Protect your digital identity against deepfakes, SIM swaps, and AI-driven fraud

Unbreakable: Secure Your Digital Life in a World Built to Breach Youis a practical, narrative-driven guide from Phillip Shoemaker, who built and led Apple's App Store review team before becoming CEO of PersonaShield. Drawing on decades of experience tracking threats from early App Store fraud to AI-enabled scams, Shoemaker treats identity, not passwords, as the primary attack surface.

The book blends real-world hack accounts and personal stories from Shoemaker's career at Apple with step-by-step defensive playbooks. Readers gain actionable techniques for reducing exposure to data brokers, preventing SIM-swap attacks, identifying synthetic identities, evaluating privacy policies, and navigating an internet designed to harvest personal information. Each chapter connects specific threat patterns to concrete countermeasures.

Readers will also find:

• Strategies for detecting and defending against AI-generated deepfakes that target both personal and professional communications channels
• Practical step-by-step methods for removing personal information from data broker databases and systematically reducing your digital footprint online
• Guidance on evaluating Terms of Service and privacy policies to identify hidden data-sharing practices and minimize risk
• Techniques for securing mobile platforms against SIM-swap attacks, account takeovers, credential theft, and social engineering schemes
• A framework for building decentralized digital identity practices that reduce reliance on centralized systems vulnerable to large-scale breaches

Written for technology professionals, executives, startup founders, cybersecurity practitioners, policymakers, and everyday consumers, Unbreakable provides a structured approach to safeguarding digital identity against deepfakes, data breaches, SIM swaps, and AI-driven fraud, grounded in how attackers actually exploit modern systems.
