Cybercriminals aren’t just gunning for corporate giants anymore – they’re after your life in digital form. Your entire presence

online is under siege, and if you’re not protecting it, you’re practically handing over the keys to your virtual kingdom.

Smartphones, social media accounts, online banking, smart home devices – are conveniences that form a digital map of our

lives. And cybercriminals exploit this map to hijack identities, steal funds, and track our every digital move.

Cybercrime isn’t just rising – it’s exploding. According to cybersecurity experts at AAG,

a jaw-dropping 53 million Americans fell victim to cybercrime in the first half of 2022 alone.

That number is only getting higher with “losses exceeding $16 billion –

a 33% increase in losses from 2023,” the FBI reports.

The bureau’s Internet Crime Report explains that the top three cybercrimes reported by victims in 2024, “were

phishing/spoofing, extortion, and personal data breaches. Victims of investment fraud, specifically those involving

cryptocurrency, reported the most losses – totaling over $6.5 billion.”
