EP 22 - Mythbusters

This week on Cyber Sense, Rob Holloway dives into the most persistent and dangerous myths in IT and cybersecurity. From the old belief that “Macs don’t get viruses” to the idea that “antivirus is all you need,” Rob breaks down why these misconceptions can leave individuals and businesses wide open to attack.

The episode also explores real world examples, including the Victoria’s Secret ransomware attack and the ConnectWise breach, highlighting how cybercriminal groups like Scattered Spider are evolving their tactics. Alongside myth-busting, listeners get practical tips on stronger authentication, file deletion, cloud security, and the dangers of public Wi-Fi.

If you’ve ever believed you can spot every phishing email, that incognito mode makes you anonymous, or that hackers only go after “the big guys,” this episode will set the record straight and give you the tools to stay safer online.
