The browser is one of the easiest access points for cyber criminals. Exploiting browser vulnerabilities for account takeover and damaging environments does not require sophisticated technological capabilities. In fact, sometimes simple social engineering is enough. Yet, most users and organizations don’t take browser security into consideration. Organizations set up security controls for much more sophisticated and complex types of attacks, while leaving browsers unprotected.

Our guest, Brett Johnson, aka “The Original Internet Godfather”, is a former US ‘Most Wanted Cybercriminal’ who now helps organizations protect themselves from attackers. Join us to hear from him about the cyber criminals’ point of view when attacking the organizational browser, how CISOs should protect organizations from the risks of human error, upcoming trends for online crime (including how the war in Ukraine is changing the cybercriminal landscape), which types of cyber crime are profitable, and a lot more.

If your company uses browsers (i.e, all of you) – this episode is a must listen.
