Cynthia Johnston (H R Block)

"The knowledge I learn every time I sit in on these webinars if fabulous. In todays world of hacking I will be sharing all that I learned today with my co-workers as well as my clients. Thank you. I just came from a conference that we had the IRS talking about the same password changing, not use words from the dictionary, better to change pass words several times than to deal with having your information stolen and then you have months of trying to get your life back."

Kimberly, TX

"Bryan, thank you for pointing out the issues with the Alliance.com versus AIIiance.com...not even certain if I can tell the difference while I'm typing this..it is so slight...and also reviewing the possibility that companies using prototype letters like the Capital One slide could inadvertently be "training us" to accept Phishing due to the use of all CAPS, and the sense of urgency...Again these are reasons we should have semi-regular training with updated forms of "sneaky.""

Kathy, LA
