There you are, trying to improve your personal cybersecurity, so you finally decide to install anti-virus software, and you become infected with a virus. Improbable? No, not in today's confused cyberworld. See this: "
Google says Chinese hackers who targeted Biden campaign are faking McAfee software."
Guess what? I had gotten a McAfee ad sent to me via email the other day. Shield's up — attacks are coming from all directions.
Which reminds me of a French general's quote from World War I: "I am surrounded on all sides. Situation excellent, I am attacking!" The power of positive thinking and the best defense is an offense.
