Cybereducation101- Crypto.com Data Breach

Hey Techies!

With the increase in discussions around the stock market and the American economy, we think it is important to tie in the cybersecurity news with economics. Are you familiar with the data breach at Crypto.com that occurred in 2022? The breach compromised the personal information of over 3 million users, including names, email addresses, and phone numbers. While the breach did not involve any financial data, it is still a significant concern for all those affected. Hackers stole more than $15 million in Ethereum and nearly $20 million in Bitcoin.

At a time when cyberattacks are becoming increasingly common, it's essential to remain vigilant and take necessary steps to protect your personal information. We recommend implementing safe cybersecurity practices such as using strong passwords, enabling multi-factor authentication, and keeping software up-to-date, among others.

We also suggest staying up-to-date on the latest cybersecurity news and trends to be aware of potential threats and vulnerabilities. Finally, we want to take this opportunity to introduce our new cybersecurity newsletter that will cover the latest news, trends, and best practices to help you stay informed and secure. We encourage you to subscribe to our newsletter to receive regular updates and insights on the ever-changing cybersecurity landscape.
