State of Cybercrime

Security Learn-It-Alls


Listen Later

Rather than referring our weekly podcast panelists as security experts, we’re now introducing them as security practitioners. Why? A popular business article on mindset brought to our attention the perils of having self-proclaimed titles, such as experts and gurus. It signals our “thirst for knowledge in a particular subject has been quenched.” That is far from reality! Security is a constantly evolving field, with new threats and vulnerabilities. To have a fighting chance, it would behoove us to start by cultivating a curious learner mindset by asking, “Why?” and “How does this work?”

As reformed security know-it-alls, here are some of the stories we covered:

  • Unroll.me apologizes for Not Being Clear It Sells User Data
  • Misinterpretation of Uber buying Unroll.me data
  • BrickerBot breaks unsecured gadgets
  • Antivirus Program Mistakenly IDs Windows as a Threat
  • Hacked Amazon seller accounts
  • Tool of the week: Account Lockout Status
