Our digital lives are under attack from every direction. Cyber Crisis author Eric Cole breaks down the threats and shows how to stay one step ahead!

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1247

What We Discuss with Dr. Eric Cole:

  • Cyberattacks now happen constantly as AI automates phishing and vulnerability scanning against individuals, small businesses, and major institutions.
  • Criminal operations abroad run like full corporations — thousands of employees, millions in revenue, and no risk of prosecution due to weak or nonexistent extradition.
  • Critical infrastructure often uses outdated, insecure systems, allowing adversaries inside power grids and networks long before an attack becomes visible.
  • Devices, apps, and "free" tools routinely track conversations and behavior — even smart speakers have been used as evidence after recording private moments.
  • You can dramatically reduce your risk by treating security like investing: assess the benefit vs. the exposure, minimize downside, and adopt simple, deliberate habits.
  • And much more...

And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!
