On this week’s show, Patrick Gray, Adam Boileau and James Wilson discuss the week’s cybersecurity news. They cover:

• Anthropic’s new Mythos model hunts bugs and chains exploits together so well that… you cant have it…


• …Unless you’re one of their Project Glasswing partners


• The world isn’t short on bugs, though. F5, Fortinet, Progress ShareFile, and TrueConf are all getting rekt by humans


• GPU Rowhammering goes in the GPU, past the IOMMU and back into the host-side Nvidia driver


• North Korea is spending serious time and money on its crypto hacking


• Just when the US needs CISA most, they slash its budget some more!

This week’s episode is sponsored by identity verification firm, Persona. Tying digital actions to actual human identities isn’t just for banking know-your-customer any more. Persona’s Benjamin Chait says know-your-staff checks belong in high-value flows inside your organisation, too.

This episode is also available on Youtube.
