With continually changing technologies, companies can look for emerging trends that will impact their business function in a positive manner. </p>\n<p>Here are five major data security trends to look forward to in 2021.</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>AI integration</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>AI has already been introduced in various digital marketing methods, but this versatile technology can easily be integrated to mitigate digital attacks and security breaches. This is the perfect solution to your questions about how to protect consumer data without too many expenses.</p>\n<p>The automation of the entire security process would mean users get an instant alert when their data is wrongfully used or during any other suspicious activity. The additional advantage of AI is that it does not require new protocols to be installed whenever new hacking methods emerge.</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mobile Security</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>The pandemic has taught everyone how important and simple mobile banking is, making out handheld devices and tablets vulnerable. Security for these devices can easily be compromised by clicking the wrong link sent to an email address. Companies are now specifically focusing on increasing the security of handheld devices to ensure consumer data protection.</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Zero Trust Model</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>How should an organization protect the privacy and security of their consumer information? It is entirely possible that users are misusing their account verification. It's in these cases that the <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/resource/zero-trust-security/\">Zero Trust Model</a> works. </p>\n<p>The Zero Trust Model believes that no user can be trusted, and verification is no longer an option. It supports the theory that all users need to be authenticated, authorized, and verified at regular intervals to ensure they can be trusted with the data in any business hierarchy.</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Automation</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Data in any business or organization grows rapidly once the business has found traction. Instead of depending upon manual work to ensure the data is up-to-date, companies are now relying on automation in the form of software and programs. These are specifically created to avoid human errors and increase account security<strong>.</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>CSaaSP</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Cyber Security as a Service Providers (CSaaSP) are companies that specialize in providing robust advanced protection programs and software. These include a security operations center (SOC) where all security is monitored and analyzed, and any data breach or thread is addressed. These are cost-effective, scalable options for companies who don't have the finances to hire in-house experts.</p>\n<h2 id=\"the-importance-of-two-factormulti-factor-authentication\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#the-importance-of-two-factormulti-factor-authentication\" aria-label=\"the importance of two factormulti factor authentication permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>The Importance of Two-Factor/Multi-Factor Authentication</h2>\n<p>Cybersecurity experts believe that an added step in the log-in process is likely to increase the security of the account and data. Two-factor and multi-factor authentication processes have been integrated into many systems. </p>\n<p>When you ask the question 'how do companies protect consumer data, the most common answer is <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/blog/engineering/why-mfa-important/\">multi-factor authentication</a>. Google provides its users two-factor authentication services during the log-in process for all Google accounts, which increases the overall security of the data.</p>\n<p>Integrating a two-factor authentication process adds an extra layer of security for you, the user. Hackers who aim to log in to accounts will have to spend extra time to sign in to your account, during which AIs can easily detect the threat and take appropriate measures. </p>\n<p>Multi-factor authentication can easily be done by adding a verification code, personal security question, or biometrics. These can easily be integrated into any business or company to increase overall account security. This reduces the likelihood of fraud and identity theft.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/resource/ebook/buyers-guide-to-multi-factor-authentication/\"><span\n      class=\"gatsby-resp-image-wrapper\"\n      style=\"position: relative; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 768px; \"\n    >\n      <span\n    class=\"gatsby-resp-image-background-image\"\n    style=\"padding-bottom: 30.307692307692307%; position: relative; bottom: 0; left: 0; background-image: url('data:image/png;base64,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'); background-size: cover; display: block;\"\n  ></span>\n  <img\n        class=\"gatsby-resp-image-image\"\n        alt=\"mfa\"\n        title=\"mfa\"\n        src=\"/static/dce0b5caab393383c0c906c5653faa64/e5715/mfa.png\"\n        srcset=\"/static/dce0b5caab393383c0c906c5653faa64/a6d36/mfa.png 650w,\n/static/dce0b5caab393383c0c906c5653faa64/e5715/mfa.png 768w,\n/static/dce0b5caab393383c0c906c5653faa64/63ff0/mfa.png 2887w\"\n        sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"\n        style=\"width:100%;height:100%;margin:0;vertical-align:middle;position:absolute;top:0;left:0;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n      />\n    </span></a></p>\n<p>However, integration of the two-factor or multi-factor authentication process can take time, especially because consumers upgrade their account security at their own pace.

