In this episode of The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, we recount some hacker history, and with the help of John Hammond, Principal Security Researcher at Huntress, tell the story of the MOVEit cyberattack: the biggest data theft of 2023.The MOVEit cyberbreach, was a far-reaching cyber attack that unfolded with significant implications worldwide. The breach initially came to light on June 3, when the Government of Nova Scotia disclosed that approximately 100,000 of its current and former employees had been affected, signaling the severity of the breach's impact.The scope of the breach widened on June 5, as it became apparent that numerous organizations in the United Kingdom had also fallen victim. Among those affected were prominent entities such as the BBC, British Airways, Boots, Aer Lingus, and the payroll service provider Zellis. This phase of the breach underscored its indiscriminate nature, with targets spanning across various sectors.Further developments were reported on June 12, with major organizations like Ernst & Young, Transport for London, and Ofcom announcing their entanglement in the breach. Of particular concern was Ofcom's revelation that personal and confidential information had been compromised, highlighting the breach's capacity to infiltrate and extract sensitive data.The United States felt the breach's ramifications by June 15, with reports confirming that the Department of Energy, among other federal entities, was impacted by the MOVEit vulnerability. The breach's reach extended further on June 16, affecting state-level organizations such as the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles and Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services, thereby impacting millions of American residents.By October 25, 2023, a report from the cybersecurity firm Emsisoft indicated that the MOVEit cyberbreach had affected over 2,500 organizations globally, with a significant 80% of these being based in the United States. This breach highlights the critical vulnerabilities within digital infrastructures and underscores the urgent need for enhanced security measures to protect against such widespread cyber threats.This story was written by the talented Nathaniel Nelson and produced by the team at LimaCharlie.And a special thank you to John Hammond, Principal Security researcher at Huntress, for sharing his expertise and experienceIf you have any feedback or ideas for future topics or guests, please send an email to defenders@limacharlie.io.

“We can say that. Sure we can say that.”Oh, I do not like having to utter this phrase in meetings. Because it's not what you can say, it's what you should say.I've heard so many times ‘we can say that in an ad.' Or ‘we can write a press release about this.' Oh, the hubris in that statement.Because we get lulled into false confidence in the four walls of our offices, when we think we can make a payment, and put whatever we want into ads or press releases or on websites.Sure, I guess technically you can. You can write those words down. It's not illegal. No one will stop you. Media companies and ad networks will glad take your money for that placement. But should you?Because the ultimate decider is the customer. So no matter what you pay to say, no matter what you can say, the customer will decide whether you should say it. Which is why I loved this lesson from a podcast guest application – ‘Never underestimate the power of your customer.' It doesn't matter if you have a fancy title or massive media budget, the customer has far more power than you.I talked to Erika Lovegreen, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Communications, ICUC (https://icuc.social/) (a Dentsu agency), to hear that story behind that lesson, along with many more lesson-filled stories.ICUC is a Dentsu agency with a team of 450. Dentsu is a public company that reported 1.117 trillion yen in annual revenue in 2022, or about 8.59 billion dollars.Lovegreen managed a team of 30 when she ran the strategy team. Now, she runs marketing for ICUC and overseas a team of six, along with a variety of partners and contractors.Stories (with lessons) about what she made in marketingHere are some lessons from Lovegreen that emerged in our discussion.Be comfortable stepping into new industries to gain the necessary experienceIf leading a team, value being patient and hiring the right peopleNever underestimate the power of your customerYou need to quickly serve the customer to create a great experienceValue productivity over perfectionPay attention and look for trendsRelated content discussed in this episodeMeclabsAI.comArtificial Intelligence Demo: A look at the output from an AI-powered podcast assistant service (https://sherpablog.marketingsherpa.com/content-marketing-2/ai-demo/)Value Proposition: Marketing examples for each of the 4 essential levels of value prop (https://www.marketingsherpa.com/article/case-study/value-proposition-4-essential-levels-of-value-prop)Social Media Marketing: Can you compete with your customer's mom?

