At the company I worked as an IT specialist all USB ports are scanned for illegal activities as soon as you plug something in. Some people in admin weren't even allowed active USB ports on their PC's. My personal motto in any case is at home to scan everything for malware and viruses whether downloaded or plugged in. And always the first thing to do with a new device is to install a reputable antivirus/malware software package. If I was the head of any big company I would make a Cybersecurity course mandatory for all new employees starting the first day of work in the company. If your job requires touching a keyboard then you do the Cybersecurity course. The same principles can be used for personal mobile devices. It's not that scary.
who benefits at the end of the day... sounds like a marketing pitch. any idiot who inserts an external drive onto a sensitive computer is negligent and needs to be treated as such.
Due respect to the interviewee, but it's not that simple. In parricular he hammers on about USB dongles / flashdrives. Whilst there may be some credibly in connecting these devices, initiating cyber attacks through using it is unlikely. Provided of course security and firewall software is up to date that most likely being the case, particularly where businesses are concerned, devices containing malware will be detected on connection, isolated and the threat neutralized.
Its very easy trust me. As a developer i know ( see cyberduck modules running python code and payload for both windows/linux os) it takes less than 3000ms to drop shell rights take over.
You cant be scamed or hacked if you are aware of all their tricks. Old people are only learning now. 25yrs of the internet and only now they learn. Amazing
It is not only old people! I am 75 but have had a computer in my home since 1975. I am very wary of digital devices because I know how easy it is for people to take advantage of the innocent people, many of whom are from a disadvantaged background.
I don't do tv I now use my phone only it's my computer tv etc etc. I watch you tube films. I do all the other things you do but only sunscreen no makeup. I started cutting my own hair at 16 so at 73 I have saved a lot on that one. Great to hear you do these sensible things too!
This platform is slowly losing it's credibility. You clearly have not done your due diligence on this speaker, and you call yourself an investigative journalist? Laughable.
Profit loss, Increased bills, Too many errors with work schedules, missing data, unessessary OTP messages, malfunction, warning messages on systems, confusion etc....
Reality - you won't. You'll only know when it's too late. Keep your router updated, use a secure DNS or DoT / DoH , have all guests on a isolated guest WiFi point.
Don't plug any USBs into your machines. Don't click on random links or links you do not know about in emails or online when browsing, ALWAYS look at the URL. Use a password manager and do not store them in your browser also apply multifactor authentication to everything.

THIS IS NOT A CYBERSECURITY EXPERT
Light entertainment for a Friday afternoon... love it.
Talks like a criminal to me
He’s not even answering the questions, he is very clueless
lol Yep ... I still appreciate the initiative to bring awareness though.

Alright the country is way back on that most risks are caused by users no matter how secure systems are.
*This guy blew my mind.....*
_...with his purty curtains._
I'm thinking he's watched one or two Network Chuck videos.
In the age of AI, information is going to become more valuable than money

He does not explain properly
As a person in cybersecurity, this was honestly painful to watch/listen to.
He 'prickled' my interest when he started talking about people being cloned and walking around.
Officials are corrupt they don't even need to be hacked.

Firewalls not effective they are detected as keyboards. Name one firewall or antivirus that ever scans or block keyboards or mice
Vet your interview subjects, this is embarrassing

I would like to be recruited to a cyber gang. It sounds like a fancy crime honestly😂
😂 start paying bribes you will end up there
😂😂😂Another copy paste video...
How do you know if you have been compromised?
Profit loss, Increased bills, Too many errors with work schedules, missing data, unessessary OTP messages, malfunction, warning messages on systems, confusion etc....

Please don't get this guy. So many words and no info.
Are there any hackers in here?
Yes.
How to stop it???
Don't plug any USBs into your machines. Don't click on random links or links you do not know about in emails or online when browsing, ALWAYS look at the URL. Use a password manager and do not store them in your browser also apply multifactor authentication to everything.
Also beware of QR codes.

Smart devices.
Educate yourself :) Google "Free cyber security training".
