You Have a Firewall, But Do You Have a Cyber Bodyguard?
summary
Claims that 82% of breaches involve a human factor and that attackers increasingly target individuals for money or influence, not just networks. Shows tools and checks: use haveibeenpwned, switch to Brave/Firefox or Tor, try DuckDuckGo’s VPN to see app-to-broker traffic, and enable Android’s permission auto‑revocation. Notes ~600 tracked data brokers and that broker deletions work but are tedious paperwork and never one‑and‑done. Recommends pruning connected apps, tightening cookie and social settings, and prioritizing C‑suite footprint cleanup.
