In episode 38 of the Cyber5, we are joined by Director at Nisos Seth Arthur. Seth discusses digital identity reduction, a methodology for removing online personally identifiable information (PII).
Outline
We start by discussing what "doxxing" means and how serious enterprise takes such threats, particularly when executives are identified by malicious actors. Analyzing the threat, reviewing the digital footprint, and attributing the actor(s) are common work flows for digital executive protection. (01:00-04:12)
We then get into a discussion of how PII proliferates online and what can be done to reduce online footprints every six to twelve months. (04:13-08:24)
Finally, when a threat becomes probable to someone's physical security and they want to take action against a threat such as filing a restraining order, we discuss steps Nisos takes in online attribution (08:24-11:13)
