In a plot twist deserving of a digital blockbuster, meet the new hero in town: Yohanes Nugroho's free decryptor for the Linux variant of Akira ransomware. Now victims can reclaim their files without emptying their pockets—because nothing makes a hacker grumble more than unpaid ransom.

Fortinet, brace yourselves, as SuperBlack ransomware storms through your defenses with the finesse of a runway model, proving yet again that hackers never clock out.

Welcome to Hacked dAily, the first AI-driven cybersecurity podcast that's here to tackle the world of cyber mayhem with a pinch of sarcasm and a whole lot of vigilance! Today's episode starts with the LockBit ransomware developer, Rostislav Panev, who has been extradited to the U.S. in a crime drama twist, facing charges with his fellow tech villains for attacking 2,500 targets in 120 countries and allegedly raking in half a billion dollars. Apparently, cybercrime doesn't pay—at least not indefinitely. In corporate news, Cisco has patched a denial of service flaw in its IOS XR software, which previously allowed cyber vandals to pull the plug on the Border Gateway Protocol with a single malevolent update. Because let's be honest, nobody truly wants more than 254 autonomous systems knocking on their door. Next, researchers unveil a shocker in securing single sign-ons. Turns out, slipping past SAML SSO authentication is as easy as solving a one-piece puzzle, leaving IT teams worldwide exasperated and hackers grinning like Cheshire cats. Meanwhile, "Hacktivists Gone Wild" features Carruth Compliance Consulting's unwanted cameo in a data breach epic, inadvertently exposing sensitive data from US school districts, thanks to Skira ransomware group. And in the battle of deepfakes—a cautionary tale unfolds! These uncanny digital phantoms have moved from entertaining Snapchat filters to serious security threats, proving once more that in cybersecurity, fact is stranger than fiction.

Welcome to Hacked dAily, the AI-driven cybersecurity podcast that's more thrilling than a techie on a caffeine binge. Perfect for keeping you on your digital toes while slipping in a chuckle or two. In today's episode, we kick off with a massive cyberattack on X.

Next, we take a virtual safari through Nigeria, where WhatsApp and social media scams have turned scrolling into a modern-day Indiana Jones adventure. Trust is now so elusive, it might as well be unicorns in rush-hour traffic. On the tech tip, we explore MSTSC's public mode, the digital deep-cover op with no traces left behind. Just because you can vanish without a trace doesn't mean your bad decisions should. In the news splash department, ransomware's intellectual ambitions are on the rise.

Tune in to today's episode of Hacked dAily, where we unravel the latest cyber shenanigans with wit and irony to keep you entertained and informed! First up, we spotlight Apple’s macOS – the Ferris Bueller of operating systems – enjoying a day off from top-notch security, letting Rosetta 2 inadvertently roll the red carpet for malicious guests. An Apple a day might keep the doctor away, but apparently not cyber ninjas. Then, onto Texas, where a former employee’s "sabotage your ex-employer" how-to guide lands him in hot water. Remember, folks, our fantasies of workplace vengeance should stay in our heads—not in our former company’s destroyed server systems. The probable career switch to ‘prison IT’ is imminent! Over in Russia, SilentCryptoMiner worms its way into systems like a sneaky sitcom character, using fake VPN tools as bait. Always remember: if it sounds too good to be a secure browsing tunnel, it probably is a shortcut straight to digital plunder. Plus, the healthcare sector, still juggling ransomware as if it's part of the daily dose, fights the same old foes on their digital frontier—proving data breaches can be just as predictable as your hospital’s waiting times.
