Do you wish to be a target? No, no one does. However, in this electronic ‘brave new world’ (with apologies to Aldous Huxley), we have transitioned from hunter to hunted. Also, with computers playing a dominant role in everyday life, the entire world is now on realtime, living in a world of websites, passwords and smartphones.
With the acceptance of our electronic world, there is now the expectation that we can enjoy the use of our electronic devices. But wait! Hold it a minute! We have to remember that we also carry along with us the baggage of progress – electronic thieves and pickpockets, and their tools – including the Dark Web. This is not to mention the unethical individuals and organizations that have mushroomed. To use an old school comparison, the unprincipled and unethical are “as thick as thieves” in our present world.
The ubiquitous use of electronics to organize and simplify our lives has demanded that our electronic technical age develop a new genre of “fix-it ” professionals. Our CelebrityExperts® and authors in this book are ‘ the handymen’ (technical men and women) of the future. Fixing a wagon wheel in the ‘old wild west ’ was one thing, but in the present computer age, our new generation of “ fixer uppers” – talented technical people –fix, maintain and protect our complex electronic devices and systems.
The authors in this book are at the forefront of our protective wall. You will read how they effectively combat the sleazy elements of humanity that are determined to steal our data, dollars and domains. They are our cybersecurity force of the future!

How better to describe an easy cybercrime target than a Sitting Duck? Sitting Ducks have been vulnerable prey from time immemorial. Cybercriminals, like most criminals, will first zero in on the easiest targets – Sitting Ducks.
Alongside the exponential growth of the World Wide Web, there is a parallel cyberworld, sinister in nature, sometimes called the Dark Web, fostered and operated by cybercriminals that act like highwaymen of old who rely on shock and disruption to gain their own ends. To counter these cybercriminals, the Celebrity Experts® in this book work to secure their clients’ systems and data. With added government regulations for compliance and privacy, these specialists are often called upon to train employees to meet strict regulatory compliance standards.
Unfortunately, cybercrime is not localized. Hacking into computers is a worldwide practice. It disrupts our businesses and social systems, and often demands ransom payments in Bitcoin (or similar cybercurrency) that is virtually untraceable. The Celebrity Experts® in this book are consulted and retained to ensure our businesses and organizations don’t become a Sitting Duck for cybercriminals. They can protect us, our businesses and our organizations from devastating financial and social consequences that cybercriminals cause. ... And they give you peace of mind!

With the advent of the Electronic Age, science and communication have attained previously unheard of levels of proficiency, precision and profitability. These advances have produced knowledge and learning that have changed the lives of everyone. In this respect, the computer and its sibling, thecellphone, have proved to be two of the most significant tools ever invented. Along with the progress in information and communication in this Electronic Age, a dark and ominous cloud closely follows. This is the DarkWeb. The Dark Web supports a fringe economy of cybercrime operating under the radar, allowing common criminals to enjoy a rewarding life of crime at their victim's expense. Both governments and businesses that do not recognize and mitigate the resulting cyberthreat, step carelessly On Thin Ice. This is the environment in which the cybersecurity experts in this book live and excel. Businesses and governments urgently require safeguards and processes to protect their data from cybercrime. These include maintenance, protection and storage of data (e.g., the government-regulated HIPAA and the NIST programs). To help you understand the dangers of cybercrime, the cybersecurity experts in this book will guide and save you countless hours of anxiety, research, and dire financial consequences. They reveal crucial steps that guide, protect and save any organization from the increasingly common cyberattacks being seen today. ... The alternative is to step gingerly On Thin Ice.
