A Sobering Look at Cyber Security

by Shelly Palmer

Now think about your digital life and how you have protected it? You have a few easy to remember passwords, a “came with your computer” firewall, a messy hard drive that may or may not have the latest antivirus software on it because it’s too big of a pain to update. If a motivated criminal wanted to get into your house, they would practically waltz in. Your sense of security is based upon where you live, your faith in the police and the size of your insurance policy. If a motivated hacker targeted you, you literally would not know you had been attacked until after it was over. From a skilled hacker’s point of view, you have glass windows, glass doors, the lights are off, there’s nobody home and you left the back door open.
