Ergo, Ireland's largest indigenous IT solutions provider, has announced the launch of its new Cyber Resilience and Cyber Recovery Service offering to coincide with World Backup Day. Ergo's offering is a robust end-to-end solution designed to safeguard organisations against cyber threats and ensure rapid recovery in the event of a cybersecurity incident. The growth of Ireland's digital economy has created both significant opportunities and challenges for businesses across all sectors. Approximately 41% of goods and services produced in Ireland are now transacted digitally, including both digitally ordered and digitally delivered products. As a result, cyber threats pose serious risks not only to individual businesses but also to the broader economy. Cyber threats are constantly evolving and becoming more sophisticated, and ransomware attacks globally and in Ireland, are on the rise, with global security spending expected to grow by 12.2% year-on-year in 2025. If an organisation's backup solution is not immutable, it can be entirely compromised by cyber-attack, making an organisation not only vulnerable to losing business critical data but also negatively impacting its bottom line due to unplanned downtime, reputational damage and potential regulatory penalties. Figures from Ireland's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) show more than 5,000 cyberattacks were reported by companies in Ireland in 2023 with an unknown quantity of unreported attacks. Regulatory pressure in the form of NIS2, DORA, CER, PART-IS, have also forced organisations across most sectors, to have cyber resilience policies and protections in place. In today's world, businesses must be more resilient and prepared for the potential risks and threats inherent with digital platforms. Ergo's new offering, available in Ireland and Northern Ireland, leverages the latest technologies and best practices to provide an end-to-end approach to cyber resilience, from backup management and rigorous testing to 24/7 monitoring and incident response. In the event of an incident, Ergo's Cyber Resilience and Cyber Recovery Service offering, ensures that businesses can recover efficiently and effectively. Commenting on the launch, Lorne Chedzey, CIO at Ergo said: "With the increasing prevalence of cyber threats, it's no longer a question of if, but when, a business will need to recover from an incident. We've seen an uptick in the number of attacks targeting organisations of all sizes, which show no signs of slowing down, and if we follow the trends, are only going to get worse. "With scores of Irish organisations reporting significant instances of cyberattacks as reported by the NCSC each year, something needs to change. "Our new Cyber Resilience and Cyber Recovery Service Offering is designed to provide peace of mind, ensuring our clients are prepared for whatever comes their way. World Backup Day is a timely reminder of the importance of both data protection and robust cyber resilience."

I've spent countless hours uncovering Ponzi schemes and helping victims understand the true nature of these scams. My goal has always been to empower people, helping them avoid losing their hard-earned money. However, my recent experience with an individual I'll call Ethan Graves (a pseudonym) and his associate, representing companies based in Austria and elsewhere, opened my eyes to a concerning aspect of the recovery services industry. This is my account, my observations, and my opinion, shared to provide cautionary insight to others.The Podcast That Raised Red FlagsEthan Graves and I recorded the podcast in one of the meeting rooms at the Global Financial Crime Summit 2024. The discussion centered on the event itself—how insightful the sessions were, the innovative strategies shared by experts, and the importance of global collaboration in fighting financial crime. Ethan brought a cameraman to document the podcast, which seemed like a straightforward way to capture and share the moment.After the podcast, Ethan posted photos and videos on social media, including images of himself standing at a podium with the summit's signage prominently displayed in the background. To someone unfamiliar with the situation, these posts might give the impression that Ethan was closely affiliated with the summit or had an official role as a delegate or speaker. In reality, Ethan's only connection to the event was being invited to record the podcast in the venue.While the posts didn't explicitly claim he was part of the summit, in my opinion, the way they were presented could mislead people into believing Ethan was more involved than he actually was. At first, I thought little of it, assuming Ethan was simply proud of being associated with such an important event. However, things began to shift after the podcast aired.A week after I returned home, I started receiving emails from people who had seen the podcast. Many of these messages were supportive, but a significant number raised serious concerns about Ethan. Several individuals claimed he was a scammer, warning me to be cautious. Others shared documents that painted a troubling picture of his professional activities.These emails stopped me in my tracks. Until then, I had seen Ethan as a fellow advocate for scam victims—someone committed to helping those who had been defrauded. But the allegations and evidence I was receiving suggested a different story.The documents I received included:Contracts and agreements related to recovery services that raised questions about transparency and fairness.Complaints from individuals who claimed they had paid fees upfront but had seen no progress or results.Information suggesting that Ethan's professional partner and their organization were more focused on collecting fees than on delivering real outcomes.What had started as an impromptu podcast to highlight the value of the summit quickly backfired on Ethan. Instead of boosting his credibility, it prompted people to come forward with concerns and evidence that cast doubt on his intentions.Returning Home: The Proposal That Changed EverythingShortly after I returned to New Zealand, Ethan reached out with a proposal that changed my perspective entirely. He explained that he had been discussing with his professional partner at their organisation the idea of pursuing a recovery initiative for victims of Ponzi schemes, particularly HyperVerse. They wanted me to direct victims to their services and, in return, offered to pay me a flat-rate feeBuy Me a Coffee I'm on @buymeacoffee.

Paul Haley's journey is one of transformation, resilience, and purpose. Once caught in the grips of heroin and crack cocaine addiction, Paul reached a devastating rock bottom - an injecting injury that nearly cost him his arm. Faced with the harsh reality of where his addiction had taken him, he made the life-altering decision to turn things around.With sheer determination, Paul rebuilt his life, channelling the same relentless drive that once fuelled his addiction into something positive. He pursued education, found purpose in helping others, and ultimately carved out a career in the very system that once supported his recovery. Now, with nearly two decades of sobriety, Paul serves as Change Grow Live's National Service User Involvement Lead, using his lived experience to challenge stigma, empower service users, and advocate for meaningful change in drug and alcohol treatment services.Paul's story is not just about overcoming addiction - it's about proving that recovery is more than just abstinence. It's about rediscovering identity, reshaping perceptions, and demonstrating that those with lived experience are not defined by their past but by the strength they show in rebuilding their future.Click here to text our host, Matt, directly!Believe in People explores addiction, recovery and stigma.