Companies can ensure that the data is encrypted as the user goes through the payment process. This enables the user to complete the transaction without worrying about account security. Data encryption isn't a fool-proof step, especially because if the security keys are found, all data can be exposed. However, data encryption is the first step in upgrading any security protocol. </p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Optimize backup and recovery</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Most businesses use either external backups or cloud services to back up all data about the business organization. However, the backup process and the cloud service can be vulnerable. This is especially true if a company focuses on enhancing their organization's servers and user account security and pays little attention to their data backup facility. This is an easy point of access to any skilled hacker. Optimizing data backup facilities and recovery protocols to detect and avoid any data threats is important.</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Promote compliance and transparency</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>78% of people lack confidence in their company's security measures. This astonishing number has given rise to the <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/gdpr-and-privacy/\">General Data Protection Regulation</a>. GDPR is an EU standard that puts all data security in the hands of the consumers. </p>\n<p>GDPR mandates businesses asking their users to regularly check their security settings and personal information (like phone numbers) and closing down accounts that they no longer use or require. Businesses can comply with these standards to increase the data security of their organization.  </p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Consider cyber insurance</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>On average, only <a href=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/chuckbrooks/2021/03/02/alarming-cybersecurity-stats-------what-you-need-to-know-for-2021/?sh=1758eae058d3\">5%</a> of any company's folders are protected from outside threats and suspicious activity. The cost of this vulnerability is the reason why several businesses now invest in cyber insurance. A policy for cyber threats usually includes forensic analysis of the data breach as well as monetary compensation for crisis management, legal and regulatory fines, and business losses. </p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Install a Password Manager</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Businesses that require complicated passwords usually result in users who can't remember these. This, in turn, means that users either abandon their account and create a new one or use ill-advised methods to store their passwords. Using a password manager is similar to writing down all passwords in one place. However, this AI-powered software can improve account security easily by detecting and avoiding all digital threats. </p>\n<p>These are the most basic and most well-known methods of upgrading a business's cybersecurity. However, businesses can easily partner with cybersecurity platforms to upgrade their servers. These usually include smart and easy-to-integrate solutions.</p>\n<h2 id=\"how-can-loginradius-sso-solution-help-businesses-ensure-consumer-data-security\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#how-can-loginradius-sso-solution-help-businesses-ensure-consumer-data-security\" aria-label=\"how can loginradius sso solution help businesses ensure consumer data security permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>How Can LoginRadius' SSO Solution Help Businesses Ensure Consumer Data Security</h2>\n<p>LoginRadius' Single sign-on solution provides businesses with the option to streamline their consumer's security.

