FBI Cyber Expert Saves Your Business - M.K. Palmore
Descripción del Episodio
Most people think cybersecurity is complicated. MK Palmore disagrees. With 32 years in the federal government, two decades as an FBI special agent, and executive roles at both Google Cloud and Palo Alto Networks, MK has seen every angle of the threat landscape, and his message is simple: the basics will save you.
Charles and MK go deep on what everyday consumers and small business owners are getting dangerously wrong about their digital security, why a data breach can be the last thing a company ever survives, and how the adversary is quite literally banking on your laziness. MK also gets candid about the tools he personally trusts, the privacy myths that need to die, and why doing a few simple things consistently beats any fancy security stack money can buy.
Whether you're a solo entrepreneur or running a growing team, this episode is a wake-up call you didn't know you needed, and a practical roadmap to making yourself a much harder target.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Why multi-factor authentication is still the most underused line of defense for consumers and businesses alike
- How a single data breach can financially and reputationally destroy a small business overnight
- The truth about privacy tools, what's worth your time, and what's just noise
- Why consistency, not complexity, is the real foundation of digital security
- The devices and platforms a former FBI cyber executive actually uses to protect his own data

Blunt Force Trauma
By shows
Blunt Force Trauma is a new serialised investigation into the unsolved murder of Faithe Ely, from EchoSpace and host Troy Taylor (from award winning podcast Among The Missing). On March 28, 2021, Faith Ely was found lifeless on the side of a dark Oklahoma highway, her death quickly being ruled a hit and run. But the evidence doesn’t line up.
