In this episode, the task of protecting legacy systems by organizations are discussed. Dumpster diving is a popular term in cybersecurity today. Learning how to treat data differently is crucial, whether in transit, at rest or when data is considered obsolete. Also, how we treat trash can be the difference between being a victim of identity theft or blackmail and ensuring useful info from a "dumpster" is never used against us. And Electronic Arts were in a massive data breach that resulted in source code for FIFA 21 and the Frostbite engine stolen by Hackers.
