This video speaks volumes about our country’s attitudes towards cybersecurity:
Last week, I wrote about the importance of creating a culture that makes protection of trade secrets a top-line priority. This video shows why this culture is so important. Your employees need to be constantly aware of surreptitious attempts to get passwords. Spear phishing attacks are becoming more and more sophisticated; your employees need to be immediately suspicious of any attempt to get personal information, particularly passwords.
In the real world, bad actors are far more subtle than a Jimmy Kimmel reporter with a microphone and a video camera. The fact that people are willing to turn over their passwords on TV shows—particularly now, when cybersecurity issues have never been more visible—is depressing. Make sure your employees know better.
