I was told posting consecutively for 200 days is not going to be easy and I almost backed out. In a couple of weeks, we'd have spent 200 days this year already. I didn't start back then but I am starting now! This is Day 1/200 days of show up challenge with @gabbytech01. 1/2

Day 114 of #200daysofcybersecurity If you've been following me for past 3 weeks, you'd know I've talked about avoiding random links and not clicking on any. Well, what happens if you eventually click one by mistake? Here's what you should do next, depending on what happened 1/3
Day 113 of #200daysofcybersecurity. You can recognise someone's voice and still be dealing with a scammer. Voice cloning uses AI to imitate someone's voice, while deepfakes can make it look like someone said or did something they never actually did. This makes impersonation 1/2

1. Entered your password? Change it immediately from a trusted device. 2. Shared banking details or an OTP? Contact your bank immediately. 3. Downloaded or opened a file? Don't ignore it. Run a security scan and seek help if you suspect malware. 2/3

4. Using a work device or account? Notify your IT or security team immediately, even if you're unsure whether anything happened Remember, clicking a link doesn't automatically mean you've been compromised. What matters is what happens after you click ncsc.gov.uk/section/respond-… 3/3

Does analytical thinking come with talking to yourself and gesticulating too? 😭 Or am I doing the wrong thing?🥲

You clicked a suspicious link and maybe entered your password before realising something was wrong. What should you do next? It's Day 27 of cybersecurity awareness with @CyberRealm_HQ. First, don't panic. - If you've entered your password, change it immediately using the official website or app. # - If you downloaded something suspicious, disconnect your device from the network if appropriate and seek help from your IT or security team. - Report the incident, preserve the suspicious message or other evidence, and monitor affected accounts for unusual activity. - If you shared banking details or money is involved, contact your bank immediately. - If you suspect malware or can't secure the device yourself, get professional assistance. And please, don't keep quiet because you're embarrassed. Reporting quickly can help prevent further damage.

You clicked something you shouldn't have. Don't panic, because mistakes happen and speed matters. Disconnect, change your passwords, report it, keep the evidence and watch your accounts. Early reporting stops the damage spreading. Day 27, #CyberAwarenessMonth

On Friday, the CyberRealm HQ team took cybersecurity awareness to a school. We talked about passwords, scams and staying safe online with the students. Awareness starts early. Thank you to everyone who made it happen!! #CyberAwarenessMonth @ireteeh @cyberjeremiah

AI can now create deepfake videos and clone voices that sound like real people. Scammers can use these tools to impersonate family members, colleagues or even company executives. It's Day 26 of cybersecurity awareness with @CyberRealm_HQ. That video might look like your friend, or that voice might sound exactly like your mum, but it might not really be them. Someone could call you claiming to be a relative in an emergency, asking you to send money urgently. Another person might use a fake video or voice recording to make a request seem genuine. So, how do you protect yourself? - Verify unexpected requests through a different, trusted channel. - Agree on a family safe word for emergencies that is hard to guess and keep private. - Never send money just because a familiar voice asks you to. Confirm first. - Don't rely on a voice or video alone as proof of someone's identity. Hearing someone's voice or seeing their face is no longer enough to guarantee it's really them. See you tomorrow. ❤️

Day 112 of #200daysofcybersecurity When we talk about cybersecurity, we think of passwords, networks and hackers. But what happens before someone even gets to a computer? A stolen work laptop could expose confidential files or saved accounts. A lost flash drive could put 1/2

harder to spot, especially when the message sounds convincing or comes from someone you know. If a call or video comes with an urgent request for money or sensitive information, take a moment to verify it through another channel. Familiarity isn't proof of identity. 2/2

“AI is going to take your job” Now AI is creating job avenues for people which of it are you looking into? Which is why I’m using my experience in AI assessment and audit to introduce a bit of it to our next year Grc training. Expand your career capacity and build careers in places where you’ll get better opportunities and pay. 🥂

Mentee Spotlight @__Zaayn_ ✨ Joining the mentorship programme changed how Bolu approached her job search. She received practical coaching on how to approach interviews, communicate her experience, and present herself effectively. She applied what she learned in her subsequent interviews, went into them with a new level of confidence and preparation, and secured a job after the next few interviews she attended. The programme also helped Bolu grow beyond the technical side of cybersecurity. The public-speaking sessions strengthened her communication skills, while the presentations and project defenses improved her ability to clearly explain ideas and present her work. One of her most valuable experiences was being appointed Co-lead for a cross-domain joint project. The experience strengthened her leadership and collaboration skills while broadening her understanding of the different areas that make up the cybersecurity landscape. By the end of the programme, Bolu had become more effective in her work, more comfortable collaborating with teammates, and more knowledgeable about cybersecurity beyond her immediate area of expertise. Her standout moments were the public-speaking sessions, debates, and the projects she worked on. Each experience challenged her in a different way and contributed to her growth both professionally and personally. Overall, the mentorship programme gave Bolu practical experiences and skills that she continues to apply in her career. I am proud of you Bolu 💪

Day 26 — Deepfakes Are Here AI-cloned voices. Fake video calls. "Urgent emergency" calls that sound exactly like someone you know. Verification technique: call back on a known number. Ask something only they'd know. @CyberRealm_HQ @ireteeh

A voice message from Mum on a new number, asking for money right now. Is it really her? AI can clone a voice from a few seconds of audio. Hang up, call back on a number you already have, and agree a family code word. How would you verify it? Day 26, #CyberAwarenessMonth @ireteeh
