Hot Take:

Here's a new acronym to add to your cybersecurity vocabulary - MOVEit. It's not a new dance move or a motivational slogan, it's a managed file transfer product that's been leaving footprints all over the cybersecurity dance floor. The latest to be tripped up by its vulnerability? Healthcare provider Welltok. Despite an initial clear, their second look into the mirror ball showed unauthorized access, and a whole lot of sensitive data doing the cha-cha out the door. The breach is hitting some high notes, with around 1.6 million people thought to be affected, and it seems like the dance-off is far from over. So, do the MOVEit...just make sure it's away from your sensitive data.
