The Security box, podcast 128: What's going on with CISA?


Listen Later

Welcome to the Security box, podcast 128. On this podcast, we probably have two morons of the podcast, one of which should've gotten it before we came up with the idea. We also ask the question, What's going on over at CISA? This acronuym stands for Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.
Seems as though they don't know what's going on, or at least might be confused.
Moron of the podcast
We have listed both morons of the podcast by listing the basics of the story and links to the stories themselves.
1. It seems as though T-Mobile has had yet another breach with at least another estimated 37 million consumers, whether prepaid or postpaid.
  • New T-Mobile Breach Affects 37 Million Accounts Krebs on Security
  • T-Mobile investigates yet another data breach, this one affecting 37 million accounts Cyberscoop
  • 2. The second moron goes to a guy in Russia that thought it would be fun to launder crypto currency. Not only was he funneling Crypto, but he was the founder of a crypto currency exchange. Russian founder of a cryptocurrency exchange known for funneling ransomware profits arrested comes to us from Cyberscoop and hasn't been blogged as of yet, but will be.
    Topic: What's going on at CISA?
    CISA has been known to send notifications via an email list that people can subscribe to. How I got on it, I don't remember, but it has since changed the way things are sent. Regardless, the article Insiders worry CISA is too distracted from critical cyber mission is our article that will help us with our discussion. It also comes from Cyberscoop.
    Other stuff
    I know that Nick missed last week's program so we'll give him an opportunity to get on the program and talk about anything from last week. We'll go through news, notes and other things too.
