Vincent Romney is a cybersecurity executive with a slightly unhealthy obsession for solving hard problems, aligning strategy with execution, and calling out tech buzzword bingo when I see it. His journey started in the mid-90s founding a software dev firm, which ran parallel to a 23-year career in the U.S. Air Force (where he bounced between IT, InfoSec, and Cyber Warfare), and has since spanned telecom, retail, defense, and now the wellness industry -- because attackers don't care what you sell, just how you secure it. Currently serving as Deputy CISO and Enterprise Security Architect at Nu Skin Enterprises, he leads global security strategy, architecture, and AI risk management efforts across a multinational footprint. Certifications include CISSP, CCSP, CSSLP (\"I guess I'm collecting all the merit badges now,\" says Vince), and he recently wrapped up his term as President of the ISC2 Utah Chapter. Vincent is deeply interested in the evolving role of AI and blockchain in the security ecosystem, and he spends a fair amount of time helping organizations understand where these tools belong -- and more importantly, where they don't.

Welcome to the Cyber Sh*tshow

Perhaps that's a bit crass... but it's spot on. Cybercrime isn't new—it just finally got profitable enough to be everyone's full-time job. Including yours.

The idea of \"computer crime\" used to be a little more... quaint. Like the â€˜80s hacker equivalent of keying someone's car. Now? It's big business and you are the product.

And guess what?

You probably suck at cybersecurity.

And that's why this book is for you:

The Individual trying not to get wrecked by a fake Microsoft support popup.

The Side-Hustler running their growing empire from a Gmail account and a Square reader.

The Mid-Cap Boss who just realized their \"security guy\" is also their head of marketing, HR, and ordering bagels.

The Enterprise Executive who thinks having a CISO means they're covered. (Spoiler: you're not.)

Vincent Romney has spent more than two decades fighting on the front lines of cybersecurity—across battlefields, corporate boardrooms, and break rooms. With over 22 years of combined Active-Duty, Reserve, and Air National Guard service in Information Systems, Information Operations, and Cyber Warfare, he's seen the cyber fight from both the military and civilian sides—and spoiler: it's a mess on both fronts.

This book is the answer he wishes he'd had to hand to family, friends, side-hustlers, small business owners, and even the C-Suite when they said, \"What do I really need to know about security?\"
