Nearly 800 Hungarian government passwords found in breach databases — including one from a colonel in charge of information security who used "FrankLampard". We break down how it happened, why it keeps happening, and what it means for anyone responsible for security culture at work.

Also this week: Rockstar Games hacked for the second time in three years through a third-party supplier. Basic-Fit gym breach exposes bank details of around one million members across Europe. Booking.com customers scammed using their own stolen reservation data before the company even told them about the breach.

On the news side: Microsoft's biggest ever Patch Tuesday with 165 fixes including an actively exploited SharePoint flaw, France ditching Windows across government, a UK energy company loses £700,000 in a payment redirection attack, Google cracking down on back button hijacking, and an emergency Adobe Acrobat patch for a flaw being quietly exploited since December.

Cybersecurity news explained in plain English. No jargon. Just the stories that matter and why they matter to real people.
