Unfortunately, the illegal and unethical use of cyber technology has made your job more complicated. Knowing what types of activities are the most vulnerable will help you in your efforts to protect yourself, your employees, and your clients.

Did you know that human error continues to be one of the most significant causes of data and security breaches? In today’s world these risks and exposures come into play with just about everything we do. Experiencing a security compromise can include not only the ones we usually think about such as when we make online purchases with credit or debit cards or with spam e-mail or cell phone calls. It also can come from unexpected places such as signals which are emitted from our car or airplane navigation systems, or unauthorized access to your medical records or the transmission of data to and from medical devices such as pacemakers.
