Send us Fan MailThis month a data breach at Anchorage Neighborhood Health Center allegedly exposed 60,000 patient records to hackers (ANHC has approximately 15,000 patients). Today on the show we talk about that case specifically, but also Alaska’s cybersecurity more generally.

We discuss his early life as well his path to IT and Alaska, but we also offer specific actions that Alaskans can take to make themselves more cybersecure. Leon Jaimes is the chair of the House District 20 Democrats and is the treasurer of the Anchorage Democrats.Check to see if your email address has been part of a data breach here at "Have I been Pwned?"
