In this CyberGuardians episode, host Marcello dives into the chaos surrounding reports of a massive Google Gmail breach. Were millions of passwords really exposed—or was it just a viral rumor gone wild? We break down what sparked the panic, how Google officially responded, and what this means for your digital security. Learn how misinformation spreads faster than malware, and what steps you should take to verify breach claims before you freak out.

In this episode of CyberGuardians, Marcellus breaks down the Trusted Platform Module, or TPM — the small but critical component that keeps your system secure from the ground up. Learn how TPM protects your device during boot-up, why Windows 11 requires it, how it ties into your BIOS, and even why modern games like Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 now rely on it. Whether it’s a physical chip or a firmware feature in your CPU, this episode explains how TPM builds the foundation of trust in modern computing.

In this Cyber Forecast, Marcellus takes a closer look at recent spikes in DDoS activity, focusing on Brazil’s sudden surge of network traffic seen on global threat maps.
