Find news through the blog.
Welcome to program 137 of the Security box. We've got a very interesting musings piece which we've blogged as well as another threat we need to talk about.
Musing
I've started yet another musings post, and this one came from Mastodon. I am not going to put the older posts in this category but will put new ones in this category. A very interesting musing thought piece is the article. The boost is quoted with the links linked as numbers for you.
Maybe a Moron or just a news item?
No April fools joke, man arrested for making swatting calls, faces 10 felony counts was the only post posted on April 1st. This was no April fools joke. The gentleman in question used Discord to post and share these videos and luckily nobody got hurt. You'll want to check out this article to determine what you think, and we'll determine where it goes and do it appropriately.
Mimic ransomware
New Mimic Ransomware Abuses Everything APIs for its Encryption Process comes from Trend Micro. This may be just as bad as Sandworm, if not worse. We'll discuss this Trend Micro article.
