Listen "Ransomware and Cybercrime: The Role of Basic Security in Preventing Breaches"
Episode Synopsis
Ransomware and cybercrime are escalating threats, yet many breaches stem from a basic vulnerability: poor internet security. In this episode, we explore insights from Andrew Jenkinson’s Ransomware and Cybercrime, where he examines how compromised internet-facing domains with low security ratings are behind countless cyberattacks. Jenkinson critiques the failure to prioritize preventive measures, even within governments and cybersecurity sectors, calling for a shift towards proactive security practices. We discuss case studies, the challenges of global cybersecurity, and the need for a more unified approach to combating these growing threats. Tune in for a candid look at how neglected basics are fueling cybercrime and how we can turn the tide.
