Hack-proof your life now! : the new cybersecurity rules : protect your email, computers, and bank accounts from hacks, malware, and identity theft / Sean M. Bailey and Devin Kropp.
Everyone is vulnerable to a cyber attack. Regardless of your age and station in life, one simple click of the mouse can open a Pandora's Box few of us could have imagined even five years ago. How we handle our online security is critical to protecting our personal and professional lives. But guidance for staying safe in the growing, interconnected world has been fragmented and confusing ... until now. Hack-Proof Your Life Now! demystifies the topic and introduces you to the New Cybersecurity Rules: clear, sensible, and do-able actions that will quickly improve your security. Authors Sean M. Bailey and Devin Kropp will show you how to measure your Cybersecurity Score and then teach you to improve your safety by acting in three areas: adding more Secrecy to your online life (such as a banking-only email address that hackers won t likely discover), becoming Omniscient over your financial affairs (so you can block identity theft and instantly spot fraud), and adopting principles of Mindfulness to stay safe every day (such as using their 10-Second EMAIL rule to spot dangerous blackmail spam). Each chapter features a Hack Report story that demonstrates a key security problem many of us face, a New Cybersecurity Rule that reduces or closes that exposure, and a specific Action Step to apply as you build up your defenses and improve your cybersecurity score. An Action Guide in the back provides extra details and helpful resources. In just a few hours, you can learn to hack-proof your life and fight back against hackers, thieves, and spammers.