This episode aims to provide valuable insights for parents navigating the complexities of supporting gender-diverse children with the goal of exploring some critical considerations that can sometimes be difficult for parents to embrace. They caution against oversimplified narratives, especially for parents who may have adopted a singular explanation for their child's trans identity, and they stress the importance of broadening perspectives, encouraging parents to consider multiple angles, including family dynamics. While exploring these key ideas, Sasha & Stella underscore the need for a middle ground, where parents provide warmth, connection, and engagement while remaining cautious about external influences, reminding parents that solutions lie in embracing complexity rather than adopting extreme and narrow approaches. Excessive tech restrictions and controlling behavior without warmth can be counterproductive in dealing with ROGDBe flexible and open to embracing radical changes in parenting strategiesAvoid the assumption that sharing extensive medical information about gender dysphoria will necessarily be helpfulSeek a wider understanding, thoughtfully embrace the possibility it might not be ROGDParents cannot dictate or control the therapeutic decisions made by their child's therapistSeek and pursue a measured and supportive approach, be cautious about rushing or hastily implementing various interventions to “fix” the situationParents need to manage their own distress before attempting to effectively help their child, prioritizing self-care is a mustAvoid and recognize the unhelpful nature of engaging in confrontations (specifically online) with kids, detransitions, or activistsReassess roles and emotions when considering long-term transition strategies, reflecting on the possibility that (in some cases) transitioning may be a viable long-term experienceIf you liked this episode, more episodes you might find interesting:Episode 2 - Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoriahttps://gender-a-wider-lens.captivate.fm/episode/rapid-onset-gender-dysphoriaEpisode 4 - Why Do People Seek a New Identity?https://gender-a-wider-lens.captivate.fm/episode/why-do-people-seek-a-new-identity Episode 44 - Multiple Meanings of Gender Dysphoria: A Conversation with Aaron Terrell

My guest this month needs no introduction! Bari is one of the OGs in the financial wellness industry. Her book The Art of Money changed my life when I read it a few years ago. Back in the day, when all the info you would find on finances and money was written from a perspective of "do this, not that",  discipline and restriction-based, Bari was one of the first people to introduce money as a self-care practice. Her book offers such a beautiful standpoint on money, finances, and how it can how it blends in to help you create a life you love. In this episode, we dive into:- The genesis of Bari's very unique perspective on money management.- How your small, intangible, unquantifiable money wins that seem simple, like not freaking out when you are paying the bills, are as important as the tangible wins because one will lead to the other. - Why more money does NOT necessarily mean your financial anxiety will be gone, and why some of our clients might experience MORE anxiety when they start earning more. - How financial ups and downs are natural and even normal, and how expecting your finances or your net worth to keep going up, is unrealistic!  I hope you enjoy this interview! --------------------------------------------------Bari Tessler, M.A. is a Financial Therapist and Founder of The Art of Money, a year-long money school, and a Mentor program for therapists, coaches, and financial professionals.

