So Important just listened to a talk about this by an elder attorney. The schemes they are pulling on people are insane and it's so easy to get fooled until you have someone else's perspective but it puts people in a place they are scared to get any help
It is wonderful timing that Cybersecurity Awareness Month is right before election time here in the US. It helps drive home one of the most important truths about cybersecurity and privacy, that the "free market" isn't a relevant force in creating good security and privacy. Sadly, regulation is the strongest tool for creating more secure and private online worlds. Keep this in mind as the next few weeks pass.
🔐 October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month! 🚨 Tip #1: Think Before You Click! Scammers use emails, text messages, and social media posts to trick you into clicking dangerous links. Before you click, take a moment to check the sender and watch for suspicious links, urgent warnings, or offers that seem too good to be true. ⚠️ When in doubt, DON'T click! Stay Connected. Stay Protected. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth #ThinkBeforeYouClick #OnlineSafety #WesternIowaNetworks
Don’t make it easy for hackers! • Use strong passwords. Make them long, unique and randomly use symbols, numbers, upper/lowercase letters. • Turn on multifactor authentication. Requiring an additional step (like a face scan or a PIN sent to your phone) can keep hackers out of your accounts. October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month and the South Carolina Department of Consumer Affairs (SCDCA) encourages you to protect your data and personal information.

Sophisticated scams can look like genuine support. Fraudsters may pose as trusted organisations and ask you to install software or give them remote access to your device. This Cybersecurity Awareness Month, know the red flags, verify requests through official channels and never share your passwords, PINs or OTPs.
No one thinks they'll fall for a scam until they do. Our first Cybersecurity Awareness Month tip: we're all busy and moving fast, that's exactly what our adversaries count on. A message that feels urgent, familiar, or a little bit alarming can get a click before we've had time to think. Take a few extra seconds to verify before you click, scan, or reply.

Kaiser Permanente KP’s cybersecurity controls raise serious questions about their effectiveness. I’m aware of vendor employees who have relied on unauthorized external individuals with no formal affiliation with either KP or the vendor to complete Salesforce-related work, apparently without detection for nearly two years. This raises concerns about access management, third-party oversight, and the effectiveness of monitoring and enforcement mechanisms.
