I had the opportunity to speak with Jennifer Bullock, a news anchor with our local NBC News affiliate, and share some easy-to-understand tactics that consumers can use to protect themselves online. 💻 That segment aired last night as part of her Better Call 4 series, and I'm hoping it's the first of many. Ideally, this 3-minute clips will help someone avoid the frustration and expense of dealing with a malware infection or an account compromise. That said, I have another goal in my sights as well. If you're a cybersecurity professional, YOU have a similar opportunity to share what you've learned with one of your local news stations and help out folks in your neck of the woods. The thing is, those news stations won't know you can help unless you reach out and tell them. 🤔 I'm challenging every cybersecurity pro who reads this post to visit the websites for your local NBC, ABC, & CBS affiliates and find the anchor who owns their consumer advocacy and protection segment. Then I want you to contact the station, tell them who you are, and volunteer to contribute. Sites like LinkedIn and security conferences like the Central Ohio InfoSec Summit (where I'll be speaking later this month 😉) are great venues for sharing knowledge with other professionals in our line of work. But we can have a HUGE impact on protecting our friends and families by sharing what we've learned over the years via local news affiliates. Reach out to them, and then comment or send a message my way, letting me know you took that first step. It takes a village, folks. #InformationSecurity #Cybersecurity #SecurityAwareness #Leadership #CISO

Spam emails may seem like a harmless annoyance, cluttering up our inboxes and wasting our time. 📧 While many spam emails get sorted into junk folders, some still make their way into our main inbox - looking like legitimate emails from reputable sources. That's why it's important to use caution when opening and interacting with emails, even if they appear to be from a trusted sender - such as a bank, government agency, or well-known company. 🚫 To protect yourself from spam emails, here are some tips to keep in mind: • Be wary of emails that ask for personal information or financial details. Legitimate companies or organizations will never ask for this information via email. • Don't click on any links or download attachments from suspicious emails. These could contain malware or viruses that can compromise your device and personal information. • If you're unsure about an email's legitimacy, contact the sender directly through a trusted source (such as their official website) to verify its authenticity. Do you have any additional tips for identifying and avoiding malicious spam emails? #Cybersecurity #ThinkBeforeYouClick Link to article: https://lnkd.in/gehaN4ru
