Hosts:

Nevada's state government has been crippled by ransomware for nearly a month with most systems still down - and it's a wake-up call every business owner needs to hear. In this eye-opening episode, Justin and Mario dissect what makes some organizations recover quickly from cyberattacks while others remain paralyzed for weeks.
From Marriott's impressive ransomware response to Nevada's ongoing nightmare, discover why being "low hanging fruit" is more dangerous than having a target on your back. Plus: the Windows 10 end-of-life crisis hitting 40% of US computers next month, and why cutting corners on cybersecurity can turn a $500K problem into a $10M lawsuit.
Key topics: The difference between targeted attacks and opportunistic breaches, why government entities struggle with cyber recovery, Windows 10 end-of-life vulnerabilities, building a security-first culture, and practical steps every business can take today to avoid becoming the next cautionary tale.
