Protecting a company’s most valuable assets and sensitive data from cyber threats is mission critical, no matter how big your business or bank account is. But consider this fact: not all cyberattacks are carried out by external actors. In fact, some of the most damaging and costly attacks can occur from the inside.
That means protection from the inside is just as important as protection from the outside. Veriato offers security services to protect a company’s assets from internal threats.

But paying the household employees and keeping track of payroll receipts, tax forms, insurance coverage and more can be a cumbersome and confusing process. That’s where GTM Payroll Services steps in to help.

If you’re tired of traditional lenders, the internet is chock full of options for any type of loan you can imagine. But whether you want to lower your student loan payments, buy a house or get a loan to fix up your home, how do you decide where to get the funds?

The internet is a minefield when it comes to security and identity verification. And with recent cybersecurity breaches, the stakes have never been higher. Making one false move can expose critical personal information and cost your company and your wallet a huge amount of money.
So here’s the key question: How do you verify a person’s identity when all you’re looking at is a computer screen? How can you make sure what you’re seeing in the digital world matches real life? That’s where identity screening companies like Jumio come in.

And while 65 percent are confident that their tax returns are error-free, 29 percent still worry the IRS will audit them.

The millions of new jobs they create each year are extremely important to our nation’s economy, yet traditional lending institutions often fail them when an unexpected opportunity knocks or cash is tight.
Most people have probably thought about ditching their jobs and spending months traveling around the world. It’s also likely that the vast majority of these people don’t follow through with those plans. Instead, they put their dreams on hold to live a more conventional life, filled with offices, homes and bills. But if you are seeking a more adventurous lifestyle, do not despair.
There is a way you can hit the road, make money and live the dream, achieving a lifestyle that people will envy for decades to come. That’s what Jeremy Jones is doing. He and his wife Angie are the authors of the blog, Living the Dream.
As Jones told RewardExpert, “Don’t keep thinking about it, commit to doing it!”

That’s a jump of approximately 80 percent when compared to the previous year.
Spring break is here, which means families from all across the U.S. will be vacationing to warmer locations via car, plane or even train.
Planning a vacation or cross-country trip is no easy feat, especially when you’re organizing an itinerary for the entire family. The process can be tiresome and it can be hard to come to an agreement on what events everyone should participate in. To ease the burden, notably for parents, an app called Cozi helps families stay organized so everyone is on the same page before taking off for vacation.
It can be tough for busy parents to stay on top of their finances and just as tough for them to find time to teach their kids about money. However, there is one Arizona-based company that is offering a way to do both. With BusyKid, chores, allowances and finances all come together into one easy solution.
Imagine a world where one person or one organization could really make a difference. Imagine if their efforts to end poverty and war had a global impact. You don’t have to imagine that anymore. Meet the people at Abt Associates.

He earned a degree in aeronautics at the age of 22, which was soon followed by a masters in writing. After that, he completed a PhD in political science from MIT in 1965. He created Abt Associates the same year with one purpose: to create a world free of war and poverty.
