On this episode - BofC Live features a conversation with Loïc Calvez, the Co-Founder + CEO of ALCiT speaking about how email is a near perfect vector for malware and viruses to enter your personal and professional IT systems. Calvez wrote, "Is Email Really that Dangerous?" this week for Business of Cannabis.
To understand the risk and why some of the protections methods from before are no longer effective, it is important to understand what has changed with malware (a.k.a. viruses, trojan, ransomware, adware, rootkits…) in the last couple of years. Malware used to be simpler, they had a specific binary signature that would be injected in a file and you could look for it (scan) and discover hidden malware to deal with it before you got infected. You had a “virus scanner” that would get updated regularly, would check all new and old files and keep you safe.
