📢 This Week on The Awareness Angle
Rail hacks, WhatsApp risks, CCTV horror stories, teenage cyber gangs, and a staffing breach that leaked over a hundred thousand CVs. It has been a busy week.

Luke and I break down the biggest cyber stories in a way that actually makes sense for real people at work, not just security pros. We talk human risk, scams, what to watch out for, and why the simplest mistakes keep causing the biggest damage.

In this episode:
• The Italian rail supplier breach with 2.3 TB of stolen data
• Salesforce customer data stolen through a Gainsight integration
• Cornerstone Staffing and the leak of more than one hundred thousand CVs
• A WhatsApp flaw exposing 3.5 billion phone numbers
• A nationwide CCTV hack in India involving maternity wards and schools
• Australia’s new under sixteen ban and what it means for social platforms
• TfL’s 2024 cyber attack and the trial ahead
• Plus our own stories, scams we spotted, and awareness topics making the rounds this week
