Show Summary: In this episode of the Grow My Accounting Practice podcast, Jeremiah Baker—author of Confessions of a Hacker—reveals how he spent the last 17 years ethically hacking into companies’ networks and web applications to identify vulnerabilities before cybercriminals do. He discusses the most common and damaging cyberattacks targeting individuals and businesses today, from phishing schemes to ransomware, and explains how these threats can cause significant financial and reputational harm if left unaddressed.

Jeremiah also outlines practical steps that anyone can take to strengthen their cyber defenses, including recognizing suspicious emails, implementing multi-factor authentication, and updating systems and software regularly. Whether you’re part of a larger firm or a solo practitioner, you’ll learn why proactive cybersecurity is essential for protecting sensitive data, maintaining trust, and staying ahead of rapidly evolving threats.
