Defense By Design

Oh, the stories I can tell in relation to 'THIS' one! Whether we're talking physical attacks, data breaches or fiscal con artists, you cannot simply "judge the book by its cover." And why is this approach so effective?

If you're a man, you don't typically ("typically") expect an attack from a woman, but if you're a woman you not only do not expect to be attacked by another woman, you often see another woman as an ally. And let's also factor in the elderly or teens/kids into the equation. Again, I have so many stories I can relay here from actual audience members over the years telling me how they or a close family member was duped by such approaches.

The problem is we stereotype versus profile, the former having to do with appearances while the latter has more to do with behaviors. There are behaviors to look for, verbiage to listen for, but who teaches such things and where can they be learned?

I offer both online courses that do just that as well as, of course, in-person instruction as well. For and alike, this is also how you reduce your internal risks related to physical, data and reputational harm. So for my and any out there seeking to reduce your vulnerabilities and/or liabilities, let's talk.

And for any or carrier, company or agency tired of paying out claims, settlements and judgements related to such approaches being applied to your commercial as well as personal lines clients, let's talk about educating them as well.

My first stab at using an A.I. platform so be kind in your critiques as it is the 'content' that I want you to focus on versus the production. I just wanted to see how this might translate.

This is about and what 'I' contribute to the conversation. I do not -- DO NOT -- address cyber security as such. Why? It changes daily! Rather, I address the more time-tested methods of social engineering that have been used throughout 'human' history to garner information, property, possessions, money and more. Human behavior, as opposed to technology, has not changed in eons. And these approaches are the silent killers as most are rarely detected until the damage is done. We all know 'hindsight' is 20/20 -- but what of foresight?

For those in and seeking to address these glaring gaps in data security, let's talk. My online courses allow for this or we can offer in-person instruction as well.

And for any carrier, company or agency seeking to help your commercial clients mitigate such risks, let's discuss a presentation to your client managers, owners, administrators and executives to widen their current aperture to such concerns and liabilities.
