Summary

Last year alone, 880,000 people fell victim to cybercrime, losing a staggering $12.5 billion. While cybercrime might seem like an unstoppable epidemic, much of it is actually preventable. The problem isn't that computers or software are too weak—it's that people are too easily fooled. This week, Adam talks with Rachel Tobac, an ethical hacker and CEO of SocialProof Security, to debunk common myths about hacking and share simple steps people can take to minimize their risk of becoming targets.
