His expert advice helps individuals, companies and conglomerates navigate their way through the world’s ever-changing technology and increasingly complex IT compliance laws. He often appears in the media and at coconferences world-wide to educate the public on cyber-security and digital privacy, a subject he is passionate about.

What some readers are saying about the book:

“For the tech-savvy, tech-challenged and everyone in between, Unplugged: A Luddites’ Guide to Cyber-security is an eye-opening introduction to the hidden dangers–and sometimes grave consequences—of uninhibited social media use and the disturbing lack of security pervasive in many of the modern technologies we use every day.”

“Unplugged: A Luddites’ Guide to Cyber-security is a tremendously informative read, with practical advice for navigating the pitfalls of the digital landscape, and for overcoming the obstacles that can make our lives less productive.”

“For anyone concerned for the security and well-being of themselves and their loved ones, Unplugged: A Luddites’ Guide to Cyber-security is a must-read.”

“I recently began to incorporate just a few of the principles and some of the practical advice offered in Unplugged: A Luddites’ Guide to Cyber-securityand have already begun to reap the benefits! Now, not only is my life much easier and more efficient, but I have more time and fewer headaches.”

“While growing up, I was taught that pointing out problems is of little value unless you can also provide solutions. In Unplugged: A Luddites’ Guide to Cyber-security, Raj Goel has revealed many of the potential dangers that can accompany the greater freedom and conveniences of technology, but, more importantly, he has also presented solutions and advice that will aid in avoiding those dangers.”