It helps the digital marketing team to streamline the lead nurturing process by gathering increasingly specific client data. </p>\n<p>The best thing about progressive profiling is that the same question won't repeat twice. For example, if the lead has already provided their email address, name, and phone number, they won't be asked for it again. Instead, when the lead arrives on the landing page for the second time, they will be asked different questions like their company name, home address, and much more.</p>\n<p>In this way, digital marketing teams obtain several data points about a lead without annoying or overwhelming them with long forms in the first interaction itself. </p>\n<h2 id=\"how-does-progressive-profiling-work\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#how-does-progressive-profiling-work\" aria-label=\"how does progressive profiling work permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>How Does Progressive Profiling Work</h2>\n<p>Progressive profiling is implemented using marketing automation tools that offer smart form fields. This smart form is linked with the consumer's cookie that helps provide information about their previous behavior. </p>\n<p>Each consumer who lands on the website landing page is assigned a cookie. The cookie tracks all the consumer's activity on the landing page and monitors the questions they have already answered. </p>\n<p>For example, if the consumer has already provided their name, an unanswered question will replace this field, say residential address, the next time they visit the landing page. </p>\n<p>Different marketing automation tools use varying ways of setting up progressive profiling. But all of them have the following three things in common:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Defining a list of questions that helps with lead generation. </li>\n<li>Adding them strategically to the progressive profiling queue</li>\n<li>Establishing a particular order in which those questions should appear on the consumer's screen.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The following example will explain this better. A company's marketing team prepares a list of questions they want to ask, such as:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Email address</li>\n<li>First name</li>\n<li>Last name</li>\n<li>Company name</li>\n<li>Permanent address</li>\n<li>Job position</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Then they add these questions to the marketing automation tool. After that, they decide what questions will be asked on the consumer's first visit and what can be left for the second one. Consequently, the marketing automation tool attaches cookies to each site visitor, ensuring a coherent flow of questions. </p>\n<h2 id=\"what-are-the-benefits-of-progressive-profiling\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#what-are-the-benefits-of-progressive-profiling\" aria-label=\"what are the benefits of progressive profiling permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>What Are the Benefits of Progressive Profiling</h2>\n<p>The three most significant benefits of progressive profiling are:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shorter forms that the visitor can fill within a few seconds.</li>\n<li>Smart forms ask only unanswered questions that save time and effort otherwise spent on creating multiple forms.</li>\n<li>Smart forms collect critical consumer information that reveals hidden insights.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>There are other advantages of progressive profiling as well. The following points explain them in detail:</p>\n<p><strong>1. Qualifying leads</strong></p>\n<p>Progressive profiling allows marketers to collect critical information about their clientele and build unique consumer personas. It helps determine where a particular consumer is in the buying journey and decide the best course of action to move them towards the final purchasing stage.</p>\n<p><strong>2. Fine-tune buyer personas</strong></p>\n<p>Your marketing team will be able to craft effective marketing strategies that connect with the consumer. They will <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/blog/growth/b2b-lead-generation-for-2021/\">streamline the lead nurturing process</a> based on the actual data points such as company size, job role, industry, location, etc., instead of making educated guesses. </p>\n<p><strong>3. Accelerates the buying journey</strong></p>\n<p>Lead profiling provides hidden insights about consumers that help to personalize marketing efforts and build trust. You will be able to craft messages that motivate consumers to move ahead in the sales funnel. </p>\n<p><strong>4. Increase conversion rate</strong></p>\n<p>By developing unique consumer personas, you will significantly increase your chance of finalizing the deal. But thorough signup forms can scare away the consumer. Also,  your conversion rate will substantially increase with a decrease in the number of fields in the smart form.</p>\n<p><strong>5. Optimize sales time</strong></p>\n<p>The marketing team can significantly decrease sales time by asking more relevant questions to their consumers as they move forward in their buying journey. Progressive profiling allows sending qualified leads to the sales team that ultimately impacts the company's bottom line. </p>\n<h2 id=\"create-consumer-profiles-using-the-loginradius-ciam-platform\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#create-consumer-profiles-using-the-loginradius-ciam-platform\" aria-label=\"create consumer profiles using the loginradius ciam platform permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>Create Consumer Profiles Using The LoginRadius' CIAM platform</h2>\n<p>LoginRadius' CIAM platform provides an automated way of collecting consumer-specific data gradually, without annoying or overwhelming them.

