Your infosec is only as strong as the weakest link in your social network.

This whole US govt. signal group chat - is the perfect example.

You should cognizant of malware and data sharing but the VAST majority of leaks and breeches come from human error - not genius hackers.

Yep, MANAGEMENT is ALWAYS the worst employee in any company! 🤦🏾‍♂️

Absolutely, the weakest link is often human behavior rather than technical vulnerabilities. While malware and sophisticated cyberattacks get a lot of attention, the majority of breaches come from simple mistakes like misdirected emails, weak passwords, or trusting the wrong person. Social engineering is the real hacker’s weapon, and it exploits our natural tendencies to trust or overlook small details. The US govt. signal group chat is a perfect case in point: an environment where trust is essential, but the risks of casual sharing can easily lead to unintended exposure. A strong security culture involves continuous vigilance, education, and a healthy skepticism of ‘trusted’ sources. It’s not just about locking down systems; it’s about empowering people to recognize the subtle risks in their daily interactions.
