  • The Security box, podcast 205: Magniber
    Welcome to the security box, program number 205. Which Ransomware gang is now responsible for deploying ransomware that actually disables security programs? Which types of security programs are affected? Which major company which was talked about last podcast confirmed that there was a breach that occured and when did it occur? Which car company is recalling cars that have not been serviced for a 9 year old problem? Finally, for those who haven't participated in the discussion, do you share your location or accounts with your spouse or partner?
    This week's topic talks about something we may have talked about called Magniber. We hope you enjoy the program, thanks so much for listening!
    Magniber back in the news
    Magniber is back, old decryptors don’t work is the blog post that people can read. It leads to this article titled Magniber ransomware targets home users.
    This article leads to another article from Bleeping computer, so there's no need for us to link to it.
    We also talk about the reorganization of 6 different items. But wait, we even talk about our guide we wrote on how to check links if the malicious things you get are by links. Getting Link information via access technology is the link. Please utalize it!

  • The Security box, podcast 204 for August 14, 2024
    Welcome to the security box, podcast 204. What big story is coming out about a company who has apparently gained access to tons of data illegally? The names, potential relative information, possible address information and social security numbers may be affected.
    Our topic today talks about how IT workers are getting hit with a new ransomware strain called Rino.
    All of this as well as the news, notes, questions and comments from any participents that may come in.
    The next possible biggest breach
    There's a lot of conflicting information, especially when it comes to which particular group supposedly hacked the company to begin with.
    This particular incident reminds me of the OPM breach of 2018. search the blog for opm breach
    Here are our blog posts which talk about the subject as of writing these notes. There's still a lot for us to learn.
    • We’ve got more on this NPD databreach was written on august 11, 2024 and it links to a Bleeping Computer article. There are a lot of questions here including the exact number of people and the fact that there are conflicts within the data that was seen by the publication.
    • 2.9 billion users, National public data gained data illegally is the blog post that links to the hackread article that Kim Komando linked to within her newsletter. This one talks about a lawsuit and that lawsuit deals with the fact that this company got the info illegally and orders the court to delete the illegal data. We highlighted this article on the Throwback Saturday Night program for August 10th. The RSS for that show is on this link.
      • What is Sharp Rino?
      Ransomware gangs target IT workers with sharp rino malware is the blog post which leads to today's discussion from Bleeping Computer titled Ransomware gang targets IT workers with new SharpRhino malware which should be a very interesting discussion.

    • The Security box, podcast 203: Data breach victims up 1k percent thanks to a study
      What is the number of percentage points that we recently saw when it came to our data being pilfered as victims go? What email seems to be making a comeback that we've not seen in a number of years, yet a customer of mine has gotten two of them within days of each other? What might be the subject matter of these emails and what are they trying to get this customer to do? Hint, its something we talked about probably in 2018 when The Mix and the JRN got these types of emails.
      Besides all of these questions, we're going to cover the landscape and some of what we've blogged or spotted in the news.
      We hope that you enjoy the program, and thanks for listening!
      What percentage of victims are up when it comes to Data Breaches?
      We blogged our thoughts on this topic, as well as linked to the original Article thanks to MalwareBytes.
      The number is staggering, although it would be a lot less percentage wise except for a couple of breaches as part of a Q2 report.
      If you guessed close to 500 percent, you're not far off, that number is only there at 490% without the breaches at Snowflake and other companies. The correct answer is 1,000% and we played the article as part of Saturday's Throwback Saturday Night program. Here is the link to their RSS.

    • The security box, podcast 202: the CFAA, revisited

      On podcast 202 of the Security box, we revisit a topic that we think isn't doing any good today. That is, the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. We take from Wikipedia's article discussing it, and we discuss whether its worth having it or doing something else.


      We also covered the news and the landscape, and yes, we had people out and about this week. We push on.


      Enjoy the program and thanks for listening!

      Hello folks, welcome to the security box. There might be a light news week this week, but we do have now a topic which came out of something read over the weekend. Traffic lights on the Internet. We'll cover what news and notes we have, then dive right in to our topic and answer anything people have.
      Traffic lights
      Hackers could create traffic jams thanks to flaw in traffic light controller, researcher says is the article, we're taking from and it was read this weekend that passed.
      This is one of those theoretical things, and one that could be out there. The researchers were slapped with a legal threat with one company, was that right or wrong?

      • The Security box, podcast 197 intermediate a: The Language of the Business
        Welcome to podcast 197, intermediate A. J Wolfgang Goerlich is along with a very interesting talk. While I've not listened to it in full, I did think of putting this out as it talks about risk. Maybe its a risk you don't know much about, so let's learn together.
        J Wolfgang Goerlich: My RSA talk is up. Join me in dismantling the myth of the weakest link, and building human-centric and human-first security programs.
