Hot Take:

If cybersecurity news were a party, this week’s Security Affairs Newsletter would be the piñata: packed full of surprises, but with a few too many threats lurking inside. From insider threats to ransomware gangs, and hackers treating vulnerabilities like a “buy one, get one free” sale, it’s clear that the digital world’s chaos is as unpredictable as a cat on a Roomba. Grab some popcorn and watch out for those cyber potholes!

Key Points:

  • Insider threats are rising, but fewer companies are paying ransoms. Talk about mixed signals!
  • Even card shuffling machines aren’t safe from hacking – that’s a gamble we didn’t see coming.
  • Ransomware gangs have a new Linux flaw to exploit. Who knew penguins could be so dangerous?
  • Hackers threaten to leak university data, but they might need a degree in ethics first.
  • OpenAI Atlas Browser caught with its defenses down – “AI, meet your Achilles heel!”
