Protecting your Accounts: "The first thing we have to do is we have to kind of narrow our scope a little bit... You probably wanna pick the key 5 that would have the most impact on you or your business if they were compromised. So for me, that would be my email account. Email account is number 1 because that is pretty much the gateway to all of my other accounts. Probably my core business tools, like my payroll, my banking. I probably wanna care about those."
