Cybercrime has reached pandemic and unsustainable levels, crippling organizations, economies, and societies globally.

Cybercrime is the single largest danger and threat to humanity.

The issue isn’t just a matter of being under-resourced; it’s exacerbated by demonstrable gross security negligence of tech giants and third-party’s.

This dire situation is even further exacerbated by Attorneys and Regulators who exploit victims and capitalize upon their often enforced vulnerabilities, forcing already victimized companies to pay further for their unknown, Enforced Insecurity Entrapment.

Ironically and paradoxically, the very same legal and regulatory bodies harbour identical security lapses due to their own lack of knowledge and ignorance.

The carrot and cane approach—Rewarding Ignorance and Punishing the Unknowingly Exposed—is proving to be truly devastating.

The situation allows systemic vulnerabilities to fester, enabling Cybercriminals to repeatedly exploit the same exposure and weaknesses with ease time after time. This cycle of blame and punishment actually detracts from addressing the core issue: a fundamental lack of Internet Asset security and DNS understanding and commitment.

A revolution is desperately needed.

Organizations must prioritize Cybersecurity at every level, scrutinizing third-party providers and demanding transparency and accountability. Attorneys and Regulators, instead of exacerbating the problem, MUST lead by example by addressing and fortifying their own defenses and supporting exploited companies with REAL Actionable Intelligence and resources.

The time for complacency is over. Without a concerted effort to enhance cybersecurity knowledge and practices, we risk having nothing left to defend.

It’s imperative to shift from the current Ignorance to Awareness, from Negligence to Vigilance, ensuring a secure digital future for all.
