The straight up security news in 10 minutes or less! Aaron Lyons, John Strand, Beau Bullock and Paul Asadoorian cover the latest breaches, tool released and vulnerabilities.

You survived the click—but now the click has evolved. In Part 2, the crew follows phishing and ransomware down the rabbit hole into double extortion, initial access brokers, cyber insurance drama, and the unsettling rise of agentic AI that can click, run scripts, and make bad decisions for you. The conversation spans ransomware economics, why paying criminals is a terrible plan with no guarantees, and how AI is turning social engineering into a whole new wild west.

It's the holidays, your defenses are down, your inbox is lying to you, and yes—you're gonna click the link. In Part 1 of our holiday special, Doug White and a panel of very smart people explain why social engineering still works decades later, why training alone won't save you, and why the real job is surviving after the click. From phishing and smishing to click-fix attacks, access control disasters, and stories that prove humans remain the weakest—and most entertaining—link in security, this episode sets the stage for the attack we all know is coming.
