Welcome to the very first episode of the Cyber Safety Pod! My name is Victor and I will be your host. Let me begin by saying that I am not a cyber security expert. More like a cyber security groupie. But I have loved computers since I was a kid. But enough about me, Let's get to the episode.

Phishing is defined as the act of attempting to acquire (sensitive) information by posing as a trustworthy entity. And this episode is going to try and make you an anti-phishing expert.

I will go over some simple yet effective ways anyone can use, that will stop a phishing attack in its track. If you abide by these rules, you'll make yourself (and the company you work for) a harder target to hit.

Let us know what you think of the show! Or if you have corrections (we'll share them on the next episode) or suggestions please email us at: contact@cybersafetypod.com
