Episode: Cyberattacks are soaring
Description: In recent weeks, sophisticated computer hackers have infiltrated some high-profile targets, including Scouts Canada, the LCBO, and even SickKids Hospital. In Sault Ste. Marie, a ransomware attack forced the Huron-Superior Catholic District School Board to send kids home early for the Christmas holidays. Why are cyberattacks on the rise? What steps can organizations do to protect themselves? Why do you still insist on using 1234 as your password? On this week’s episode, Scott and Frisco talk to Sai Huda, a best-selling author and founder of CyberCatch, a leading online security firm.
