Nineteen years ago: I am deployed to South Korea with the United States Marine Corps for a training mission. Ths mission took me through various 'locales' within the country. The entire time- a briefcase is handcuffed to my wrist. This was my first real 'wake up call' if you will to the importance of information security. A few months later I find myself in the same type of scenario, only with even greater need for security within the combat theater of Desert Storm. Since those experiences, I have been ever conscious of that importance of securing private and non-public information.
Jump to present day, and here I am organizing the National Law Enforcement Identity Theft Summit to bring together as many law enforcement agencies and investigators as possible to increase the awareness, education, and preparedness of cities and towns throughout the United States.
The title of this blog indicates the posts that you will be able to find here. We will cover where Identity Theft was with the briefcase handcuffed to my wrist to the complexity of scams, scripts, and social engineering tactics being employed presently.. and moving forward.
