27-Nov-2025 Cyber Chaos: London Attacks, AWS Outage, and Anthropic's Espionage Drama

Welcome to Hacked dAily, the first AI-driven cybersecurity podcast brought to you by Cytadel Cyber, here to make your daily dose of cyber chaos a little more bearable. Today, we kick off with the tale of several London councils whose IT systems waved the white flag after an unexpected cyberattack. Councils are in the race against time, attempting to untangle the mess faster than you can make a cup of Earl Grey. Next, grab your popcorn! A botnet took full advantage of an AWS outage, spreading its tentacles across 28 countries like an over-caffeinated octopus. It was a heist so perfectly timed, you'd think it had inside information. Meanwhile, Qilin ransomware is on a spree - from universities to high-end silversmiths, hoarding sensitive data like Black Friday deals. They’ve turned document pilfering into an art form, proving that no data is too silver-spooned to be safe. In other shenanigans, Google's new AI tool was hacked almost immediately post-launch, as though speed dating the cybersecurity world. It's a gentle reminder that sometimes, it’s better to slow down and double-check the locks. Finally, Congress invited Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei for a little chat about a supposed Chinese espionage mission. We're all ears, hoping the government's security plan is more robust than a dial-up connection. Join us daily for more tales from the digital frontier—where humor meets hacking!
