LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — Concerns over national security are mounting following the escalation of attacks in the Middle East, with a particular focus on cybersecurity and potential breaches that could impact the United States.
Dr. Mack Jackson, a cybersecurity expert, discussed the potential threats and measures that individuals and businesses can take to protect themselves.
“A cyberattack against our country today could target critical infrastructure, financial systems, or personal data,” said Dr. Jackson. He emphasized the importance of vigilance and proactive measures to safeguard communication devices.
Dr. Jackson also highlighted why Las Vegas could be a unique target for a retaliatory cyberattack. “Las Vegas is a hub for tourism and entertainment, making it a high-profile target,” he said. The city’s reliance on technology and digital systems increases its vulnerability to cyber threats.
As tensions continue to rise, cybersecurity remains a critical component of national security, with experts urging both individuals and businesses to remain alert and prepared.
