In this episode of the Defensive Security Podcast, we discuss the anticipated rise of Mac malware, the economic implications of new top-level domains (TLDs) for phishing, innovative phishing techniques using corrupt documents, and the risks associated with open-source software. We also explore the concept of risk homeostasis in cybersecurity, examining how users’ perceptions of security can influence their behavior and risk-taking. The conversation emphasizes the importance of education, robust security measures, and the need for a deeper understanding of complex systems in the face of evolving threats.
