An interesting note in today's Daily Upside report on "Hard Times for Cyber Crimes". Bit by Bitcoin: Even still, the number of attacks continues to be on the rise. The number of ransomware strains in circulation boomed to over 10,000 in the first half of 2022, according to Fortinet research quoted by Chainalysis. And hackers are increasingly ditching the big-game hunting targets — such as major corporations, government networks, as well as hospitals and schools — in favor of often much more vulnerable small businesses. Remember: when the IT department’s 2FA mandates fail, there’s always the simple art of negotiation. You see the little section that says "vulnerable small businesses." That is why it is so important to use 2FA. You can read this post for more information.

3:45 am Airport Sitting at Gate 1 at @siouxfallsairport heading back to Atlanta. Pretty quiet here. I hope you have a fantastic Monday. I am looking at doing some planning on the flight. What’s on your list today?

Training and Breakfast (Feeling Spoiled) Doing some training through @businessmadesimple this morning. My son brought me an omelette. Yum! I am looking at what critical actions I need to do to move my business (and my clients business) forward. #business #businessgrowth #goals #habits #chaoswhisperer

A Moment in Time! This little lady and I enjoyed some grand time together this afternoon. Yesterday she was enchanted by the butterflies at the butterfly garden. Every moment is precious and she sure does adore her daddy. #granddaughter #grandma #butterflies #son #family

The Middle Child Syndrome Maple did some training today. She is the middle dog so bless her heart she does not always get THE attention. Bella is trained so well and a joy to run off leash. Miska is the baby and needs a lot of attention and training. Maple is a puller so I tend to put off walks and just run her outside in the fence. Today we hiked together and then did some “around”, “about”, “sit”, “wait”, and “heel”. She did a fabulous job. #australianshepherd #bordercollie #dog #ilovemydog #dogtraining #goodgirl
