Each week on this podcast, we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. Let’s start this episode with an apology to all of you who suffer from Triskaidekaphobia. That’s the fear of the number 13. That’s also why we think of Friday the 13th as a bad luck day. It’s a notion that goes all the way back to the Middle Ages in Europe. But we’re here today to talk about another long-followed practice: Don’t shoot the messenger. Follow on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/idtheftcenter/ Follow on X: twitter.com/IDTheftCenter
