Love your delivery!

It is obvious that the person reporting has worked in this field. As he is reporting, the way the story is delivered is told in the exact manner that someone who as seen the ridiculous Cyber hygiene of some of these companies that should know better it perfect. You can often hear the smile on his face. I cannot tell you how much this resonates with me as a person that has screamed the importance of some of these routine and minor prevention methods that could stop these attacks.
