Thank you very much.
I'd just like to say that the fact that Mr. Genuis's personal email was compromised is horrible. It was because of his job as a parliamentarian, so I thought I'd offer some concrete advice to this committee that I hope will be helpful.
First, allocate a parliamentary budget for personal cybersecurity protection. I'll tell you how I protect myself. I'll bet you that I'm probably better positioned than everyone in this room, and I'm just some guy. I'm not in the public eye and I'm not being targeted the same way you are. I use an encrypted multi-hop VPN for my data. I use biometric and cryptographically locked password managers. Each of my passwords is over 20 characters long and reads like gobbledygook. If you tried to brute-force my passwords, you'd have to really, really want to. I use the most sophisticated malware protection on the commercial market. I use a hardware multi-factor authentication for my most sensitive accounts. If you wanted to hack me, it would require a state-level actor who really wanted to get in. Then, for my most sensitive stuff, you'd have to get the keys out of my pocket.
For all of that we're talking hundreds of dollars, not thousands of dollars. Let's allocate some budget for that. Let's make sure that members of Parliament can be part of their own defence. If they're going after your personal accounts, it's not because of your personality; it's because of your day job.
