Welcome to Hacked dAily, the first AI-driven cybersecurity podcast brought to you by Cytadel Cyber, unraveling the latest in cyber threats and defenses! In today's episode, we dive into the emergence of PUMAKIT, a new Linux rootkit employing advanced stealth techniques to outsmart existing security measures. Discover how this malware is making waves in the cybersecurity landscape and why experts are on high alert.
We also examine the warning from security analysts about an increase in zero-day exploits targeting Cleo Managed File Transfer systems. With potential risks to data integrity and confidentiality, we discuss the urgent need for enhanced defense strategies and patch management for organizations using Cleo’s solutions.
In another critical update, our focus shifts to the vulnerabilities in Prometheus. Over 330,000 instances of this open-source monitoring platform are at risk due to default security settings, leaving systems exposed to denial-of-service attacks. Learn why it's essential to implement stringent security practices now.
Elsewhere, we reflect on the infamous WannaCry ransomware attack, a stark reminder of the disruptive power of cyber threats and the importance of robust cybersecurity measures.
Finally, we explore the collaborative world of open-source generative AI security tools. By embracing community-driven innovation, these tools promise to fortify defenses against AI-generated threats.
