Growing Interest with Mary Holland NaderShow Notes
We spend a lot of time talking about how to build wealth. But how do you protect it? This week, Mary sits down with Caitlin Sarian, better known as Cybersecurity Girl, to find out what hackers and scammers know about us that we don’t, and the everyday habits that could be making our money easier to steal.
After nearly a decade working behind the scenes in cybersecurity, including leading Global Cybersecurity Advocacy and Culture at TikTok, Caitlin has seen how people actually get hacked, what makes someone an easy target, and why the stereotype that scams only happen to older people could be making the rest of us more vulnerable.
Caitlin breaks down:
- the money scams she’s seeing right now
- the “harmless” online behaviors hackers love
- whether it’s safe to give AI your financial information
Plus, she gives Mary Holland her 60-second cybersecurity checklist and reveals the changes she’s made in her own life after spending years around some of the smartest hackers in the world.