From ransomware to phishing attacks, we have heard them all. </p>\n<p>But the one hacking tactic that is generating a lot of attention is password spraying, an attack in which hackers literally \"spray\" a number of passwords at many usernames to gain access to accounts. </p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https://enterprise.verizon.com/resources/reports/dbir/\">2020 Data Breach Investigations Report</a> revealed that over 80 percent of hacking-related data breaches involve stolen or lost credentials and employ brute force attacks, which makes password spraying a legitimate security concern. </p>\n<p>While such attacks cannot be prevented, they can be detected and even stopped mid-attack. In this article, we detail what is password spraying, how to not be vulnerable to password spraying, and what to do if you suspect that your organization has been affected by a password spraying attack. </p>\n<p>We've also listed how LoginRadius can help mitigate losses from password spraying using our robust CIAM platform.</p>\n<h2 id=\"what-is-password-spraying\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#what-is-password-spraying\" aria-label=\"what is password spraying permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>What is Password Spraying?</h2>\n<p>Password spraying is identified as a high-volume attack tactic in which hackers test multiple user accounts using many common passwords to gain access. Trying a single password against several user accounts before attempting a different password on the same account allows hackers to circumvent the usual account lockout protocols, enabling them to keep trying more and more passwords.</p>\n<p>Hackers can go after specific users and cycles using as many passwords as possible from either a dictionary or an edited list of common passwords. Password spraying is not a targeted attack, it is just one malicious actor acquiring a list of email accounts or gaining access to an active directory and attempting to sign in to all the accounts using a list of the most likely, popular, or common passwords until they get a hit.</p>\n<p>The key takeaway from password spraying is that user accounts with old or common passwords form the weak link hackers can exploit to gain access to the network. Unfortunately, password spraying attacks are frequently successful because so many account users fail to follow the best password protection practices or choose convenience over security. </p>\n<p>Here’s a password spraying example: Let's say an attacker wants to gain access to a company's email system. They have a list of email addresses for employees at the company but don't know their passwords. Instead of attempting to guess each employee's individual password, the attacker uses a common password (such as \"password123\") and tries it on each email account in the list. Then the attacker uses an automated tool to repeatedly enter the common password for each email address until they find one that works. This way, they can gain access to multiple email accounts with minimal effort.

Password security</strong>: The platform is equipped with features like setting password validation (minimum/maximum length, at least one special character, alphanumeric, etc.), enforcing password lifetime, password history, and password visibility.</p>\n<p><strong>2. Security against brute force attack</strong>: A <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/blog/identity/2021/02/brute-force-lockout/\">Brute Force Attack</a> is a common practice of hackers trying various passwords until they find the right password. When it happens, you have the option to suspend your consumer's account for a set period of time, prompt the captcha option, ask security questions, or block the account entirely.</p>\n<p><strong>3. Risk-based authentication (RBA)</strong>: RBA is an authentication system in which a new layer of protection is activated if there is a minor change in consumer conduct, such as a changed IP address, suspected search history, or some other act that seems suspicious and dangerous. LoginRadius is the ideal RBA solution for enterprises of all sizes offering authentication protocols like biometrics, push notifications, OTP, and tokens.</p>\n<p><strong>4. Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)</strong>: MFA requires consumers to pass through multiple layers of authentication during login. So, even if an attacker successfully guesses a user's password, they would still need access to the second factor of authentication, such as a security token or biometric verification, to gain access to the user's account. This makes it much more difficult for an attacker to gain unauthorized access, even if they have obtained a valid password through password spraying. </p>\n<h2 id=\"in-conclusion\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#in-conclusion\" aria-label=\"in conclusion permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>In Conclusion</h2>\n<p>As technology advances, so must we.

Always Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)</span></code></pre>\n<p>SSL is the first line of defense for your web application or website that helps prevent data breaches, phishing scams, and other similar threats.</p>\n<p>Talking about OAuth security, the ones that aren’t using SSL are undoubtedly surrendering the confidential information of their users to attackers.</p>\n<p>All it takes is a couple of minutes for cybercriminals to sneak into user data by bypassing the basic security if the resource owner doesn’t use SSL.</p>\n<pre class=\"grvsc-container dark-default-dark\" data-language=\"\" data-index=\"1\"><code class=\"grvsc-code\"><span class=\"grvsc-line\">2.       Encrypting Clients’ Secrets</span></code></pre>\n<p>One of the biggest mistakes that organizations repeat is storing clients’ crucial data in plaintext instead of encrypted files.</p>\n<p>Businesses must understand that if authentication relies entirely on passwords, the databases must contain encrypted files so that attackers can’t gain access to confidential user and business details.</p>\n<p>Using a CIAM solution offering <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/blog/engineering/lets-encrypt-with-ssl-certificates/\">data encryption and SSL</a> is perhaps the best option for the highest security while users login to a business website or web application.</p>\n<pre class=\"grvsc-container dark-default-dark\" data-language=\"\" data-index=\"2\"><code class=\"grvsc-code\"><span class=\"grvsc-line\">3.       Using Refresh Tokens</span></code></pre>\n<p>Access tokens for login must be short-lived, and organizations must emphasize the use of refresh tokens for maximum security.</p>\n<p>Refresh tokens play a crucial role in improving the overall safety in cyberspace. They can automatically end a session if a user on the website is idle for some time and offer access again without entering the credentials (for a predefined time).</p>\n<p>Thus, the user would be forced to log in again but need not enter the credentials, which eventually decreases the risk of a security breach since the previous session already expired.</p>\n<pre class=\"grvsc-container dark-default-dark\" data-language=\"\" data-index=\"3\"><code class=\"grvsc-code\"><span class=\"grvsc-line\">4.       Choose Short Lifetime for Token Access</span></code></pre>\n<p>The lifetime for both access tokens and refresh tokens should be short to ensure the tokens aren’t active for a long time, which again may lead to a security threat.</p>\n<p>For critical applications dealing with finances or other crucial information about consumers, the access token lifetime should be kept short and not exceed 60 seconds.</p>\n<pre class=\"grvsc-container dark-default-dark\" data-language=\"\" data-index=\"4\"><code class=\"grvsc-code\"><span class=\"grvsc-line\">5.

