A Fun Fact To Share

Interesting Facts

  • Cowboys often wore hats with wide brims to protect their faces from the sun, but the hat's creases also served a purpose - they could be flattened to use as a makeshift bowl for eating or drinking.


  • The term "cowboy" was originally used in the American West to describe someone who was irresponsible or not to be trusted. It wasn't until the late 19th century that the term began to be associated with cattle herders.


  • Cowboys did not typically wear spurs while working with cattle, as the jingling sound would startle the animals. Spurs were reserved for special occasions or when riding in competitions.


Interesting Facts

  • Cheese actually pairs better with white wine than red wine, as the acidity in white wine complements the creaminess of cheese.


  • The tradition of pairing wine and cheese together dates all the way back to ancient Greece, when they were commonly served together during religious ceremonies.


  • Some cheeses, such as Roquefort and Stilton, are actually considered to be protected by law in their countries of origin, much like Champagne in France.


Weekly Cyber Security Updates

Business Email Compromise (BEC) is a sophisticated scam that targets businesses and organizations by tricking employees into transferring funds or sensitive data to fraudsters using social engineering techniques.

These attacks typically start with compromising an email account of a high-level executive or trusted vendor to send fraudulent emails to employees responsible for payments.

BEC attacks have caused over $1.8 billion in losses in 2020, a 5% increase from the previous year.

To combat BEC attacks, organizations should implement multi-factor authentication, email filtering, security training for employees, and email encryption solutions.

By combining these measures, organizations can reduce their risk of falling victim to BEC attacks.
