Description


  • Kuala Lumpur International Airport says no to a ransom attack, switches to whiteboard.

  • A tired and jet-lagged Troy Hunt got Phished then listed himself on his own site.

  • Cloudflare completely pulls the plug on port 80 (HTTP) API access.

  • Malware is switching to obscure languages to avoid detection. FORTH, anyone?

  • Password reuse doesn't appear to be dropping. Cloudflare has numbers.

  • A listener shares his log of malicious Microsoft login attempts. Why no geofencing?

  • 23andMe down for the count (reminder).

  • A sobering Ransomware attack & victim listing website. Gulp!

  • "InControl" keeps VR planes aloft.

  • And the European Union gets serious about a switch to Linux