Are you daydreaming about a life that you want for yourself, personally and professionally? What's been on your mind to try out? Is there something still nagging you that is asking for your attention?  If you are putting off exploring your dreams – why? The sooner you can explore the outlines of the possibilities for your dreams, the sooner you can get started on creating them.  In this podcast, I share my recent experiences, and a cautionary tale. Learn from me, take away what resonates, and I hope that it inspires you to take action.  In This Episode: Testing out my idea  What I Realized  The dream!  Learn from my experience  Testing out my idea   I had been mulling over the idea of taking my private practice out on the road and becoming a digital nomad counsellor for a couple of years.  And so, I finally decided to try it out!  ‘The first thing that I knew I needed to do was to travel a little bit and see if I could work in different places besides my mom's place in Ontario! … it was going to be a lovely trip of visiting friends and family in BC while working at the same time to see if I could do that.' – Julia Smith  I loved it! Mixing vacation time with work time made those weeks special, and helped to ground me in the days that I was working. I managed to find a rhythm, and I stuck to it, which allowed me to work during the week and relax on weekends.  What I Realized Of course, I learned a lot from this trip, and some of the things I came to know are crucial in deciding whether the digital nomad counsellor lifestyle is for me or not.  One important thing that I realized was that I missed my personal space. I sometimes struggled to sleep well or didn't have a lot of privacy, which could impact my work.  ‘It was still a little nerve-wracking and I was like, “Hmm, it would be nice to have my own space and be able to travel, too” … so, coming away from that trip, it was confirmed to me that I really love to travel and work … and that I also ideally would like my own space when I am travelling.' – Julia Smith   The dream!So, from what I learned from my travels, I decided to pursue the tiny-living van lifestyle, because it combines both my love and desire for travel with independent living.  However, I soon discovered that this dream would not be as possible as I had first imagined because of the financial aspect.  I knew I wanted to hire a professional to construct the van – as after building a fully operational virtual counselling and consulting business, I've done my building dues! – so I had a meeting with a van building company, and unfortunately, the prices were beyond my scope.  Learn from my experienceIf you have a dream that you want to do with your private practice or your life in general, it's a good idea to start looking into it now!  Time will pass either way, so the sooner you can take action to figure out what is truly possible with your time, money, and energy, the sooner you can get to working on your dreams and bringing them to fruition without too much redirection down the line.  Connect with me: Instagram Website  Resources Mentioned and Useful Links:  Ep 44:  Alison Pidgeon: Turn Your Passion into Another Business  Article: How to Set Up a Canadian Private Practice Website  Sign up for my free e-course on How to Start an Online Canadian Private Practice Listen to my episode with Jara Dekker about Being a Digital Nomad Therapist | EP 21 Listen to my episode with Tara Scullion about Canadian Private Practice Insurance | EP 30 Check out StarLink Rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, Amazon, and TuneIn

Anne Heaviside, a managing director and legal recruiter with ELR in Houston, joins us on today's show. Anne talks about the lateral legal market, work from home policies, and top tips for candidates. Her firm and roleELR Legal is in the Tanglewood area of HoustonSpecializes in 2-10 year lawyers in Texas law firms / mostly Houston / mostly Big Law (AmLaw 200)Got her start practicing law, including at McGlinchy Stafford. She then took over the recruiting role there before stepping out to work as a legal recruiter on the outsideLegal Market Update2019 was good as was the start of 2020COVID put everything on hold until about November 2020November things opened up, especially in the Big Law corporate world (Can you say SPACs?!)Capital MarketsM&APrivate EquityDebt Finance2021 only got hotterBig signing bonuses ($10k-$50k)There are not enough corporate associates in Texas for the demandThe need is new work. Clients have more demand from Big Law firms and there aren't enough 3-6 year associates with the necessary skills.Record number of lateral moves in Houston and DallasPlus new Big Law firms opening up in AustinSeptember hit and those associates have worked between 2000-2800 hours already in 2021 and are no longer taking recruiter calls; they are waiting for their year-end bonus before lateralling at the start of 2022.Real Estate an Executive Comp/Employee Benefits have gotten hotBig Law litigation is cool/slowLitigation boutiques are hiring but they are super picky (think Big Law requirements)Davis Polk raised the first year starting salaries from $190k to $205k and Cravath (the previous trend setter) matched (as have several others now).

Otherwise start with your law firm experience3-6 bullets under each position communicating exactly what you doYour role in what types of deals/casesYou can take out the bullets under internships or clerkships if you need spaceIf you have been practicing for at least 3+ years you need a deal sheetKnow as much about the job you are applying for as possible so you can tailor your experience to the needLitigators definitely need a writing sampleGPA on the resume if it was at least a 3.2 (Big Law still cares even for laterals)Big Law resumes don't need interest sections, but small law firms will often like to see itIf you do have it, make the interests unique, specificFinal ThoughtIf you are going to use a recruiter, look for those who have contacts at the firms you are interested inRecruiters can help navigate some tough conversations and issues that come up (conflicts, negotiating offers, etc.)Once your resume gets submitted to a firm (whether directly or through a recruiter), another recruiter won't be able to help you for at least 6-12 months at that firm. So be mindful.Pros/Cons about using one or multiple recruiters, but one tends to work better for the candidate.Candidates should give thought to whether they want to use a recruiter BEFORE they start doing anything in the process; this allows for any recruiter to best help you.Recruiters can give insight on comp, especially in smaller firms where there isn't a standard scaleRapid Fire QuestionsName one trait/characteristic employers most want to see in an associate: smartWhat habit has been key to your success: consistencyFavorite app/productivity tool: LinkedinWhat would be listed first on the interest line of your resume: Food blogging / foodieFavorite legal movie: Legally Blonde / PodcastThanks again to Anne Heaviside for joining us on today's show!

