly. In cybersecurity, intuition and gut feelings don't cut it. Decisions need to be based on raw data, not assumptions. That's why eSentire focuses on collecting, analyzing and acting on massive amounts of security data—because in this industry, knowledge is the best defense. Despite the best defenses, some attacks will succeed. That's why true cybersecurity isn't just about prevention—it's about resilience. Haynes breaks resilience down into three pillars: Anticipate: Know your security posture, vulnerabilities and attack surface before an attack happens. Withstand: Detect and neutralize threats before they cause damage. Recover: If an attack gets through, suppress the threat instantly and restore business operations fast. The goal? Make cyberattacks a temporary inconvenience—not a business-ending disaster. And Haynes knows better than anyone: 'Everybody's hackable. Absolute security is absolutely impossible.' But resilience is possible, and that's what eSentire is built for. At its core, cybersecurity isn't about eliminating risk—that's impossible. It's about managing risk, adapting to threats and staying resilient. Haynes' approach is refreshingly pragmatic. Instead of chasing hype, eSentire focuses on what really matters: data, vigilance and action. For businesses looking to improve their cybersecurity, his advice is clear: 'Security isn't a one-time project. It's an ongoing journey. The key is to start—and never stop improving.'
