New to the Street’s most recent “Sekur Privacy & Sekur Security – The Weekly Hack” segment between TV host and multi-media journalist Ana Berry and internationally acclaimed internet privacy expert and Sekur Private Data (CSE: SKUR) (OTCQB: SWISF) (FRA: GDT0) CEO Alain Ghiai discusses the recent data breach of Mr. Cooper, one of the largest mortgage lenders (https://nnw.fm/AmiS3).
Mr. Cooper, a Texas based company in the mortgage services industry, reported a breach in stolen data involving approximately 15 million customers – including names, addresses, social security numbers, account numbers, date of birth, and phone numbers. The mortgage lender sent letters to customers offering free monitoring services to help notify clients if someone is using their stolen data in the future (https://nnw.fm/wfXd3).
Mr. Ghiai, CEO of Sekur, believes the breach occurred from an email account within Mr. Cooper. He said 91% of cyber issues stem from emails, especially those on Big Tech platforms. Many large corporations use Big Tech platforms for their IT needs, with limited countermeasure cybersecurity features.
To avoid cyberhackers’ attempts at breaching data, Sekur, a cybersecurity and internet privacy provider of Swiss-hosted solutions for secure and private communications, makes it possible to send information through the most secure methods possible with a Sekur subscription. SekurMail(R), with SekurSend/SekurReply options, sends a link to a recipient to open an email in a closed-loop encrypted military platform. The service protects both subscriber and recipient, even if the recipient is not a Sekur subscriber.
Paired with the company’s SekurVPN(R), subscribers gain an additional layer of encryption that protects the IP addresses and website traffic information. SekurVPN creates a secure, encrypted connection between client’s devices and the internet, giving safe access to the web by routing connections through the company’s wholly-owned Swiss servers. All data sent and received is hidden from prying eyes, including the client’s Internet Service Provider (“ISP”), potential hackers, government surveillance agencies, and more.
Sekur also offers SekurMessenger(R), a Swiss-hosted private and secure private chat, self-deleting chat, voice recording, and file transfer via any mobile device, tablet, or desktop computer. The app is designed to provide military-grade encryption and privacy by ensuring that only the sender and intended recipient can read the messages exchanged.
Sekur’s servers are wholly owned, and the company never sells data, never uses phone numbers, has no third-party cloud applications, and never tracks web traffic. All user data is protected by the Swiss Federal Data Protection Act and the Swiss Federal Data Protection Ordinance, which offers some of the strongest privacy protection in the world for both individuals and organizations.
Monthly subscription amounts range from $12-$20, with business customers having slightly higher pricing due to business email domain migration. Mr. Ghiai offers New to the Street viewers a 15% discount on all Sekur services for up to five years with PROMO CODE: PRIVACY.
