In this episode of Cyber Security Today, host Jim Love covers several major cybersecurity incidents and vulnerabilities. Key stories include the compromise of Windows Defender and other Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems, a data breach on X (formerly known as Twitter) exposing over 200 million user records, and a security flaw in several UK-based dating apps that led to the exposure of approximately 1.5 million private images.
