LA Metro Hit by Ransomware, 153M Licenses for Sale, AI Breaches a Network in 10 Hours (opens the original)
Read excerpt
LA Metro, the transit system that moves nearly 10 million people in Los Angeles, just appeared on a ransomware gang's extortion site. A dark-web service is selling 153 million scanned driver's licenses. And security researchers watched AI break into a company and steal the master keys in under 10 hours.

Your business can be taken down in three completely different ways, and only one involves a hacker. This week, a cyberattack froze Boston Scientific, the company that ships pacemakers and defibrillators to hospitals worldwide.

Someone on a flight out of Las Vegas set up a fake network to steal passengers' logins, a ransomware gang seized a hospital's Facebook page to post its ransom note, and a White House memo would let private firms hack foreign cybercriminals back for the first time in U.S. history. *Cybercrime is out in the open now, and so is the fight back.* Bryan Hornung, Randy Bryan, and Reginald Andre break down what it means for ow
Levi's Hacked by a Phone Call, a City Beats Ransomware, and LockBit Is Back (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A six-billion-dollar brand got breached this week, and the attackers never wrote a line of code. They called three employees and pretended to be IT. Every business owner should sit with this: the same phone call works even better on a company your size. *Every breach is won or lost before it begins.* Bryan Hornung, Randy Bryan, and Reginald Andre break down this week's stories for executives, owners, and operators who do not have time to keep up with cyber news but cannot afford to be blindsided
