Hacker Attractor

Ethical hackers are IT professionals who simulate hacking situations within an organization in order to identify blind spots and potential threats, to ultimately protect against cyber attacks. Many large organizations and financial institutions regularly engage in ethical hacking practices to gain insight into vulnerabilities and avoid potential data breaches. On this episode of C Suite, Zane leads us through a step-by-step simulated hack of one of our show producers, Steph. The demonstration reveals some of the cybersecurity blind spots many of us may be missing, and what a hacker can do once they gain access to your network. Zane shares the inner workings of a malware attack or email phishing scheme, what can make you an easy target, and tips for how we can all protect our devices from a similar breach.
