RSN™ Insights: Top 8 Events That Changed Cybersecurity [Infographic]

While threats continue to develop, so does the defense against them. It’s important to remember these past events in order to combat impending attacks. Milestone incidents are what made cybersecurity what it is today – take a look at the top 8 events that changed cybersecurity, and why they (still) matter.

Why does this matter to a romance scam victim?

Because you are the victim of a fundamental failure of cybersecurity. The failure was both the institutions that permitted the scammers to thrive and your own for not avoiding it. In both cases it is a lack of awareness and the ability to learn and act.

This all matters because you are a resident of the Internet and must be aware of the larger dangers out there. This is but one attempt to help you learn what monsters live online.

FAQ: How Do You Properly Report Scammers?

It is essential that law enforcement knows about scams & scammers, even though there is nothing (in most cases) that they can do.

Always report scams involving money lost or where you received money to:

Local Police – ask them to take an “informational” police report – say you need it for your insurance
Your National Police or FBI (www.IC3.gov)
The Scars Worldwide Reporting Network HERE or on www.Anyscam.com

This helps your government understand the problem, and allows law enforcement to add scammers on watch lists worldwide.
