Enjoyed speaking at the Indiana Bankers Security Conference again this year!

According to the latest statistics, over 90% of IT security breaches do not require exceptional skills, and over 90% are preventable.

168 million email messages are sent every minute...and over 80% are spam.

Good information from an IT security expert: Passwords are the keys to your kingdom. Make sure they are at least 8 characters and not all letters. Change them periodically. Don't use the same password for everything, and don't use something easy to figure out like your name, part of your name, your date of birth, etc. Anyone want to guess what the most common password in Alabama is?

ID PLEASE!
A Dallas bank teller took a chance that a robber would be stupid enough to comply with her request to show two forms of identification. Her bet paid off. The robber, 49-year-old Nathan Wayne Pugh, searched his pockets and wallet to produce his debit card and state ID card. The teller stalled even more by slowly copying the information. Police arrived in time to apprehend Pugh trying to flee with $800.

Finishing the script and preparing to shoot our new robbery training video...
