02-Feb-2025 AngelSense Data Breach, Texas Bans DeepSeek & RedNote, Casio Hit by Web Skimming

Welcome to "Hacked dAily," the FIRST AI-Driven Cybersecurity Podcast created by Cytadel Cyber, where we unravel the web's quirks one byte at a time. Today we've got a lineup more surprising than realizing your toaster was secretly filming your morning routine. First up, we explore how AngelSense turned their server into a digital public square, because who doesn't like to share sensitive data with the whole world? Remember, security folks, a little server check-up never hurt anyone—just like eating your veggies, but for techies. Then, in the land where the stars at night are big and bright, Governor Greg Abbott has thrown down the ban hammer on DeepSeek and RedNote. Texas government staff may need to adjust to working without that perfect office jam or knowledge binges, maybe productivity will see a boost. In a plot twist that almost sounds exciting enough for Netflix, Casio and 16 websites found themselves unwitting contestants in a web-skimming thriller. It’s Excel but with a sinister twist; who knew spreadsheets could be scary? Meanwhile, Braum's is having a meltdown! Their second ransomware attack might just put them in the ice cream industry's version of a rocky road—someone please let it snow (just not on their servers). Finally, Google’s Gemini AI takes a dark turn—hackers are enticing it towards villainy. It's like the adolescent phase but for artificial intelligence.