Using Custom Farming to Boost ProfitabilityThank you for listening to us.  We know that time is the most valuable resource and greatly appreciate you using your time to consume our content.Also, thank you for reviewing and sharing our podcast with your family, friends and neighbors.  That means the world to us.Online review: “What a great format you have put together for any business person inside or outside of agriculture to listen to and learn from!” Answer questionsHow can I boost my farm’s profitability through custom farming?We will attack this as our topic of discussion today.What’s working for Ag – listener or farmer feedbackMoville, Iowa  - Hungry Canyon - Cards and gifts for those who work in acres not in hoursMelissa Keyes Nelson  @MelNelKeyes  www.hungrycanyondesign.comOriginally from Nebraska and transplanted to NW Iowa where she lives with her Husband Mark and son Roy.  She started her Agriculture Educational Non-Profit.  She has a background of being creative and entrepreneurial spirit and is able to put a unique spin on everyday items.  Melissa takes pride in creating authentic and accurate agriculture-based cards, gifts, and home decor.  How did you decide to start this business to compliment your family farm?Valentines Day for her husbandDo you do all the creating yourself?The designs are made by Melissa and the products are made by a company that employs individuals with developmental disabilities.How does having this business help your family’s farm succeed?…What is the most difficult challenge about running an online retail business?…What advice would you have for the listener who is thinking about starting or expanding their online retail business?…What are you and your husband most proud of on your farm?…Please share any final comments and how our listeners can find you for questions or any interest in ordering your products. Thank you!Main Topic- How can custom farming work for your farm and increase farming profitability?Custom work as defined: Custom farming services means the performance of an activity, defined as farming in this section, for a farmer for a fee. The fee may include a cash payment, a share of the harvest or other valuable consideration.This means you could be using custom farming practices to benefit your farm in 2 different ways.  Either by performing the tasks for others or by hiring someone else to perform the task for you.You will need to step back and do a 360 review of your farming operation before making this decision.  As we said at the beginning of the podcast that we know time is the most valuable resource, so part of this review will be to consider:How much time do you have to devote to performing custom farming tasks?Do you have staff or employees that are under employed?Have you struggled to get a part of your farming done timely in the past?Do you know of others in the area expressing a need for tasks to be completed?Are you adequately equipped to perform more tasks, need to upgrade, need to buy?Is there a practice you want to learn, try, or improve but want to try before your buy?Once you do a 360 degree review of your farm as it is now you’ll be able to take the next steps necessary.Example:  My family used to be a farrow to finish hog farm.  My parents chose a time to expand their operation when I was a young child. They did a review similar to this knowing with a limited labor force they would need to incorporate some custom farming practices.  Because they believed the breeding and farrowing processes were the most important they elected to perform those tasks themselves and hired other farmers to nursery and finish part of the production for them.  They knew they didn’t have the time to do all the jobs well and this was the solution.This could be the same when you look at getting the crops in the ground this spring.  Possibly custom tillage or pre-emergent chemical application could be beneficial.Example: Another hog example, had a client include me on a decision/fact finding mission.  He has been taking care of ISO Wean pigs on a custom basis, sometimes getting double stocked at the beginning and other times not.  We calculated the extra time it took to carry in brooders and mats, sort out feeder pigs etc… and arrived at the determination he was more profitable in the process to take only feeder pigs with a $1.50/space pay cut.  He’s now going to make less gross revenue but net more income.Could custom farming be the entry door into upgrading a piece of equipment?Sprayer, manure equipment, high speed planter, feed wagon/truck, semi & trailerTarget enough work to make the payment or reduce the costs of the equipmentEntryway to a farm manager that gets access to more rented or crop share ground.How do you charge for custom work?Most farm managers who hire all processes custom will base the payment on ISU or another university survey and use the average or a multiple of the average rate.  Is this fair?  Too much competition?CalculationStarts with an equipment appraisal then continues with an appraisal annually to get a true depreciation value.  