In this episode of Bad Actors, host Rebecca Cradick is joined by cybersecurity expert and leader in governance, risk, and compliance, Abi Dakin. Abi, who is neurodiverse and has a background in risk management, compliance, and security strategy, believes in making cybersecurity accessible and aligned with business goals.

Abi and Rebecca discuss how legislation, like GDPR, NIS2, and DORA, is shaping the cyber landscape and the challenges of building trust within a supply chain. In addition, they tackle the question: Are people the weakest link in cybersecurity? Abi shares her unique perspective on how human error and evolving cyber threats necessitate a "people-first" approach, focusing on education, secure tools, and technologies like Zero Trust frameworks.

This conversation is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the intersection of human behavior, technology, and policy in the world of digital defense.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