These leads provide their contact information such as name, email address, phone number, etc., through various means which can be used to further conversation and convert it to sales.</p>\n<p>In the B2B space, the leads are decision-makers from other organizations and businesses that may need your company's product or service to further their own growth. All that is left to convert these qualified leads into consumers is an effective sales pitch.</p>\n<p>The usual process of lead generation involves nurturing leads via marketing automation. Once B2B marketers identify a lead as a potential prospect for a company's products, it can be moved into the sales pipeline for lead conversion.</p>\n<p>Generating B2B leads is essential and forms the backbone of all good B2B marketing strategies. Furthermore, establishing a strong sales pipeline will ensure that companies maintain a steady growth rate.</p>\n<p>It is important to remember that potential leads are only just one step away from becoming your clients. All you need is to gain their attention, provide value for your offerings and prove that your products and services will be valuable additions to their services.</p>\n<h2 id=\"difference-between-b2c-and-b2b-lead-generation\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#difference-between-b2c-and-b2b-lead-generation\" aria-label=\"difference between b2c and b2b lead generation permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>Difference Between B2C and B2B Lead Generation</h2>\n<p>Whether it is B2C or B2B lead generation, anyone interested in what you have to offer becomes part of the target audience.

In B2B, the credibility of a brand and the teams behind it play a crucial role, which is why online sources alone cannot be entirely relied upon. Let’s now look at some of the most common and effective channels for B2B lead generation.</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Email marketing: One of the most popular and common forms of marketing and lead generation is email marketing. Once you obtain an email list, create innovative copy and design to attract potential consumers and keep at it so that potential leads also get to know you better.</li>\n<li>Live events: Once a very popular method to attract people's attention, live events currently may not be viable. But virtual events are proving themselves to be equally popular as they allow people to attend events from the comfort of their homes. Offer unique content to pull viewers in.</li>\n<li>Content marketing: <strong><a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/blog/growth/how-to-drive-in-the-highest-quality-leads-in-2021-with-content-and-seo/\">Content strategy</a></strong> is one of the best and most relevant strategies against the background of the Covid 19 pandemic. Case studies, whitepapers, and a blog post with engaging content are sure to score with your target audience.</li>\n<li>SEO: B2B companies are better served in investing in SEO to divert traffic from search engines.</li>\n<li>PPC: Pay-per-click advertising with catchy content and SEO with keywords is proving to be a worthy investment for lead generation.</li>\n<li>Social media: It can be safely said that social media is where everything’s at these days. Several platforms can be potential lead generators with the right kind of strategic tactics.</li>\n<li>Print media: Don’t knock it before at least trying it! There is still a segment of potential leads that get their information from newspapers and magazines and other print media forms. Based on your target audience, investing in print for leads might work, depending on your product or service.</li>\n</ol>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/resource/guide-to-modern-customer-identity/\"><span\n      class=\"gatsby-resp-image-wrapper\"\n      style=\"position: relative; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 768px; \"\n    >\n      <span\n    class=\"gatsby-resp-image-background-image\"\n    style=\"padding-bottom: 30.307692307692307%; position: relative; bottom: 0; left: 0; background-image: url('data:image/png;base64,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'); background-size: cover; display: block;\"\n  ></span>\n  <img\n        class=\"gatsby-resp-image-image\"\n        alt=\"Guide-to-Modern-Customer-Identity\"\n        title=\"Guide-to-Modern-Customer-Identity\"\n        src=\"/static/04bf5e11f74fd31f8819d64573a1e02c/e5715/Guide-to-Modern-Customer-Identity.png\"\n        