06/21 TOC Two Data Breaches Didnt Sink Novo Nordisks Stock. Why Not?
June was a challenging month for Novo Nordisk regarding cybersecurity and intellectual property protection. The pharma giant allegedly had some of its data — including intellectual property — stolen by two independent groups of threat actors. Unaware of each other, each group claimed to have acquired a large amount of valuable information. One demanded $25…

Following a major data security incident involving sensitive student and parent information, Global Schools Group sought court injunctions prohibiting the publication of data acquired by FulcrumSec. They obtained the injunctions, but once again, injunctions do not affect threat actors — or at least, not in the way the plaintiffs hoped.  Yesterday, DataBreaches reported that Global…

Another day, another injunction. When DataBreaches read the news headline, our first thought was that this was an injunction sought by Global Schools Group. Our first impression was correct, but it took a reminder from FulcrumSec to realize that it was GSG-connected.  Ananya Iyer  reports: The Bombay High Court issued an interim order restraining the…

06/19 TOC Apples Hide My Email tweak leaves privacy fans fuming
Apple has long marketed itself as the privacy-first tech giant. So why is it making a change to Hide My Email that will make it easier for websites to block anonymous sign-ups – and harder for you to stay private online? Read more in my article on the Hot for Security blog.

Canada’s spy service got a judge’s permission to reach into infected servers, home routers, and IoT gear sitting on Canadian soil and neutralize two foreign-run botnets. The Federal Court released a public version of the ruling on June 15. It is the first time the Canadian Security Intelligence Service has used its threat reduction warrant powers this way. The warrant let CSIS alter,

A new malware family is turning forgotten home routers into a distributed reconnaissance and proxy network, not the DDoS botnet these devices usually end up in. QiAnXin’s XLab calls it AryStinger and counts at least 4,300 infected routers, a total it says is still rising. The distinction matters. AryStinger exists for the stage of an attack that comes before the break-in. Infected

A new report from INTERPOL has revealed a “dramatic increase” in cybercrime in Asia and the South Pacific, fueled by rapid digitalization, internet penetration, new technologies, organized criminal networks, and a disparity in cybersecurity maturity.

Security researchers at Paradigm Shift have published a working exploit, dubbed usbliter8, that achieves arbitrary code execution inside the SecureROM of Apple’s A12 and A13 chips. That code is burned into the silicon at manufacture. No software update can reach it. Affected devices will carry this flaw for as long as they stay in use. This is not a remote attack. It requires

06/19 TOC From Assistive to Agentic: The AI Shift That’s Redefining Threat Manag…
Introduction The average enterprise security team has 40 or more security tools, giving a lot of visibility into internal telemetry and asset data. But often, these tools are working in siloes, generating (overlapping) alerts and data. And yet, breach dwell times remain stubbornly long (~43 days), response windows keep closing before teams can act, and analysts burn out triaging noise instead
06/19 TOC Forget Data Leakage: Shadow AI’s Real Threat Is Access Control
The first wave of enterprise AI concern was straightforward. It was simply employees pasting sensitive data into public AI tools. Security teams responded with usage policies, domain blocks, and data loss prevention rules. That response made sense at the time. It doesn’t fit the problem anymore. Shadow AI has shifted from a data leakage concern to an access control problem. The threat isn’t

06/19 TOC Anthropics Fable and the State of AI

On June 9th, Anthropic released its Fable generative AI model. Three days later, the US government classified it as a dangerous munition, and used its export-control authority to prohibit any foreign nationals from accessing it. Unable to differentiate between Americans and foreigners, the company shut off access for everyone.

The government’s actions won’t help. The problem isn’t any one particular model; it’s the general trend of increasing AI capabilities. And any real solution requires the sort of collective action that just isn’t possible right now…
