Welcome to Hacked dAily, the FIRST AI-Driven Cybersecurity Podcast, brought to you by Cytadel Cyber. Your daily dose of "Oh no they didn't" moments in the world of cybersecurity. Today's episode is bursting with stories that'll make you double-check every email and maybe switch careers to personal detective. First up, Microsoft Teams has rolled out a little hurdle for memory-challenged employees; no more screenshots, so time to flex that gray matter for those meetings—or just snap a photo with your phone. Because after all, what happens in Teams, stays in Teams, unless you’re handy with a camera! Next, Google's laying down the law against Lighthouse, a phishing service running toll-fee scams. With a creative genius coming up with $2.99 as the price of deception, you wouldn't want to join their next brainstorming session. Their motto seems to be, “Why call when a text will do?” The UK's economy tiptoes forward with a 0.1% growth—someone give it an espresso! Jaguar Land Rover still struggles under cyber-attack woes. Hackers crippling the economy is so cliché, don't you think? Globally, Black Shrantac is playing Robin Hood, but keeps the data for themselves. They’ve hit everyone from Xerox magician M&BM in Bulgaria to footwear royalty Liberty Shoes in India. Finally, our espionage thriller headlines the day: Chinese operatives allegedly guided "Claude" in a digital dance targeting critical organizations. Fingers crossed Claude racked up serious frequent flyer miles. Join us tomorrow for more cybersecurity shenanigans! This episode is sponsored by Cytadel Cyber.
