Innovate First, Deliver PSAs Later

Today even if we create a very useful language, IoT device, or software, at some point, we have to go back to fix the security or send out PSAs. Troy Hunt, known for his consumer advocacy work on breaches, understands this very well. He recently delivered a very practical PSA: Don’t tell people to turn off Windows update, just don’t. We also delivered a few PSAs of our own: cybercriminals viewour linkedin profiles to deliver more targeted phish emails, whether we’d prefer to deal with ransomware or cryptomalware, and the six laws of technology everyone should know.
