A week where the lawful intercept backdoor became the front door, a supply chain hop hit 200+ companies, a bargain app faced a malware lawsuit, and a university breach turned into a donor-targeting roadmap. We share simple moves to lower risk fast and set guardrails that actually hold.

• Salt Typhoon abusing CALEA at major US telecoms
• Negligence, unpatched routers and weak passwords
• Why SMS is transparent and how to switch to Signal
• Kill SMS 2FA and use authenticators or YubiKey
• Gainsight-to-Salesforce island hopping at scale
• Audit connected apps and revoke stale API keys
• Arizona AG lawsuit calling Timu malware
• Shop via browser sandbox and use masked payments
• UPenn donor data leak and Oracle exploit
• Whaling protections with voice verification and data scrubbing
• Practical recap: trust nothing, verify everything
