 Notable Quotes 

1.      "At the end of the day, the business owners are the ones who have the assets that are getting stolen."

2.      "We have this thing called the optimism bias. We don't think bad things will happen to us. Even more so, we don't think bad things will happen to us as compared to thinking good things will happen to us. We hire people. We know I can trust. So why would they steal?"

3.      "Don't look at it as a cost center. Give the fraud professionals the ability to keep training into networking."

4.     "The genius of LinkedIn is you meet the person, you sent you sent the invitation, you meet the person, and a couple years down the road, you're like that person pops up the again. And you go back in your messages and you remember, oh, yeah. I saw them there. I connected there."