Target a market value and wholesale value. Salesman, auctioneer, appraiser.Overhead costs on a per acre basis:  Road time, RTK, Insurance, etc..Establish Tractor Value and establish the cost based on use (50% of planter and grain cart) and the cost of planter + wages/acre + fuel/acre + overhead expenses/acre Wages are different for each operator including yourself.Niche’High clearance spraying, cover crop seeding, silage chopping, baling, heavy haul equipment, excavator work, tiling, ISO WeansLocationHow far from your home base?  How far from your last customer?  How many acres?  Can you charge a premium?  Will it become a long term relationship?ExperienceIf you have been doing the same task since you just started farming…..don’t you think you deserve a raise for experience and efficiency?What could hiring custom operators do for you?Pre-emergence, fungicide, Y Drops, cover crops, lawn mowing, putting cows out to pasture, expanding livestock herds, baling waterways (50/50)Your farm gains: speed, efficiency, precision, focus, diversity, and profitEx: Hiring someone to help you combine beans when its fit to go rather than picking at high moisture yourselfIs it included in the price of the purchase: Spreading litter when bought, buying chemicals or fungicideMaybe someone is doing it for less that you could do it for by yourself???!!!Lastly, sometimes the best answer is to say “no"ChallengeDo that 360 degree review of your farm to see where custom work could be a fit.Then if you are performing custom farming tasks get down to the real costs involved in performing the task.  Your time isn’t free or worthless.Please remember to like, rate, review, and share the podcastSubmit questions and topic suggestions@farm4profitllcfarm4profitllc@gmail.comThank you

It’s about finding your way and acknowledging the gifts that everyone gives you. Essentially we are all spiritual energy.

Information products are dead. The road to riches depends on more than just simply creating a few videos and publishing them to an online learning system. Today's consumer is looking for more than just information. They are looking for an experience. They are seeking guidance and fulfilment.The writing is on the wall. 2015 saw the first negative growth in the online education market. US demand for information products and home study courses actually declined by 3%So why this decline in a seemingly booming market? After all, predictions were that the online course market was going to enjoy massive growth for the foreseeable future.What happened?Well, the decline could well have been driven by another shocking statistic…On average, 97% of people who buy information based products fail to complete the training and get results.The numbers speak for themselves…The majority of online courses are failing to deliver results and this is regardless of the quality of the information they contain.This, in turn, has led to a drop in prices.Also if you look at the amount of quality information that is freely available on the internet, the value of 'information' is actually $0.Universities are publishing their entire curriculums online for free, people can view hours upon hours of how-to information on YouTube and Google will present you with an answer to any question you enter into the search box.If information alone was all it took to change people's lives, we would all be living in Google-utopia, swimming in the data that over a billion websites have to share.So how are you and the transformation your courses provide going to stand out and shine above all the noise?What actually motivates people to make a change in their lives over the long term?People prefer to learn through fun and engaging experiences rather than consuming information.CLICK TO TWEETThe point is the majority of people struggle to implement information that they've watched or read.So in order to succeed as course creators, we have to design and deliver our material in ways that present our students with an enjoyable, engaging, fulfilling experience.Imagine if you could provide the same level of excitement and addiction to an outcome as the Pokémon Go app. Adults and children alike are totally absorbed by this app and happily spending a lot of money to pursue little virtual creatures around the neighbourhood.Seriously, what would you give for that level of engagement?What if you could apply the same psychology that totally captures people attention when it comes to movies and video games and apply it to your online courses?What would that mean to your course sales?What would that mean to your business?What would that mean to your lifestyle?We have to face facts. The 19th-century practice of dumping a whole heap of information in front of someone is neither practical nor ideal when it comes to long-term, transformational change.