Cybersecurity threats against homeowners associations are increasing, and HOAs are becoming prime targets for cyber attacks, fraud, and data breaches. In this episode of The Uncommon Area, host Matthew Holbrook is joined by Brad Perry, CIO at Action Property Management, to break down what HOA board members and managers need to know about cybersecurity today.
This conversation covers why the human element is the biggest cybersecurity risk, how phishing and spear-phishing attacks work, and why HOAs must take a layered approach to digital protection. Brad explains the importance of cybersecurity training, multi-factor authentication, device security, and working with a management company that maintains and documents secure systems.
The episode also explores how artificial intelligence is making cyber attacks more convincing through voice and video scams, and what boards should do if a breach occurs.
If you are an HOA board member, property manager, or real estate professional responsible for safeguarding association finances and resident data, this episode provides practical guidance you can act on right away.
