Have you ever opened your computer and realized important files were suddenly gone?

You’re not alone — and in many cases, it’s not a hack or a cyberattack. It’s a misunderstanding of how OneDrive syncing actually works.

In this episode of The Pulse On Cyber, we break down a real-world scenario involving a small business owner who accidentally lost files after deleting them from OneDrive — not realizing those files were still synced to her computer. We explain why this happens, how OneDrive is designed to work, and what you can do right now to protect your data from accidental loss.

We also clearly separate accidental deletions from real security threats, helping you understand when data loss is caused by user actions versus when security settings actually matter.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How OneDrive syncing works — and why deleting a file can remove it everywhere
• The difference between cloud storage and true backups
• How to prevent accidental file deletions before they happen
• Why external backups are still essential, even when using the cloud
• Simple security steps to protect your OneDrive account from unauthorized access

This episode is perfect for:

• Small business owners
• Remote workers
• Families and everyday computer users
• Anyone who relies on OneDrive for important files

If you’ve ever worried about losing your data — or already experienced it — this episode will give you clarity, not confusion.

One-time passcodes are designed to protect your accounts—but what happens when scammers turn them into the attack itself?

In this episode of The Silent Heist on Pulse On Cyber, we take a deep dive into one-time passcode (OTP) scams—an increasingly common and highly effective form of cybercrime that has cost victims hundreds of millions of dollars worldwide.

You’ll learn how attackers gather phone numbers, impersonate trusted institutions, and use urgency and pressure to trick people into revealing real verification codes in real time. Once that code is shared, attackers can bypass multi-factor authentication, take over accounts, steal money, and compromise personal data—often in minutes.

In this episode, we cover:

• What one-time passcodes are and why they’re targeted
• How OTP scams work step by step
• Why even security-aware users fall for them
• Practical ways to protect yourself and your accounts

The key takeaway is simple: one-time passcodes only work if you keep them private. By understanding how these scams operate and knowing what red flags to watch for, you can avoid becoming part of the statistics.
