Everyone’s Fight, All The Time
Security awareness is not just another workplace routine, it’s one of the biggest global battles of our time. You’re not fighting a handful of hackers but an entire criminal ecosystem. You can do this.
Fighting Back With Habits
Fighting back against scams, whether at work or at home, is as simple as developing a handful of healthy habits. There’s a simple trick, and it’s called motivation. But it only works if it’s personal.
Motivation #1, Seniors And The Elderly
Scams against older adults are not just surging, estimated to now be costing more than $80 billion a year, but they’re also having a devastating health impact. They could be your parents or grandparents.
Motivation #2, Teen Sextortion
Dozens of kids and teens in America have taken their own lives in just the last few years because of a particularly nasty crime known as sextortion. Do you need any more motivation?
Meet The Prince
Don’t be mad at the crime. Be mad at the criminal. Like the highly respected entrepreneur often referred to as the Prince who netted billions of dollars running violent pig butchering camps that forced thousands of kidnapped workers to commit the scams that end up in your inbox.
Meet the Satanist
Meet the 11-year-old who terrorized a family with more than 100 cases of fraud and identity theft that lasted more than a decade. And all because of a silly online beef.
Fighting AI And Deepfakes with HI
AI and deepfakes are making it almost impossible to trust anything that we see or hear. But our best defence is still HI. Human intelligence. And so much is about focusing on the context.
Harnessing The Power Of Skepticism
The most powerful crime-fighting technology of them all just happens to be wedged right between your ears. And one of the many superhero crime-fighting powers inside that chaos machine in your head is – skepticism.
What Makes You More Likely To Be Victimized?
Some people more vulnerable than others to falling for a scam, and that’s what criminals are banking on. Understanding the psychology of crime could reduce your chances of being the next victim.
So What Are those habits?
The really good news is that there are not that many, none of them are new, and all of them come pretty naturally to we humans. Like slowing down, thinking first, displaying healthy scepticism, viewing sensitive data as real people and so on.
