Staying Safe in a Digital World

On this episode of What Do You Know, we talk cybersecurity with Sherri Davidoff, founder of LMG Security, headquartered right here in Missoula, and co-host of the Cyberside Chats podcast. A nationally recognized cybersecurity expert, author and former hacker, Sherri shares her perspective on ransomware, scams, social engineering, data breaches and the growing threats facing individuals and businesses. She also offers practical advice—both personally and professionally—on how to stay safer online, emphasizing the importance of slowing down, paying attention and thinking twice before clicking a link or opening an email. As the mother of a 15-year-old, Sherri also brings a parent's perspective to helping kids navigate an increasingly connected world. A graduate of MIT, she is a Black Hat instructor, GIAC-certified forensic analyst and penetration tester, and author of three books, including Ransomware and Cyber Extortion and Data Breaches: Crisis and Opportunity. It’s a fascinating conversation about cybercrime, staying vigilant and what all of us can do to better protect ourselves in the digital age.
