“Rather than presenting endless hypotheticals and data dumps, Scott delivers need-to-know best cybersecurity practices for any small business.” – Shelly Palmer, Technology Expert, CEO of The Palmer Group.

Blue collars, white collars, luminaries and luddites, cybersecurity is everybody’s business. We are all interconnected through our digital lives so we share our lives with both loved ones and those that might seek to harm us by stealing and exploiting our data. Since publication of his first book, Hacked Again, Scott Schoberhas dedicated himself to educating anyone who would listen by telling his own story of being hacked in the hope that others can learn from his own mistakes. Now joined by his brother Craig, the two have set their sights on the biggest target of all, small businesses.

“Cybersecurity is Everybody’s Business cuts through the prognostication, scare tactics and news cycle hype to deliver the most imperative guidance for securing small businesses and everyone else they do business with,”– Frank Abagnale, Security Consultant and inspiration for the film Catch Me If You Can
