Cyber threats are evolving beyond basic phishing into sophisticated, multi-stage attacks that exploit dark web leaks, social media footprints, and everyday online behaviors. This talk sheds light on emerging threats through real-world stories of individuals and organizations that have been targeted—some losing their identities, finances, and even jeopardizing their businesses. But the true cost of these threats goes far beyond financial loss. We will expose the devastating human toll—how cybercriminals exploit technology to facilitate human trafficking, ritual sacrifice, and the psychological manipulation that drives victims to suicide. From grey market companies to stalkerware and beyond, we’ll reveal how modern attacks unfold and why traditional defenses are no longer enough. By sharing these harrowing realities, we aim to raise awareness, challenge assumptions, and empower individuals and organizations to better protect themselves in an increasingly hostile digital landscape.

Digital Disaster Recovery: From Chaos to Control ECE-09
Founder & CEO
PJC Services
Threats in cyberspace have skyrocketed in recent years. Brute force attacks from automated hacking attempts, keyloggers, ransomware, viruses, malware, email phishing attempts and social engineering attacks are problems that today’s companies must fight back against. With so much corporate and personal information moving online and into the “cloud” there is a very real threat that our data can be stolen, exploited and leveraged against us. Best case, you recover. Worst case, you go out of business. The fact is that many businesses still do not have a comprehensive cybersecurity plan, and those responsible for business continuity and data security are stressed out, not sure how to start, what threats to look for, or how it will impact their business. Not only that, the risk of non-compliance for certain industries is a critical component to having a recovery plan. This session will provide business owners, data professionals, and entrepreneurs a proven 7-step formula for develop a cybersecurity incident response plan without getting stressed out or overwhelmed. They will know what information they will need, how to value assets and assess threats; how to react and recover from a cyberattack; and they will have a blueprint for creating their own cybersecurity plan.
