Take a look at this diagram. It is like many that provide a great technical view of #cybersecurity, but fully ignoring the behavioral aspects. That makes this very shortsighted. Even if you had perfect technology controls, an admin making a mistake or purposeful attack, would bypass everything.

We honor those rebels, the colonists who stood against the most powerful navy and best trained professional army at the time, for a chance to be free to plot their own course in history.
Let us not forget what we fought for and what made this country a symbol of freedom, independence, and liberty.

Congrats to INTERPOL for taking down a major cyber information-theft infrastructure! Over 20k IPs/domains were shuttered and 41 servers containing 100+GB of sensitive data was seized. Over 200k victims of stolen login credentials, credit card info, and #cryptocurrency wallet keys.
