Could your business survive one bad click?On this episode of the Digital Mayor’s Podcast, Dan and Michael sit down with Erick Solms, entrepreneur, cybersecurity expert, and founder of Simplify, to talk about the threats business owners may not realize are sitting right in front of them. And according to Erick, one of the biggest cybersecurity risks isn’t the technology—it’s the people using it. An employee clicking the wrong link, ignoring a security warning, or falling for an increasingly convincing AI-powered scam can potentially expose an entire company. Erick breaks down cybersecurity without all the technical jargon, including why employee training matters, the importance of cyber liability insurance, how AI is making phishing attacks more convincing, why MFA is worth the inconvenience, and the three things he believes business owners should do right now: train their people, establish an AI policy, and audit old employees and vendors who may still have access to company systems. But this episode goes far beyond cybersecurity. Erick shares his journey from growing up in Ecuador and coming to the U.S. as an international student to building his own company. He talks about entrepreneurship, the lessons he learned from his mother, building a team and company culture, community involvement, and even the day the FBI, SEC and Department of Justice showed up at his office because of one of his clients. It’s a conversation about protecting what you’ve built, learning as you grow, taking care of your people, and understanding how quickly technology—and the risks that come with it—are changing.#DigitalMayorsPodcast #ErickSolms #Cybersecurity #CyberSecurityTips #ArtificialIntelligence #AI #SmallBusiness #BusinessOwners #Entrepreneurship #SouthFlorida #DataSecurity #Leadership
