• Imagine you are a CISO of a publically traded company and concerned about security when sending any message traffic over the Internet to your remote sites.

Teardrop – a mangled packet sent in fragments via overlapping or overloading payloads which could cause the systems as it has in the past with older OS versions.

Companies such as this are required not only legally, but ethically to protect the customers’ private information or be held accountable by law. It is also bad practice to allow this sensitive information to be disseminated and stolen by cyber criminals. Since this kind of data must be protected at all costs, certain regulations were put in place so that standards for information security could be monitored.

It is overall dangerous to talk on the phone, and or text while operating a motor
