Surviving A Cyberattack

The depth and breadth of cyberattacks and data breaches in the past few years is breathtaking, and as a result; it's fairly likely that pretty much everybody in this country has had at least some their personal information stolen. Some examples of extremely serious recent incidents include the March 2024 AT& T breach, which resulted the dark web dissemination of data from 7.6 million current account holders and approximately 65.4 million former account holders, last year's MOVEit breach, which resulted in the loss of data from at least 62 million people, and 2,000 organizations, as well as the May 2024 Ticketmaster breach, affecting 560 million customers. In addition, with the introduction of new, more robust AI-powered hacking tools; the bar to entry for would-be hackers has become astonishingly low, and hacking as a lucrative source of income for a vast network of criminal enterprises is growing. But, while the bad guys are most definitely strong and smart; there are still some things you can do to protect yourself, according to our special guest, and former federal law enforcement officer, Art Bowker. Listen now to find out how, as he talks about the soon-to-be-released new book he co-wrote with Todd Shipley; "Surviving a Cyberattack: Securing Social Media & Protecting Your Home".
