Compromising our critical infrastructure is an ongoing problem. Yet again, a telecom is hacked msn.com/en-us/money/co… #cybersecurity #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth

This is a huge and significant #CyberSecurity incident at F5. Hackers in the sytem for 12 months with "longterm persistent acess." Also stole source code. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth msn.com/en-us/money/ot…

October is #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth and @DefendCampaigns will host two training sessions and office hours on Oct 15 and 22 to help high-risk users activate important free #cybersecurity tools, and get core cybersecurity protections in place. These training sessions are for you if you are a candidate, work or consult for a campaign, work for an advocacy organization, a PAC, or a nonprofit engaged in politics. We will walk you through why enabling these defenses are important, and more importantly how to activate them. We know you may have questions as well so bring them with you. Everyone is welcome to attend. Check out our events for the month and register here: defendcampaigns.org/events #SecureOurWorld

Cyberattacks on political campaigns are evolving, & #AI is making them more dangerous than ever. How can we defend against identity-based threats? Find out at #Identiverse2025 w/ @MKaiserDDC from @DefendCampaigns and @RCManning from @Yubico! #cybersecurity identiverse.com/idv25/session/…

Political campaigns face high-risk cycles but lack security. Bad actors advance their tactics to access campaigns. @MKaiserDDC from @DefendCampaigns & @RCManning from @Yubico will discuss this @Identiverse, June 4. identiverse.com/idv25/session/… #cybersecurity #Identiverse #CRAEvents

We're excited to announce our partnership with @DefendCampaigns. Harassment, doxxing, and other digital attacks are often used to intimidate, silence, or coerce candidates, staff, and volunteers, ultimately threatening our democratic process. In working with DDC, we can amplify a shared mission: ensuring campaigns at every level have access to proactive safety measures without adding to their workload.

Digital executive protection is much more than PII data broker removals. At @DoppelHQ, we’ve protected some of the most high-profile VIP election candidates through @DefendCampaigns, and the scale of attacks required visibility and takedown capabilities across the entire digital landscape. We’ve entered a new era of cyber risk enabled by AI — one where personal likeness, public visibility, and executive influence are being weaponized at scale to target executives and their stakeholders, both business and personal. Today’s attackers don’t need to breach a firewall. They only need a convincing fake LinkedIn profile, a deepfake voice clip, or a single spoofed message from “the CEO.” At @DoppelHQ, we equip corporate teams with the most comprehensive digital executive protection solution possible for their VIPs without requiring driver’s licenses or access to personal lives. It’s not just about preventing impersonation, disinformation, and physical threats — it’s about preserving operational continuity, executive trust, and the integrity of your leadership itself. We have been having these discussions with security leaders and we put our key insights into this guide: doppel.com/the-executive-…
