Another week, another reminder that cybersecurity never sleeps—and neither do the threat actors! 😅

From record-breaking DDoS attacks and zero-day exploits to nation-state espionage campaigns and AI-powered fraud, this week’s #FWU covers the full spectrum of cyber chaos. We’re talking about breaches at major platforms, government policy debates, and even Cloudflare accidentally breaking the internet with a file that got too big (relatable, honestly).

Whether you’re worried about your smart toaster joining a botnet or just want to stay informed on the latest threats, check out this week’s curated cybersecurity intel.

From record-breaking DDoS attacks and SVG-based phishing to zero-day exploits and AI-powered trade secret drama — this week’s threat landscape had something for everyone (except peace of mind).

🔍 Russian APTs were intercepted mid-hack, North Korea’s ScarCruft went academic, and Google had to patch 120 Android flaws (yes, 120 — not a typo).

🏭 Meanwhile, Bridgestone and Jaguar Land Rover hit the cyber brakes, Salesloft Drift’s supply-chain chaos keeps expanding, and a misconfigured server spilled 378GB of Navy Federal data like a coffee cup on a Monday keyboard.

Friday Wrap Up: 18 July 2024

Thu, 18 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Another wild week in cybersecurity! From hackers giving Elmo a social media crisis and ransomware taking a shot at Russian vodka, to DDoS attacks making 2024 look like a warm-up act—there’s plenty to keep security pros and IT teams busy (and probably a little stressed).

We’ve got everything:
• Stealthy new hacking tools targeting Azure, Okta, and more
• Major malware campaigns sneaking through npm and even Microsoft Teams
• Supply chain risks with firmware bugs and Linux cryptominers that just won’t quit
• Ransomware hitting both companies and their liquor cabinets
• Long-standing vulnerabilities (turns out, some train hacks just need a couple of decades to get noticed)
• Cloudflare blocking a tidal wave of DDoS—and accidentally blocking itself, but hey, no hackers there
• And for good measure, a dose of AI panic…with experts saying we can keep our robot uprising memes on standby (for now)
