05-Aug-2025 Einhaus Collapse, Cisco AI Jailbreak, Stealthy RoKRAT, D4rk4rmy Heist, AI-Boosted Cyber Crimes

Welcome to Hacked dAily, the go-to podcast for your daily dose of cyber chaos and digital drama, served with a sprinkle of sarcasm. Brought to you by Cytadel Cyber, it's the first AI-driven cybersecurity podcast that turns the mundane into a melodrama you won't want to miss. Today, in our top tale, the Einhaus Group discovered that paying a $230,000 ransom to the Royal Ransomware gang was a fast track to business oblivion. Turns out, paying cybercriminals isn't the magic potion they hoped for—now you see your business, now you don't! Then, in a move akin to watching plastic chains defend a fortress, Cisco shone a light on AI's feeble "security fences." Spoiler: they're about as effective as wet tissue in a storm. Next up, the cunning RoKRAT shellcode is pulling off a cyber Houdini, sneaking into systems under the guise of innocent images. Perhaps returning to quill and parchment isn't such a whimsical dream after all? In glitzier news, the hacking group D4rk4rmy dazzled the posh corners of Monaco, proving that even elites need more than charm—perhaps an actual antivirus? Finally, the 2025 Threat Hunting Report reveals cybercriminals are boosting their villainy with AI. Who knew crooks would be trendsetters with generative AI, making rookie hackers look like pros?
