Creator of the Daily Success Media Network featuring Women Innovators Radio Optimal Health Radio, Author Interview and Thought Leaders Show. Tamara Patzer personal story about getting hacked and how Darren Coleman helped her understand the dangers we all face related to our computer use. 

"As a small business owner, I found out that I was the perfect target for cybercriminals when I read certified IT professional Darren Coleman’s book, Easy Prey: How to Protect Your Business from Data Breach, Cybercrime, & Employee Fraud. It inspired me to arm myself with some common sense and the realization that I am responsible for my viral life just as I am for my real life.

One of the things I learned from Coleman is that I truly am a sitting duck or easy prey when I become complacent just because I never had an issue with cybercrime, hacking or employee fraud. Until I did.

I am just like many small business leaders. “It won’t happen to me,” I thought. “Why would a hacker hit me? I don’t have anything they would want.” I was not prepared, and I did not have a disaster recovery plan in place because I thought my hosting company was protecting me. They weren’t.

Navigating through all the changes in technology and business is overwhelming, but the reality is most of our business exists in digital formats: Software, applications and data make up most of our daily workload and interactions with our clients. The reality is that we rely on computers and the internet just to get our work done, remain competitive and stay profitable.

In many cases, technology can make or break your business. When your phone doesn’t work, you can’t get connected to clients and serve them. If your email goes down, you can’t communicate quickly. If your website goes down, boom -- people can’t check you out. To protect against data loss, you should have a back up of everything on your computer, including the software, applications and data saved to a place that is off-site and in multiple locations.

Darren Coleman Hits Amazon Best-Seller List With Easy Prey! Cybersecurity expert, author, and entrepreneur Darren Coleman recently hit two Amazon.com best-seller lists with the new book, Easy Prey!

Langley, British Columbia – September 30, 2016 – Darren Coleman has joined a select group of Cybersecurity experts from around the world, to co-write the book titled, Easy Prey: How to Protect Your Business from Data Breach, Cybercrime, & Employee Fraud. The book was published by TechnologyPress and released on August 18, 2016.

On the day of release, Easy Prey reached best-seller status in three Amazon.com categories – reaching as high as #1 in the category “Computers & Technology,” #3 in the “Computer Viruses” category, and #5 in the “Security & Encryption” category. Darren contributed a chapter titled “Small Business: A Cybercriminal’s Easiest Prey.”

TechnologyPress describes the book:

The term Easy Prey aptly describes those businesses exposed to the illegal, immoral and illicit industry known as Cybercrime. Unsuspecting and often unwary businesses and their personnel are often taken in as “easy prey” by cybergangsters. Cybercrime, which replaced cybervandalism, is growing quickly and more sophisticated daily. To counter the threats of cybercrime, the Celebrity Experts® in this book lead the way to secure their clients’ systems and data from vicious cyberattacks. With added government regulations for compliance and privacy, these experts are called upon to train and protect their clients from the online bandits that frequent the Internet, as well as to meet regulatory compliance standards. The need to secure business cyber-systems and to train personnel in cyber-security has become critical. Businesses of every size can no longer assume their computer operations are safe. Professionals – like the Celebrity Experts® in this book – are called in to ensure they don’t become Easy Prey for the cybercriminals, thereby protecting them from the unimaginable social and financial consequences they can bring.

After such a successful release, Coleman will be recognized by The National Academy of Best-Selling Authors™, an organization that honors authors from many of the leading independent best-seller lists.