“When it comes to learning something new people don't want War and Peace, they want the cliff notes version. They want a game and a game they can win quickly.”You have to get people out of learning mode and into doing mode so that they can get results in…CLICK TO TWEETThere is another huge benefit: When you help to bring about change in someone's life, not only are they more likely to purchase from you again, they are also more willing to recommend your material to others, they will do your marketing for you!To help you understand what naturally motivates people to learn and how you can incorporate these key elements into your courses, Marisa has created the “Experience Formula”, which is ten very specific experiences that you can wrap your courses in, that work with peoples own internal motivation and commitment. So before they know it they're getting into action, they're getting results and they're gaining unstoppable momentum that allows them to get going, even when the going gets tough.So before they know it they're getting into action, they're getting results and they're gaining unstoppable momentum that allows them to get going, even when the going gets tough.One of the biggest principles that is often overlooked is having a super clear, focused mission that relates to what people want, that your whole course revolves around.One of the most powerful value levers of all product creation is goal achievement or project…CLICK TO TWEETSo you need to look at this from the outset when designing your material. What are you moving your students towards? What will they accomplish?When stating your mission there should be no doubt what the time frame is and what the student is going to achieve in that time frame.A fundamental design flaw in a lot of online courses is they are set up for this very broad, general 'how-to'.“You will get all the information you need to do ______________”But the material isn't clear, it's not structured around getting people to that result.When your mission is clear you can set up a game to include “positive experience escalation”.As your student goes through the process and has these positive experiences, they gain momentum.So instead of instantly bombarding your new student with information that does nothing other than result in overwhelm and confusion, you should look at 'chunking down' your information to set your students up for 'constant wins'.Giving people the chance to have a win right from the very beginning of their journey with you, even before they purchase your course is very important.How can you give them a win?Getting them to make a choice, check something off their to-do list, take an action that they are capable of performing, are all ways to set up these 'constant wins'. This gives the student the confidence that they have the ability to bring about the change they are seeking.The number one reason why people don't buy to begin with or don't complete a product once they buy is because they don't have confidence and belief that they can complete it.Setting your marketing and course materials up so that your students have a sense of accomplishment and success right from the start is an important factor not only for increased sales but also student retention and referrals.When you work with the psychology of winning and giving your students a sense of achievement through regular and constant positive experiences and constant wins, your students cannot help but feel good as they work through your course.Will This Approach Work In My Niche?The short answer is yes.No matter what business or industry you're in, there is one common dominator - people get caught up in endless process.So if you can break it down for them. Simplify it. Make it fun and keep them engaged through the use of the constant wins strategy then this will work no matter what you're teaching or who your audience is.Why Is Now The Time For Experience Products?We're seeing that more and more people are coming online every single year. More and more people are setting up their online stores and websites in order to tap into the ever-growing consumer demand.With around one billion websites already in existence and growing at a rate of 300 million new sites a year, it's becoming harder and harder to compete in a very noisy environment.The point is most people don't know about the 'Experience Product Phenomenon' so they are competing in a world where they are experiencing a decline in demand and falling prices but don't know why.Basically, if you try to create an information product now it's like trying to open a video store after Netflix was invented…it just doesn't work.But you have an opportunity today to get in on the ground floor of buying Netflix stock on day one.So as more and more course creators discover that the information product model just doesn't work they will come to learn about the experience product phenomenon and get onboard.Information products, in general, have a negative reputation in the industry for letting people down and experience products are the obvious alternative because -1. you are going to create products that are more relevant, and if you use the experience product model you are going to avoid creating a course that will have a hard time selling.2. you will be at the forefront of this major shift that is happeningCLICK HERE to find out more about the Experience Product Masterclass and access all the free training and resources…http://ecoursedomination.com/experienceIf you have a question about any aspect of online course delivery, from concept to market, please feel free to send me an email at AskTim@EcourseDomination.com.
