Episode Description:
Welcome to a new kind of threat briefing — one where your keyboard is a frontline, and your data is a target. In this episode of Red Dot Mindset, our AI-hosted platform delivers tactical insights for protecting your digital footprint from modern-day adversaries.
Created by Mickey Middaugh, U.S. Air Force Security Forces (Ret.) and founder of Grey Matter Ops, this episode equips you with mission-critical strategies to harden your digital perimeter: password protocols, MFA, VPNs, threat detection, and digital footprint reduction.

Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
