Episode 40: Please Ask Permission Before Sharing with Dr. Maritza Johnson

Dr. Maritza Johnson, Security &amp; Privacy Researcher, is passionate about making security accessible in people's everyday lives and even teaches about the subject. She shares about how she fell for a phishing email in the grocery store. Then Maritza discusses how technology is evolving faster than people can change security behavior or modify settings, thus creating "a dumpster fire."
