The heist that Gonzalez did was crazy! 90 million credit cards! I'm sure he thought he was invincible at the time. There are so many businesses that aren't security minded and are easy targets. Unfortunately, these small businesses could easily be shut down. I find it very interesting that this didn't make headlines and that they try to keep things like this under wrap.

Multiple exploits on day to day technology can lead to a huge heist that was pulled off by the criminal but what we forget is that as the crimes are getting sophisticated we as law enforcement or investigators also need to step-up our game so as to fight against such criminals. We need to educate people on how to use technology wisely so that it can help us avoid sharing out personal details to anyone over the internet or even phone call.

Gonzalez was smart. Unfortunately not that smart to know you do not go in the bank and withdraw the money yourself. But it is not good that the government is purposely not telling it citizens how unsafe our financial institutions are with our money.

The video goes to show just how vulnerable smartphones can be to cyber-attacks. Considering most people take their phones with them almost everywhere, the potential for espionage and financial damage is very serious. However, the user can prevent some mobile device attacks by simply being cautious about what they download. Some install apps without reading the permissions cautiously. A lot of attacks on mobile devices recently have been due to users installing specific apps via unofficial streams, specifically jailbreaking.
