That’s what we’re diving into today in our exploration of the fascinating yet terrifying world of SIM Swaps and cryptocurrency security. We’ll shed light on a real-life cautionary tale of a victim who lost his cryptocurrency to these cunning cyber con artists and the ingenious way they laundered the stolen funds. Discover why you should never use your phone numbers for authentication and what you can do to protect yourself. 

As we journey further, we’ll unravel the complex web of crypto regulations and vendor risk management. With the SEC guidelines causing confusion, we’ll debate the need for a more regulated crypto environment. Learn about the critical process of vendor vetting in industries dealing with confidential data.
