0:39Hello, everybody. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm Heather Monthie. In today's episode, we're going to talk about ransomware. And just kind of briefly go over what it is exactly. And talk a little bit about some of the interesting article that I found online about ransomware. And then if you are a business owner, or somebody who works in a small business in it, or cybersecurity, NIST has recently released some guidelines for pre preventing ransomware attacks or protecting yourself against ransomware attacks, I want to talk a little bit about that as well. So first, the first article that I linked to in the show notes is from threat post, it's called ransomware as new swindle, triple extortion.

* Build your online presence.* Cultivate existing relationships.* Be clear on what you want from your career.* Stand out from the crowd online.* Find a mentor or coach.* Start up other projects.* Be open to short term work.* POSSIBLY invest in more education.

0:00Hello, everyone, welcome back to my podcast. I am Heather

0:04Monthie,

0:04your host for this podcast, I want to thank you for returning to listen to this podcast. It's been a hot minute since I've had an episode. And you know, I think that, like anyone COVID really helped to shift a lot of people's priorities, mine as well. And so what happened was the podcast just kind of got pushed down on the list of my priorities. Over the last almost year, I have had some career changes. And a lot of other things have just changed since COVID. So I hope you understand. And I'm glad that you're back, I'm glad to be back here, talking about STEM education, STEM careers, all those different things. In the past, the podcast was about the tn stem where we were talking specifically about technology education, we talked a lot about, you know, different aspects of technology. What I would like to do now going forward is really branch out more into all of STEM. So science, technology, engineering, math, talk about careers, workforce development, skills that are needed leadership, and even talking more about the skilled trades as well. I think that these are the careers of the future. And I want to share my expertise, my experience, I've been working in that industry for many, many, many years. And just with some changes in my life, I am able to share a little bit more about what's required to be successful in these particular fields. So you'll see going forward, we'll talk not just specifically about technology, we're going to really focus on the other areas of STEM, and then go into more of the skilled trades as well. Like I said, I want to talk about the stuff that's of the future. And I think that that's where things are going. So I want to be able to share that with you. So whether you you might be a teacher, you might be a principal, you might be a parent, you might be a person who works in one of these fields, you might be a person considering transitioning to a career in one of these fields, you might be a leader in one of these fields, who is interested in mentoring and helping others propel their careers. And maybe you already work in this field, and you want to become a more of a leader in this field. So this podcast is for you. So what I wanted to do today is really just get back into the swing of things for the podcast, and talk a little bit about what steps that you can take to either make a career transition, or to start your career amid a pandemic, some of the tasks that you might do are going to be the same. But you might approach them a little bit differently. And I wanted to go over I have eight different tips, tactical things that you can do to just really propel your career during a pandemic, whether you work in technology, you work in cybersecurity, you work in engineering, whatever it may be some of these things I have talked about before in the podcast. So some of this might be duplicate of what you've already heard. But it's always good to hear it again, right, especially if you're new. And this is the first episode that you're listening to. Number one is to build your online presence, I can't stress this enough is to you need to put things out into the web sphere that makes you searchable online. I always say that if you're not managing your online presence, Google is doing it for you. So if you don't have a blog, if you don't have a LinkedIn account, Google's really just deciding what pops up first when somebody Google's your name. So there could be other information out there news articles,

So in the last episode we talked about digital spring cleaning, and the things that you can do this time of year to just Kinda of clean up your digital clutter. Clean up your files all that kind of stuff, but I wanna do is talk about taking a more proactive stance in managing your digital presence. And so I taught a class several years ago to a group of teachers on how to manage their online reputation, and this was really before I mean facebook was around? But this is really before all the big social media platforms came out, and the concern at that time was really that there were a lot of students that had cell phones that they would essentially bait their teachers to into a some sort of reaction, and then they would film them. The students would film the instructors in their reaction. They will get them to. Just you know, do things they wouldn't normally do so. That was the big thing that was happening. At that time when I taught that class and so. What I did was just Kinda, gave some examples of some things that have happened over the years of why really have to be cognizant of your online reputation things like that, but that's not going to be the pointed episodes, so what I WANNA do today.

Get ready for another episode of the Tech for Regular People Podcast with me, Heather Monthie. This is THE podcast where I answer your tech questions you’ve always wanted to ask in a fun and entertaining way. You can easily ask me your questions by going to www.GoAskHeather.com Let’s get started with today’s topic!

Today’s topic is to help you figure out what it is that you should really be doing to manage all of your online passwords.

Tips:

Use STRONG passwords

* Upper case, lower case, symbols, and at least 8 characters* String random words together* Use unique passwords for every website you use

Don’t reuse your passwords

* Change your passwords every 6 months. Some companies want you to do it sooner.* You should also enable two-factor authentication (2FA)

If you’re going to write down your passwords, here are my tips:

* Don’t carry them around with you in your purse, work bag, etc* Store the piece of paper in a secure place at home, such as inside a book* Before you do this, think about what might happen if someone in your home got ahold of all that information

Be smart about sharing passwords

* Never share* Never send passwords in email* Be wary of phishing

Managing your online passwords

* Password managers* The more passwords you have, the harder it is to remember* Plus if they are really strong, it may be impossible to remember since they are random letters and numbers strung together* There are password managers that will remember all these passwords for you and you just have to enter one master password to get access to all your passwords.* This allows you to easily have a different strong password for each site you use.* You can enter in secure notes to help you remember the answers to your security questions* You can also set these up to sync between other computers, your smartphone, and tablets.

Password managers to investigate

* Norton 360* LastPass* 1Password* I will be providing a full review of various password managers on my YouTube channel in the upcoming weeks, so make sure to head over to Heather Monthie’s Tech Tips

Using secure websites

* Look for the padlock next to the URL in the address bar* Look for the site to start with HTTPS (instead of HTTP)* This means that the data sent/received is encrypted

Phishing

* These are emails that look like legitimate emails from your bank or retailer or the IRS* They try to entice you to open a link or an attachment (scams, tell you your account is locked, etc)* They try to catch you off guard* You are oftentimes sent to a website that looks just like your bank’s website to try to get you to login. This fake website will collect your user name and password.

Identifying phishing emails

* The IRS, your bank, etc won’t email you to discuss your account (bank statements might come through email, but even then, just log right into the page you know is your bank’s)* The email isn’t addressed to you. Maybe just a generic salutation* Poor spelling* The email is in plain text with no company graphics

What to do if you receive a possible phishing email.
