\n<\/b>While most of us are focused on summer plans, cybercriminals are focused on something else: unprotected data. According to multiple breach reports released this spring, 2025 is shaping up to be another record-breaking year for cybercrime.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why your old electronics are still a risk:<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Retired Devices Still Hold Data<\/b>
    \n<\/b>Laptops, phones, backup drives\u2014if they\u2019ve ever stored sensitive info, they\u2019re still a threat. Simply tossing them in a drawer doesn\u2019t erase liability.<\/span><\/li>\n
