🚨 Mythbuster Monday 🚨

"We have antivirus, so we're protected."
I hear this from business owners every week. And every week, it's wrong.

Antivirus catches files with known fingerprints. But almost nothing about modern attacks looks like a file:

→ Phishing emails that steal Microsoft 365 passwords (no file)
→ Fake invoices that trick bookkeepers into wiring money (no file)
→ Ransomware operators logging in with stolen credentials and using your own admin tools against you (no file)
→ Fileless malware running entirely in memory (literally no file to scan)

If your security stack stops at antivirus, you're using a screen door.

In this week's Mythbuster Monday, I break down what's actually getting past traditional AV in 2026, what the modern protection stack looks like, and why your cyber insurance carrier already knows the difference.
