The Internet is Infected! The Ultimate Cyber Security Guide for Small Business and Home Computing!

If you find the information on this blog valuable you will find my upcoming three volume cyber security books infinitely more so! Visit my website at http://thatcybersecurityguy.com. My 8 years of research and 900 written pages are about much more than just cyber security as my writing presents valuable small business and general home computer knowledge. Visit me on Twitter @ThatCyberSecGuy. See the ACLU video "Invasion of the Data Snatchers" at YouTube to understand why you need my books and PDF files on the infected Internet.

Golf course servers where I play were hit by Ransomware! Read my book!


Folks, years ago I wrote a unsuccessful book about Small Business and Home Cyber Security. I continue to be entertained by stories from people and Small Businesses that are continually victimized by cyber security criminals. Every time I hear about these incidents I always recommend you/they buy a copy of my 980 page book to which I get blank stares or ignored. I even offer my services.

This latest breech resulted in my golf course losing control of its client lists, handicaps, inventory and so on as they did not have a backup since 2018. They refused to PAY the ransomware which I respect but they lost everything.

The moral of this story is if you know nothing about Cyber Security and don’t want to read my book is at least keep maintained backups.

Veterans, like myself, want to end these senseless mass shootings!


 WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE AGAINST U.S. CORPORATIONS FOR NOT PROVIDING ARMED SECURITY TO RAPIDLY RESPOND TO DOMESTIC TERRORISTS!That is the question the drive by media and U.S. congress with their political agendas will never ask…

The question not being addressed by the drive by media is where is the security in light of all these mass shootings? The answer is U.S. corporations don’t want to provide it! In the wake of their MASSIVE profits why would they want to pay an unemployed veteran $100 a day to provide security for 1,000+ customers? It seems they would rather see 20 people die and 27 wounded while law enforcement takes 6 minutes, 6 MINUTES to respond!

Most of you have never been in a war or battle, and as such you don’t understand what 6 minutes means. Imagine that your enemy is heavily armed and loaded. Your enemy starts out lobbing in mortars from a distance, sending in machine gun fire, and eventually shooting small arms fire at you as they advance across your undefended defenses. This is possible because you can’t shoot back as happened in Lebanon.

From Wiki, “The attack killed 307 people: 241 U.S. and 58 French military personnel, six civilians, and two attackers.” In the attack on the American Marines barracks, the death toll was 241 American servicemen: 220 Marines, 18 Navy personnel and three Army soldiers, along with sixty Americans injured, representing the deadliest single-day death toll for the United States Marine Corps since the Battle of Iwo Jima of World War II, the deadliest single-day death toll. The sentries at the gate were operating under rules of engagement which made it very difficult to respond quickly to the truck. From wiki, “On the day of the bombing, the sentries were ordered to keep a loaded magazine inserted in their weapon, bolt closed, weapon on safe and no round in the chamber. Only one sentry, LCpl Eddie DiFranco, was able to chamber a round. However, by that time the truck was already crashing into the building's entryway.”

I met some of the marines returning who said they were limited to three rounds per magazine and the attack took place very rapidly. Now imagine Everyone in your unit has no ammo so while all this incoming fire goes on with soldiers screaming and dying, a few are running to the ammo supply to enable you to shoot back. I hope this helps you understand what 6 MINUTES is before you can load your weapon!

For now, arm someone with a squirt gun or a child’s toy and try to avoid getting wet or popped while running around the house for 6 minutes! There are only so many places to seek cover or hide. Your enemy will hunt you down and get you wet in that amount of time unless you are very, very lucky.

Been working on the new Florida house and a degraded RAID 5 computer

I have a failed drive in one of my RAID 1 home computer servers that I have been ignoring while working on my Florida house. Today I received a comment from the over 7000+ viewers of this blog so I decided it is time for a new blog entry after months of neglect.

I have investigated fixing the RAID but one problem I cannot figure out how to fix it without possibly destroying the computer. I recently took a Windows 7 system image (still provided by Windows 10) as to try and rebuild the RAID. However, work on the house and GOLF have gotten in the way of making the final jump into the unknown. I will keep you posted as things progress.
