509: Interview With Adam Engst Of the TidBITS Content Network

Topics:

-On today’s show, we welcome Adam Engst of TidBITS Content Network.

-We review key features of phishing emails, as discussed in a recent TCN article.

-One of the newer tricks is to send the entire email as an image.

-Will better grammar pose a challenge to users detecting spam emails?

-It takes just a beat longer to identify a spam email message.

-Legitimate training tools like KnowBe4 can be good to keep employees on their toes.

-We discuss the LastPass breach and how far reaching it was.

-Thieves are getting more clever by first capturing iPhone passcodes in public places, then stealing the device.

-A challenge to this is that the iPhone passcode can be used to reset an Apple ID password.

-This can also cause a company breach if an employee’s iPhone is stolen.
