Reimagining Cyber - real world perspectives on cybersecurity

The Nastiest Malware of 2025 - Ep 173


Listen Later

In this chilling Halloween special of Reimagining Cyber, cybersecurity expert Tyler Moffitt counts down the nastiest pieces of malware that defined 2025 — and the identity-driven attacks reshaping the threat landscape.

From AI-powered social engineering to ransomware “lawyer buttons”, this year’s cybercriminals blurred the line between hacking networks and hacking people. Tyler breaks down how attacks moved inside the perimeter — exploiting trust, voice, and identity — and what that means for businesses of every size.

Plus, Tyler shares a realistic survival playbook for modern threats — from identity hardening and privilege reduction to tabletop drills against voice scams and “click-fix” lures.

“The perimeter is now your people,” Tyler warns — and AI is supercharging the threat.

This episode drops ahead of Tyler’s live webinar on October 30, where he’ll go even deeper into the 2025 malware report.
