Taking a break from our usual format, this week we chat with a victim-turned-CEO who was hit by SIM-swapping attacks. However, not all harsh starts have to end that way, and Haseeb Awan made the best of a bad situation. After being compromised not once… nor twice, but four times, Haseeb eventually took matters into his own hands and developed a new solution and company, Efani.

Haseeb was kind enough to share his personal experience of being SIM swapped where he describes the fear and anxiety felt as a result of the attacks and explained how easy it is to compromise a phone number.
