My opinion is mixed. On one hand, cyber security is leagues ahead of the 90s. OTOH, while the common threats has been dialed in, the consequences of a major strike are far more dire. Didn’t state that well, know what I mean?
Anyway, as a sysadmin, this shit has kept me up a night. I mean that most literally. Falling asleep, “Shit! I don’t have that covered!”
You’re looking at it from a business perspective which is valid but the resources available to the average person to prevent and / or mitigate a realm threat are virtually nonexistent.
Up until now it’s made no sense to target Joe Schmoe or his neighbours what happens when a state sponsored threat actor decides to burn it all down, or someone decides to start targeting the average person rn Massé with malicious ai?
It’s not a big deal on a case by case basis but almost no cybersecurity company will help out an individual unless they’re rich, the police are brain dead.
