Listen Later

In this episode of Cybersecurity Today, host Jim Love covers a range of recent cybersecurity incidents. A major privacy failure has hit Elon Musk's Grok chatbot, exposing over 370,000 private conversations with sensitive information. Microsoft's recent security update has caused SSD and HDD failures, complicating data recovery. Hackers have exploited Microsoft's own login infrastructure to create phishing traps, making it difficult for users to spot fake login pages. The leader of the Wrapper Bot DDoS gang has been arrested following a detailed investigation. Finally, a hacker group claims to have 15.8 million PayPal credentials, although these claims are disputed by PayPal and security researchers. Jim also invites listeners to share their thoughts and comments through various contact methods.
