Hello and I trust this email finds you well.

The topic in this Cyber Byte includes a terminology you might not be familiar with but certainly for some cyber criminals, it’s a term and action they use regularly. 

The term is “Doxxing” and refers to the non-consensual publishing of personal details such as full name, home address, phone number, workplace, financial information, or private contact details. The defining feature is non‑consensual exposure - that the victim did not agree to the sharing of the information, and the disclosure is intended to cause harm.

Within the Cyber Byte there is a link to a full explanation of “Doxxing” along with actions you can take to better protect yourself from such an act.

As usual, please feel free to share with family, friends and work colleagues.

Best regards,

Gordy.
