**DISCLAIMER: All of our opinions are our own. They do not represent, nor are they affiliated with the interests and beliefs of the companies we work for. **
In this episode, we discuss the obvious….BREACHES, BREACHES, EVERYWHERE!!! Maril & Erika discuss two recent breaches at large organizations: Uber & LastPass. Maril breaks down how they happened from an offensive perspective & as always Erika her common sense of how to avoid being a victim of a breach. We also offer guidance on how to be proactive vs. reactive to the day-to-day users. After listening to the live episode, we realized that the industry has a boatload of acronyms as usual! Don’t worry we are keeping a tally of them for you and plan to release a Cyber Acronym Cheat Sheet for you! I hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did and remember to share with a friend/family member/lover/whatever.
