The Cyber Advisor - Educate, Inform, Empower.

Hi there,

For a glaring example of the disconnect between U.S. lawmakers and the reality of cyber risk today, despite the Clinton email debacle, read below: "1,000 RNC Attendees Easily Hacked by Fake WiFi Spoof." 

Without a VPN this could have happened to any of us, and bad guys of all stripes will take full advantage of the disconnect for many years to come.

Think this sounds extreme? Well, how about marking the moment cybercrime went existential? "Cybercrime Overtakes Traditional Crimes in the UK." Cybercrime is now the #1 offense in the land that originated common law. And, as the National Crime Agency reported "is still growing exponentially." 

For a fascinating look at how even a Wall Street risk manager, a "Master of the Universe", is scammed when dealing with a typical, unprotected real estate agent using "free" email, see: "A Red Flag and Leading Indicator for Cyber Risk in Real Estate Sales." 

The more profound message in the story is about the changing nature of risk, the astounding level of apathy about it, and the multi-year Golden Age of opportunity it opens for professional criminals from around the world.

Thanks for reading,