srcset=\"/static/04bf5e11f74fd31f8819d64573a1e02c/a6d36/Guide-to-Modern-Customer-Identity.png 650w,\n/static/04bf5e11f74fd31f8819d64573a1e02c/e5715/Guide-to-Modern-Customer-Identity.png 768w,\n/static/04bf5e11f74fd31f8819d64573a1e02c/63ff0/Guide-to-Modern-Customer-Identity.png 2887w\"\n        sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\"\n        style=\"width:100%;height:100%;margin:0;vertical-align:middle;position:absolute;top:0;left:0;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n      />\n    </span></a></p>\n<h2 id=\"12-b2b-lead-generation-strategies-for-2021\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#12-b2b-lead-generation-strategies-for-2021\" aria-label=\"12 b2b lead generation strategies for 2021 permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>12 B2B Lead Generation Strategies for 2021</h2>\n<h3 id=\"1-content-marketing-strategies\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#1-content-marketing-strategies\" aria-label=\"1 content marketing strategies permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>1. Content Marketing Strategies</h3>\n<p>The B2B lead generation process is essentially exchanging information from your company and your website visitors. And we've already established the importance of creating innovative and engaging content to lure prospects in from the moment they enter the landing page.</p>\n<p>\"Lead Magnets\", as they're called, are helpful resources ranging from webinars, case studies, and research reports to How-to guides that you can offer to your prospective leads in exchange for their contact information.</p>\n<p>Your content strategy must feature a high-quality copy to optimize SEO so that more potential leads will arrive at your website through search engines.</p>\n<h3 id=\"2-social-media-strategies\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#2-social-media-strategies\" aria-label=\"2 social media strategies permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>2. Social Media Strategies</h3>\n<p>Social media allows a more targeted approach and thereby lets you refine the lead generation process. Professional platforms like LinkedIn proved that they could provide brands and businesses a space to engage with potential leads.</p>\n<p>Social media advertising is also very effective as more and more people join and signup to new <strong><a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/social-login/\">social login</a></strong> via these platforms every day, increasing your audience. Social media also makes targeted advertising possible as you can set up various factors like age, gender, location, and interests.</p>\n<p>Once again, your content's quality can greatly influence lead generation as audiences are more likely to be interested in engaging content than in plain sales messages.</p>\n<h3 id=\"3-paid-ads\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#3-paid-ads\" aria-label=\"3 paid ads permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>3. Paid Ads</h3>\n<p>PPC (Pay-per-click) or paid advertisements have their advantages, especially once you determine your target audience. While PPC is one of the easiest and best ways to achieve results quickly, it can also prove quite expensive. Not to mention that any ad block extension could altogether block your ads.</p>\n<p>There are various ways to post ads online to generate leads. The most frequently used and popular online advertising platform is Google Adwords, which lets you post advertisements across the Google network. You can choose from Search Network, Display Network and Remarketing to find the right option for you.</p>\n<h3 id=\"4-increase-the-number-of-social-media-shares\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#4-increase-the-number-of-social-media-shares\" aria-label=\"4 increase the number of social media shares permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>4.

Making \"Out of Stock\" a Business Opportunity</h3>\n<p>When you run out of products, you're losing out on consumers. What if we told you there's a way to turn that into an opportunity!

This way, you save a sale and also get the email addresses of potential leads.</p>\n<h3 id=\"6-build-your-email-list-using-the-godfather-strategy\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#6-build-your-email-list-using-the-godfather-strategy\" aria-label=\"6 build your email list using the godfather strategy permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>6.

