Welcome to Hacked dAily, the first AI-driven cybersecurity podcast by Cytadel Cyber, blending byte-sized updates with a dash of wit. First on our agenda: Cybercriminals have masqueraded as @facebookmail.com, phishing unsuspecting Facebook Business users with the elegance of a wolf in sheep’s clothing, minus that cozy cuddle. And if your unread email count is in the hundreds, congratulations! You're officially using the office hours version of dodgeball—we see you equivocating genius! Next, in a plot even James Bond would envy, hackers have cunningly roped in KakaoTalk and Google Find My Device for a new Android spyware adventure.

Moving on to a blooper reel favorite, the Rhadamanthys infostealer operators have misplaced the keys to their cyber lair. Talk about a rough Monday! Even criminals face tech bloopers – technical difficulties: 1, Hackers: 0. Across the pond, the Akira ransomware group is proving there's more to them than an anime classic, hitting US companies hard. They’re snatching misfit files like NDAs, sprinkling potential drama worthy of reality TV—just where's the popcorn when you need it? Finally, ChatGPT had a brief role as a secret spy thanks to a Server-Side Request Forgery flaw. No worries, OpenAI patched it up, quashing ChatGPT's 007 dreams before it could slip on a tux.

Today's headline news offers a chuckle-worthy tour of cybersecurity blunders. We start with the Louvre, where ancient artifacts are guarded by a password so laughably basic even the Mona Lisa cracked a smile. Didn't they get the memo that "password123" wouldn’t hold up in the digital Renaissance? Next, we dive into the UK’s Online Safety Act’s latest attempt to play global whack-a-mole. Blocking UK IPs just doesn't cut it, guys. But hey, maybe a gentle "please comply" note slipped into the inboxes of non-compliant websites will work wonders. Then, hold onto your identities because cybercriminals have taken impersonation to a whole new level using AI deepfake tech to bypass KYC protocols. You're safe from your dog stealing your identity... for now. In other news, ransomware roulette spun its wheel and Koch & Co, Inc. hit the jackpot of chaos, courtesy of the Akira gang.

The app is now a collector's item in law enforcement's Pokémon game. Catch 'em all, right? AI is having its 'Eureka!' moment, but the fraudsters are crashing the party with AI-powered pharmaceutical scams that are more convincing than your last dramatic performance.

Welcome to Hacked dAily by Cytadel Cyber, the first AI-Driven Cybersecurity Podcast that keeps you updated with the latest in cyber mayhem, sprinkled with a pinch of sarcasm to keep you coming back for more. Let's dive into today's tech drama: Firstly, Microsoft's marketplace accidentally showcased a vibe-coded ransomware proof-of-concept, making us question if "ransomware chic" is the next big fashion statement. Who knew coding had a "vibe"? Speaking of showcases, Oracle might need to dust off its virtual cape as the Cl0p ransomware gang made a dramatic entrance, claiming responsibility for a data breach in Oracle’s E-Business Suite. We can't decide if this is more "whoops" or "why?" Meanwhile, over in the UK, Jaguar Land Rover's cyber-kerfuffle contributed to the Bank of England’s GDP woes. Cyber heists: no longer content with data, now snatching GDP points too. In another corner of the cyber world, Rhysida took "sharing is caring" to heart, leaking almost 2TB of data from Gemini Group. Perhaps they confused it with movie popcorn—a whole lot of it. Finally, in a saga sure to delight sci-fi lovers, Google predicts AI will juggle dual roles of hero and villain in cybersecurity by 2026, as MITRE tweaks its ATT&CK Framework to keep things lively.
