Are you a freelancer or small business owner? I hope this has been useful to you! What's the biggest fear you have in regard to your business or personal security?
Just discovered your channel and loving the content, thank you. Regarding the PostScanMail, I worry that this too compromises security because someone is physically scanning my mail and could slowly build a pretty good file on my business. A lot of these facilities are just post offices within small shops with employees that are likely not vetted for security by the company or closely monitored (my guess). To stay secure I use a physical virtual office that keeps my mail and then if I'm overseas a family member I trust picks it up and scans it over to me. Would love to hear your thoughts on this as PostScanMail would be much more convenient and 1/4th the cost for me.
Just found your channel and I really appreciate the knowledge you put out here for free. I'm new to online security and taking it serious now so you're a really big help! Thank you so much!!
such an interesting and imo important topic to cover would love to see more of this. would maybe love to know if there is something to pay attention to, when making my own website, or selling through shopify, etc. how much do i as a freelancer have to worry about my costumers/clients data? wether from invoices, or emails being collected? or securing their payment methods on my site? how to securely keep what is needed and securely erase what is not? what about my own ip? would also love to hear in more detail about most of the topics mentioned in the video other than that, i'm a complete noob to this, so not sure what else to even mention, but i'm here for it
Hey, can you show me how do you remove accounts from Google Authenticator I have heard and can’t stop thinking about it and switch to Authy I have been seriously overthinking and asking friend if I should use Google Authenticator or Authy so can you make a video of how you do it or leave a comment?
I mean even weakest form of 2FA is more secure than for example disabeling password authentication and using just SSH certificate to access SSH servers :D. Nowadays if someone manages to steal your phone, you can.....oh I don't know, call your mobile provider and ask them to shutdown the sim, most cases all you have to do, is call police, tell them your phone number and ask them to inform your mobile service provider for you, if you just so happen to be unable to do that, and don't tell me you would hang around mostly in areas, where people aren't willing to lend a phone for you to call police. Yes sim swapping is possible, but how would someone do that from 20km away from your phone or without your knowledge? Now if someone steals your phone and you are too stupid not to set your sim to require pin code when device it is connected to turns on nor walk to nearest place with phone and ask people there to lend a phone so you can call the cops or at least shut down your SIM, that's on you. With that kind of mentality: Anyone can use your credit card Anyone can use your ID to take loans etc. (which btw wont be even hard, if you are stupid enough to share your whole life in social media) Anyone can enter your house without a key Anyone can enter your car and start it up without the key Anyone can use your computer. You get the idea. So better start putting on your folio hat and crawl to a corner
Also you don't even want most secure 2FAs out there, since those can't be recovered if you loose them (I mean if your credit card gets lost, your bank COULD just reactivate it once you find them, but since anyone can claim they are you on the phone, they won't) For example physical 2FA keys or devices are unique and can't be replaced, you can have multiple ones bound to 1 account, but you can't use just any authenticator even if it uses finger print. You bind 2FA usb to your google account and quite possibly even google won't be able to disable it, so if you loose the 2FA USB and don't have backup keys, you are completely locked out from that account forever since they are unique and you can only use ones that you have added to your account. I can tell you from experience, that unless you have VERY crucial data to protect, it is not worth even try to secure them anymore than what commonly is avialable. Everything that YOU can terminate just with simple phone call or by formating your drives and doing clean OS installation isn't crucial. In case someone steals your credit card info or any account information or phone you can terminate money transfers, credit card payments, your e-mail account, your mobile connection and so on just by calling each service and tell them to do that, also you can call the cops if need be and they do most of that for you and no, it really isn't that hard to find a phone if you don't have phone as long as there are other people near by living or working, all those services use phone numbers which are available 24/7 and respond quite fast (it takes 24h or till next work day to actually payments and such go through whole process, past 24 hour or next work day timeline, it's bit harder.) All you personally got to loose, is pride and having to wait for new cards and create new accounts etc. If your computer gets infected by a virus or ransomware, as long as there aren't any files that you absolutely cannot loose (like 10 000 000 peoples patient records, phone numbers, credit card info etc) and worst that would happen, is your parents getting videos and pictures of you having sex with 5 prostitutes etc., then you can just wipe the drive and re-install OS. Also despite using most hard core security methods out there, simply by publishing photo on facebook or saying something confidential on phone in public, you might be putting yourself and others privacy and security methods at risk. I can bet you won't be able to protect your online accounts nor privacy against hacking methods, used against servers and banks etc. In fact google makes millions of adds revenue from each video you watch on youtube and each google seacrh you do, and adblocker isn't able to prevent that. Real proffessionals in hacking and scammin world use something called social engineering to reach their goals, see how many people just by asking someone to hold the doors for them, get inside schools and elevators which doors are locked and require authorisation either from reception, or you swipe pass card on the card reader, see how many people are willing to tell other peoples phone numbers without asking if it is ok. How often do you hit windows+L (lock computer hot key) when you leave your computer to pickup a drink or go to the toilet etc? How many teachers you see writing Wifi passwords on the chalk board which is visible outside? How often you can see any office worker on computer their back against window and you being able to clearly see whats on the monitor? As you can see, there are ways to compromise even most secure establishments, and you don't even need to be tech wiz or even need a computer for that.
I worked in IT department of a school few months ago. And boy did I learned how important it was for me to basically let things I heard inside from 1 ear to out from other and double check from who I received Teams meeting invites and e-mail from. Also I remember one time having to interroupt class because one student was reading his personal e-mail monitor facing towards corridor side of the window -_- Sadly I also witnessed first hand what carelesness does, one student was beaten to death at school, because someone let wrong kind of person in -_- That's core example of "what if" situation you need to think about. I mean you don't fasten your seat belt when you go into a car because you will definetly crash, you do it because it COULD happen.

I see. Your address shouldn’t matter since you would either be shipping the product or meeting the buyer somewhere other than your house. It yes, you can still use a virtual phone number so you don’t have to give out your actual number. Hushed would work great for that b

Hi Josh, would you please be kind enough to add Latin American Spanish subtitles to this video as you have on several in the past?
Done…I’ll be faster about it next time!

How make privacy protected using paypal when they send full information to customer
They only send address information, they don’t send credit card info.
@@AllThingsSecured well,i have problem and don't like that they send personal information.There is no service like paypal just with higher privacy ?
Tip nr 3 : 2fa .. there is something called a sim swap .. be very careful with you numbers .. maybe even get one specific for this
OR…don’t use SMS text for 2FA, which I believe is a better way to fix this problem.
@@AllThingsSecured ohh yeah you have a video on yubikey ... 👌

Loved it . I am indeed self employed. But now you opened many questions . How do we do what you mentioned !?
Which part in particular?

To create a brand New FB account …? Isn’t ? I think that FB, ESTY etc wouldn’t allow it .
