Hot Take:

Hold on to your firewalls, folks, because the new kid on the block, Brain Cipher, is bringing a storm to the cyber seas. With a dash of LockBit 3.0's leaked spice and a pinch of their own secret sauce, they're cooking up a ransomware buffet, and Indonesia's National Data Center just got served their not-so-special of the day—an $8 million Monero-flavored ransom note. Yikes! 🌩️💻🤯
