Welcome to Issue #005 of Cyber Pulse SA.
Each week, we translate cybersecurity news and real attack patterns into clear actions San Antonio businesses and households can apply immediately.
No hype. No vendor noise. Just practical insights that matter.
🔐 This Week’s Focus: Password Fatigue & Credential Theft
Reused passwords remain one of the easiest ways attackers gain access to business systems.
Across Texas, credential stuffing and account takeover attempts continue to rise. Attackers use leaked passwords from past breaches to test logins across email, payroll, cloud services, and internal systems.
Once one account is compromised, attackers often move laterally and escalate access.
🌎 Local & National Threat Snapshot
Common patterns we are seeing this week:
• Texas businesses reporting spikes in account takeovers tied to reused passwords
• Credential dumps from older breaches still actively circulating on the dark web
• Small and mid-sized businesses targeted due to lack of enforced MFA

📱 Device Security Tip of the Week
Use a password manager instead of reusing passwords.
Password managers generate unique, complex passwords for every account and store them securely. This prevents a single breach from exposing multiple systems and significantly reduces credential theft risk.

📌 Final Thought
Most cyber incidents don’t start with some advanced hacker in a hoodie.
They usually start with something simple, like a reused password.
Staying protected doesn’t mean adding complicated tools or extra work.
It’s about building small, consistent security habits that actually stick.
