Welcome to Hacked dAily, the FIRST AI-Driven Cybersecurity Podcast from Cytadel Cyber, where we unravel the tangled web of digital mayhem with a side of sass and sarcasm. In today's episode, we're kicking things off with Microsoft uncovering a new plot twist in hackerland—tax-themed emails weaponized with malware courtesy of your not-so-friendly neighborhood cyber tricksters. It’s like tax season and Halloween had an illegitimate love child.
Next up, Google’s Quick Share briefly moonlighted as a clandestine operative, transferring files sans consent. Who knew your phone aspired to be 007? Thankfully, Google shut this feature down quicker than you can say "privacy invasion."
Speaking of digital drama, word on the digital street is there's a new RAT in town—SnowDog RAT, to be exact. And guess what? It's more expensive than your last-minute vacation splurge, yet infinitely less relaxing.
In other news, RansomHub hackers target the systems of a Minnesota tribal community, spreading chaos like a low-budget cyber-thriller. And, today’s final act: IT’s grappling with a robotic identity crisis, as AI reshapes their roles—though our silicon overlords still can't steal the spotlight at water cooler banter.
So tune in, laugh a little, and because honestly, staying one step ahead of hackers is way more fun when you've got a smile on your face.This episode is sponsored by Cytadel Cyber.
