Jingle Bells, Phishing Tales: Reflecting on Cybersecurity in the Holiday Spirit

In this special Holiday edition of Discarded, the tables are turned with hosts, Selena and Crista, becoming the answer-ers, our returning Moderator, Mindy Semling, as the question asker, and our wonderful audience is transformed into Cyber Elves. This conversation is lively and filled with questions from a variety of engaged audience members. (Thank you to everyone who contributed). Questions range from career advice for aspiring Cyber Threat Analysts, to certain threats exploding in popularity, to a reflection of 2023.
