MintzTech Connect Industry News: Spotlight on mePrism

Google yourself. Why? You should know what is out there. You will find numerous companies selling personal information about you and your family to anyone who wants it. This is the same information that gets traded on the dark web. Cybercriminals purchase detailed personal information legally from ‘data broker’ and ‘people search’ sites regularly. They use our sensitive information to launch ransomware attacks on individuals and businesses. In the United States, the FBI received reports in 2021 alone of nearly $7 billion in losses due to cyberattacks. These online attacks are a risk for every small and large business, without exception. So, how do we fight back? It’s not easy to prevent bad people from doing bad things. But if they can’t find your email address or phone number, it is a lot harder for them to tap into their usual bag of tricks. That’s where mePrism comes in.
