Show Notes
This episode uncovers the "perfect storm" of cyber risks facing cannabis operators, from the regulatory "cashless ATM" crackdowns to the sophisticated phishing campaigns responsible for nearly 9 out of 10 industry breaches. We analyze high-profile incidents like the Stiiizy data exposure to show how third-party vendor vulnerabilities can cascade through POS and seed-to-sale systems, putting customer data and state licenses at risk. Finally, we outline essential "defense-in-depth" strategies, such as separating operational technology from corporate networks and implementing phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication, to build a cyber-resilient business.
