Description

In this episode, we cover:

• ✅ How Jeremiah went from bootstrapping websites during the dot-com boom to building a global cybersecurity business.
• ✅ Why most cybercrime isn’t about “hacking systems,” it’s about hacking humans.
• ✅ The emotional tricks scammers use, and how to spot them before you get duped.
• ✅ Real-world stories of cybercrime that cost companies hundreds of thousands of dollars in seconds.
• ✅ The single most important (and shockingly simple) thing you can do to protect yourself today.

Jeremiah also shares powerful insights from his keynote, Confessions of a Hacker, including why it’s often too late once the money is gone, and how you can take smart, preventative action without expensive software or technical know-how.
