How to build a LinkedIn following without being cringy: CFO Peer Audit

This audio is auto-generated. Please let us know if you have feedback. LinkedIn has become a common place for CFOs to share perspectives, stay visible and engage with peers across the finance community. As more executives use the platform, questions remain about how to show up in a way that feels credible and useful without slipping into cringe territory.  For this edition of the Peer Audit series, we asked CFOs: How can you build a strong presence on LinkedIn without being cringy? Hugo Doetsch, CFO, AuditBoard (management and compliance software)  Hugo Doetsch Permission granted by AuditBoard “I look at LinkedIn two ways. First, it’s the network. I don’t even take business cards anymore. It’s just, ‘Let’s connect on LinkedIn.’ It’s where I create, grow and manage my professional relationships. The second part is brand, whether that’s awareness for your company or equity for you as an individual. I’m not a big social media person. I’m not on Instagram or Facebook, but I am on LinkedIn. As an executive, you’ve got to have a profile there. In some ways, it’s like being a professional athlete. You have to make sure your image, your reputation and your results are spot on. LinkedIn is

From Ransomware to Residency: The Rise of the Digital Parasite – LinkedIn

For years, ransomware encryption was the clearest signal of a serious cyberattack. Systems locked. Operations stopped. The damage was impossible to ignore. But what if the most dangerous attacks today are the ones that never announce themselves? Analysis from Picus Labs’ Red Report 2026 , based on more than 1.1 million malicious files and 15.5 million adversarial actions observed throughout 2025 , points to a clear shift. Attackers are no longer optimizing for disruption. They are optimizing for residency . Rather than breaking in loudly and burning systems down, modern adversaries aim to remain inside environments quietly, feeding on credentials, trusted services, and identity infrastructure for as long as possible. Increasingly, they behave less like smash-and-grab criminals and more like digital parasites . The Ransomware Signal Is Fading Ransomware is not disappearing, but its role is changing. In 2025, Data Encrypted for Impact (T1486) declined by 38 percent year over year , dropping from 21.00 percent to 12.94 percent. This is not a loss of attacker capability. It is a strategic decision. Instead of triggering an immediate response through encryption, attackers now prefer to: Quietly exfiltrate sensitive data Harvest credentials and access tokens Maintain persistent access without disrupting operations Apply

Why journalists are turning to LinkedIn for reporting and audience growth

 JournalismPakistan.com |  Published: 10 February 2026 |  JP Special Report Join our WhatsApp channel Journalists are increasingly using LinkedIn to publish reporting, analysis and source queries that reach executives, policymakers and subject experts, while also monitoring early corporate statements. It helps sourcing and professional engagement. ISLAMABAD — LinkedIn, long regarded as a professional networking site, is increasingly being used by journalists as a platform for reporting and audience engagement. According to LinkedIn’s publicly reported figures, the platform has expanded beyond recruitment and corporate updates into a space where industry leaders, policymakers, executives, and subject experts share real-time insights. Newsrooms and individual reporters have begun publishing original posts, analysis threads, and direct-source queries on LinkedIn to reach decision-makers and professional communities. Unlike platforms primarily driven by entertainment or rapid-fire commentary, LinkedIn’s user base tends to engage with business, policy, technology, and media-related content in a more structured and professional context. A shift toward professional audience engagement Journalists covering beats such as business, technology, media, finance, and climate are finding LinkedIn particularly useful for identifying sources and monitoring corporate announcements. Executives often publish statements directly on LinkedIn, sometimes before issuing formal press releases, making the platform a primary source of newsworthy material.

Trump administration appeals ruling on releasing New York City tunnel funds – LinkedIn

☀️ Good morning from The Legal File! Here is the rundown of today's top legal news: 📝 Trump administration appeals ruling on releasing New York City tunnel funds REUTERS/Kylie Cooper U.S. President Donald Trump's administration on February 8 appealed against a decision requiring the Transportation Department to unfreeze federal funding for the $16 billion Hudson Tunnel Project in New York, according to a court filing. U.S. District Judge Jeannette Vargas on February 6 issued a preliminary injunction that requires the federal government to release funds for a project to overhaul critical rail infrastructure in New York and New Jersey. The Trump administration filed a notice of appeal on February 8. The Transportation Department said in September that it froze the funding pending a review of the project's compliance with new federal prohibitions against race- and sex-based considerations in contracting decisions. Trump offered last month to unfreeze the funds, a source said, in return for support from Democrats to rename Washington Dulles Airport and New York's Penn Station after him. Democrats strongly criticized the offer. The Gateway Project is intended to build a new commuter rail tunnel between Manhattan and New Jersey and repair a century-old tunnel used by more than

Tech job bait in India, personal referrals in Kenya: LinkedIn scammers prey on the unemployed

This article was originally published in Rest of World, which covers technology’s impact outside the West. LinkedIn job scams have become a borderless epidemic, preying on the hopes of desperate job seekers and costing victims across the globe anywhere from a few hundred dollars to $25,000. While the Microsoft-owned professional networking platform connects millions of users to opportunities, it also serves as a shared hunting ground for fraudsters. From Nairobi and Lagos to Mumbai and Mexico City, a review of the fraudulent schemes reveals a crucial layer often missed: Scammers are masterfully tailoring their tactics to specific cultural expectations, industry trends, and economic pressures. In India, tech jobs are used as bait because the industry employs millions of people and offers high-paying roles. In Kenya, the recruitment industry is largely unorganised, so scamsters leverage fake personal referrals. In Mexico, bad actors capitalise on the informal nature of the job economy by advertising fake formal roles that carry a promise of security. In Nigeria, scamsters often manage to get LinkedIn users to share their login credentials with the lure of paid work, preying on their desperation amid an especially acute unemployment crisis. In its transparency report for July-December 2024, LinkedIn said

A ‘quiet revolution’: Why young people are ditching social media – CNBC

A young woman wearing headphones browses vintage vinyl records in a store. Mihailomilovanovic | E+ | Getty Images Account manager Matt Richards, 23, deleted all his social media apps from his phone last year, and was surprised to find that his life changed for the better. Richards had been using a smartphone since he was 11 years old and grew up with the device like most Gen Z and millennials. However, in the past few years, he noticed social media didn't feel as fun anymore with artificial-intelligence slop dominating his feed, influencers advertising brands, and constant lifestyle comparison. "I think people back then used to take a break from the real world by going on their phone, but now people are taking a break from their phone to spend time in the real world," Richards told CNBC Make It. As many of his Gen Z friends also caught on, he noticed instant benefits, from connecting with people in real life to feeling more confident about himself. Going chronically offline is the latest trend to grip young people, and ironically it's going viral on social media. There's been a surge of TikTok videos of people vowing to delete social media apps
