The Security box, podcast 42: Has Experian learned anything?


Listen Later

Welcome to the security box, podcast 42. I think I've got two very interesting topics. One of these topics is the ongoing saga over at Experian. We know they had a big time breach, but do we really know what else is going on at the company? Brian has the entire details. Finally in the topic department, we know Ransomware has taken a big toll during the pandemic and there is no slowing down in that department. According to Cyberscoop, demands are higher by 43 percent so far in 2021. We'll talk about it. I'll also give you some news and notes, although it may be dated. Your questions and comments are always welcome, so please get in touch! I hope you enjoy the program as much as I have putting it together!
Topics
We used to put all of the notations within the file, but I've decided against that unless people want me to do that. I've heard nothing, so I'm reverting back to linking to the articles, and letting people decide on what interests them.
