1).\u00a0<\/strong>THREAT INTEL:<\/strong> There\u2019s a fine line between incompetence, negligence, and collusion<\/strong> Cyberattacks are not solely used for Cybercrime<\/strong>, but for Money Laundering and rebalancing global wealth. Like the blatant corruption that has been allowed to go on before, it is rarely, if ever attributed and simply passed off as some \u2018Threat Actor, or aggressive Nation State. The narrative is always pre-set.\u201d We live in unprecedented times where Vote Rigging, Corruption, Cyberattacks, Fraud and the loss of many lives have become daily news.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

2).\u00a0<\/strong>THREAT INTEL: Egos, Arrogance, and Ignorance: The True Cost of Cyber Negligence. <\/strong>Organizations\u2019 egos and ignorance are endangering millions globally, leading to devastating Cyberattacks<\/strong>, even fatalities. Security should NOT be about secrecy and evasion; it\u2019s about transparency, accountability, and proactive measures. If we truly want to combat Cybercrime<\/strong>, we must abandon this culture of negligence and cover-ups. It\u2019s time to get real, take responsibility, and safeguard lives through genuine security efforts, not excuses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