Old, vague sales pitches don't work anymore. These days, there's more to be gained from personalization.</p>\n<p>Specified content that meets the interests and needs of prospects works better than a well-positioned generic pitch.

Using Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) to Improve Conversions</h3>\n<p>Creating scarcity or FOMO is a popular tactic that can greatly increase your conversion rate. It taps into the human psyche of wanting to have that which cannot be had.</p>\n<p>Use FOMO when you have limited offers, when a product is running out of stock, or when a product is purchased to attract more prospects. A word of caution, though, putting up a countdown on all your products might not give you the results you want as visitors can spot false offers. FOMO works best only when used sparingly or only when required.</p>\n<h3 id=\"8-use-intent-pop-ups-or-slide-in-opt-ins-on-key-pages\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#8-use-intent-pop-ups-or-slide-in-opt-ins-on-key-pages\" aria-label=\"8 use intent pop ups or slide in opt ins on key pages permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>8. Use Intent Pop-ups or Slide-in Opt-ins on Key Pages</h3>\n<p>Personalization is again the key here as personalized intent pop-ups work better than generic ones. However, it is vital to not block consumers from reading your content. Try using exit-intent pop-ups on your most important pages, or opt for a slide-in opt-in to reach your consumers without negatively impacting their experience on your site.</p>\n<h3 id=\"9-getting-a-50-conversion-rate-by-asking-questions\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#9-getting-a-50-conversion-rate-by-asking-questions\" aria-label=\"9 getting a 50 conversion rate by asking questions permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>9. Getting a 50% Conversion Rate by Asking Questions</h3>\n<p>The latest fad in effective B2B lead generation strategies is the quiz! And since it is not yet a mainstream strategy, quizzes haven't yet lost their novelty. Survey forms are inexpensive to run, very flexible in terms of the questions you'd like to ask, and are more dependable due to the anonymity they provide.</p>\n<p>Not to forget that your consumers like them! Create fun, engaging, and easy-to-use quizzes and surveys that can be both embedded in your website and sent out via email.</p>\n<h3 id=\"10-obtain-reputable-backlinks\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#10-obtain-reputable-backlinks\" aria-label=\"10 obtain reputable backlinks permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>10. Obtain Reputable Backlinks</h3>\n<p>Backlinks are the referrals and clients that a trusted website sends back to your website. B2B companies must gain the trust of websites to build backlinks. This can be achieved by writing blogs for other companies, having them share your content, gaining a spot in their <strong><a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/resources/\">resources</a></strong> section, and writing high-quality content that makes people want to link to.</p>\n<p>It is noteworthy to always research other websites before sharing your content on them, never purchasing backlinks, and never receiving backlinks from unknown sources.</p>\n<h3 id=\"11-use-your-imagination-when-sending-cold-emails\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#11-use-your-imagination-when-sending-cold-emails\" aria-label=\"11 use your imagination when sending cold emails permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>11. Use Your Imagination When Sending Cold Emails</h3>\n<p>Cold emailing is one of the toughest things to do as you don't know any information about the company or person you're emailing. It is, therefore, vital to make a good first impression to stand out from the crowd.</p>\n<p>Use your imagination, be funny, appropriate humor always scores! Incorporate GIFs or the latest memes to catch the attention of a prospect immediately.</p>\n<p>Avoid marketing lingo and keep your message simple and straight, and get right to the point. Follow up with at least two more simple and straightforward emails to improve your chances of being seen.</p>\n<p>Our tried and tested list of B2B lead generation tips has helped many generate some quality leads.

This is perhaps the reason why companies are prioritizing creating tailored experiences.</p>\n<p>Now talking about the B2B industry, hyper-personalization could make a huge impact by enhancing

hyper-personalization is the key to success for an online business.</p>\n<p>But how hyper-personalization can capture data and predict the next action?</p>\n<p>Well, unlike regular personalization, where static data inserts users’ names in page content, hyper-personalization quickly compares a user’s owned data with massive third-party data.</p>\n<p>The behavior and interest comparison enable the mechanism to predict future actions considering other users’ similar interests that further drives enhanced results across a brand’s marketing funnel.</p>\n<h2
