What We Can Learn From Linus Youtuber Hack

There are lessons we can all learn from the unfortunate recent session token attack on youtuber Linus Tech Tips. Hack occurred last week to the excellent popular channels owned by Linus Media, Linus Tech Tips, TechLinked and Techquickie. Sebastian Linus, creator, and head of Linus Media, addressed the occurrence himself in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGXaAWbzl5A and we discussed lessons we can all learn from it. 

We are fans of the shows and feel they handled the whole event well and even came out and discussed it, pointing out improvements likely needed from platforms as well as being accountable explaining  lessons they learned.

Topics: lessons learned Linus tech hack, lessons learned from Linus tech hack, hacking social media influencer, How security awareness training lowers risk of breach, what are the dangers of session hijacking, when social media influencer gets hacked, newest session cookie attacks, new session hijacking attacks, session cookie attacks, and understanding the dangers of session hijacking.

Importance of security awareness training and endpoint detection and response are addressed and how they potentially could have aided in this instance.
