Welcome to Hacked dAily, the FIRST AI-Driven Cybersecurity Podcast by Cytadel Cyber, where seriousness is served with a side of sarcasm and a dash of technological terror.
First up, we lament the mysterious allure of "vaporware" on Google Play, where 300 sneaky apps decided they’d make your phone their new Airbnb. Android users, maybe think twice before you swipe right on that flashy app.
Next, we delve into the cutting-edge capers of RansomHub, a tailor-made backdoor bringing the Olympian spirit to ransomware escapades. Our cyber sleuths are working overtime, probably pondering if they'll ever see a normal workweek again.
Over in the UK, 422 not-so-masterminds have been escorted off stage in a grand fraud-busting performance. It seems the curtain has fallen on their ill-gotten gains, and those "Get Out of Jail Free" cards are just collecting dust.
In Mississippi, Yazoo Valley Electric Power Association wishes they could CTRL+Z their way out of a six-month delayed ransomware disclosure—now starring in a cyber lawsuit thriller. Spoiler: their customers are not amused.
Lastly, we're shaking our heads at cybercriminals who’ve turned AI into their sidekick, creating digital mayhem. Surely, they could've used that ingenuity to, I don't know, volunteer for habitat restoration or something.
Tune in again tomorrow to Hacked dAily, where tech troubles meet their match with a chuckle (and maybe a groan).This episode is sponsored by Cytadel Cyber. Specialist in Ransomware Readiness Assessments, Threat Intel-Led Red Teaming, AI DeepFakes, AI Voice Cloning and AI Vishing Simulations.
