Cyber Extortion

Cyber Savvy

What do cybercriminals do with the information they may take after a successful phishing attempt? On this episode of Cyber Savvy Andrew and Mike will discuss Cyber Extortion. Victims of cyber extortion can range from individuals to small businesses, to huge corporate entities. Listen in as Mike details some of the dangers and costs that can be faced once cybercriminals have gotten their hands on sensitive information.

Andrew Rose began a cybersecurity awareness program in 2016 while at a major agricultural bank after recognizing that the ag sector wasn’t getting the attention it needed about the risks posed by cybercriminals and other adversaries. He helped coordinate several symposiums and events focusing on the topic. He is now an independent contractor and volunteers his time to bringing cybersecurity awareness, education, mitigation, and response to the ag and food supply chain (and other special projects). His focus is on mitigating emerging threats. In addition to his experience in cybersecurity, he has a deep understanding of banking/finance, risk management, and other professional service sectors related to food, agriculture, and climate.

Michael Urbanik is an Account Executive with R.K Tongue Co., Inc. and is licensed in both Life & Health and Property & Casualty Insurance. He has experience working with both large and middle market commercial clients. He enjoys helping his clients understand the risks they face and develop cost effective plans to successfully mitigate and transfer these risks.
