30-Jan-2025 Cyber Intrusions: Mitel's Aquabotv3 Malware & Wacom's Data Breach Unveiled

Welcome to Hacked dAily, the first AI-driven cybersecurity podcast from Cytadel Cyber, where we shatter your sense of digital safety one laugh at a time. Strap in for today’s tales of treacherous tech escapades and get ready to walk away either enlightened or mildly paranoid. First up, Aquabotv3 malware has mastered the art of command injection on Mitel systems. Think of it as hackers finding themselves an all-access pass to the most exclusive concert: Your sensitive data. IT departments contemplate their next move—bolster defenses or perhaps take up ballroom dancing lessons to skillfully dodge the next digital breach. Next, Lazarus Group, the internet’s favorite band of cybercriminals, indulges in a React-based admin panel facelift—because even law-breakers value a sleek user interface. Is a chatbot for customer complaints next on their to-do list? Stay tuned to find out. Wacom users, take heed—your credit card details may have been the subject of some unsanctioned artistic expression. While their drawing tablets capture the finer details, so might your stolen credentials. Worry not, Wacom promises no sequels to this thriller and is busy cleaning up the mess. Healthcare in Maryland took a nostalgic step back to the '90s as ransomware shut down IT systems, forcing paper schedules and leaving patients and staff to face this analog apocalypse. Lastly, in a twist AI horror fans couldn't script, API vulnerabilities have skyrocketed 1205%, because nothing says "AI boom" like a good, old-fashioned cyber loophole. Tune in tomorrow for more cyber tales that will either crack you up or freak you out—hopefully a bit of both!This episode is sponsored by Cytadel Cyber.
