A leading expert in cybersecurity explains the alarming spike in ransomware attacks — and what you should do to protect yourself

Welcome back to Inside the Village, a one-of-a-kind podcast where all news is local — and no topic is off-limits.Hackers appear as busy as ever these days, breaching the computer networks of some prominent organizations: Scouts Canada, the LCBO — even SickKids Hospital. In Sault Ste. Marie, a crippling case of ransomware forced a local school board to send kids home early for the Christmas holidays.

What's the driving the sudden surge? We ask Sai Huda, a best-selling author and founder of CyberCatch, a leading online security firm. Launched last year, Inside the Village is a news and current affairs podcast that provides a weekly window into some of the best local journalism from across Village Media's chain of Ontario newsrooms. The program also explores bigger-picture issues that impact people across the province.
