In this episode, Maria Varmazis and Dave Bittner from N2K Cyberwire get back together to discuss the evolution of advanced persistent threats (APTs), threat actor landscape, attribution changes, and the future of cyber espionage over the past decade. Join Dave and Maria as they explore how geopolitical factors, organizational professionalism, and emerging technologies like AI are shaping cybersecurity threats. Together, they talk about: The shift in attribution practices over the last 10 years. The role of nation states and organized crime in cyber threats. The impact of AI and emerging technologies on cyber warfare. The challenges of naming and shaming threat groups. The professionalization and organizational evolution of APT groups.
(Presented by TLPBLACK: A cybersecurity intelligence platform focused on sharing curated, high-sensitivity threat insights and research with trusted security professionals.) Three Buddy Problem - Episode 111: OpenAI finally published a technical Hugging Face post-mortem, and Costin's verdict is blunt. He reads it as a document written for policymakers rather than for the blue teams who have to survive a thousand-agent swarm. We also dig into NVIDIA's $12.9 billion acquisition of Hugging Face, why JAGS thinks a frontier lab standing against open-source looks weak, and what that new industry open letter on cyber defense actually asks anyone to do. Plus, hotel Wi-Fi tradecraft after CaptiveCrunch, the FBI's ORB network takedown with Lumen, Chinese routers that ship backdoored from the factory, and the TeamPCP arrests in Australia.

James Pope is on site in Las Vegas more than a week before the doors open. As SOC lead for the Black Hat NOC and Senior Director of Security Product Research and Technical Marketing Engineering at Corelight, his show starts with switches and access points rather than alerts. The team brings in the ISP, the firewall, the switches, and the access points, deploys them across the conference, and then moves into SOC mode. If there is no network, there is nothing to secure. The tooling arrives through partnership rather than sponsorship. James Pope says a company cannot buy or sponsor its way into the NOC, and that the team picks what it wants and fills gaps as it finds them. Cisco covers Umbrella and file malware analytics, Palo Alto Networks provides the firewall and XSIAM as the log aggregator, Arista handles switching and access points, Jamf runs MDM across the registration devices, and Lumen supplies the internet. Corelight is the network visibility layer. That layer carries different weight here than it would inside a company. Asking attendees to install a certificate or an endpoint agent so the NOC can inspect their traffic is a request nearly everyone declines. In most corporate environments the endpoint is one of the richest sources of signal. At Black Hat, visibility into attendee activity comes from network data. A Black Hat positive is malicious activity that is legitimate in context. Attendees pay to learn attack techniques against real targets, and researchers demonstrate new exploits on stage. Those events generate true detections no corporate SOC would ignore. The NOC lets them run rather than killing a paid training exercise or a live demo. So how does the team tell a training exercise from a real attack? It baselines each classroom and spends its time on the outliers. When seventy students in a room run the same attacks against the same destinations, the activity is probably sanctioned. The curriculum is ingested as a JSON file and the system moves through a series of gates, asking whether this is a class, whether multiple sources are reaching the same destination, and whether the attack would be expected in that curriculum. Anything that does not fit comes back for a human. The team informs far more often than it blocks. On the day of the recording, James Pope went to the trade show floor to tell someone that command and control traffic was running from their machine, and handed over logs for their IT and security team. He is not their manager, and what happens next is their call. Illegal activity is treated differently, and a handful of times per show the team asks a room to stop. At Black Hat Asia, traffic from a Corelight sensor showed a double RAT infection on one machine, a single APT running one implant for exfiltration and another for command and control. Working from traffic, James Pope established that the person was a reporter, the region they covered, and the company they worked for. Open source intelligence narrowed it to a single name, registration confirmed the person was on site, and the NOC invited them in. The reporter arrived expecting a product demo. The laptop was reset with everyone present, sessions were revoked, passwords were changed, and the reporter left in a secured state. This year the team opened the Outpost, running real Black Hat network logs from Corelight behind application guardrails, LLM guardrails, and a kill switch, where visitors query the data with text to SQL. Agentic triage stitches alerts into detections and detections into a timeline, and James Pope treats the ability to drill down to raw logs as a requirement rather than a preference. Success is measured largely by what does not happen: no compromise of registration, the switches, or the access points, and people who arrive infected leaving better than they got here.

Bangkok's nightlife is exploding, new clubs open almost every month, millions of dollars get poured into Las Vegas–style megaclubs, and half of them are shut down within a year. So what's actually going on? In this episode I sit down with Dennis Gold, a Croatian house DJ who's spent the last four years playing everything from Bangkok rooftops to packed nightclubs like Baccarat, APT 101, and Veyla. We talk about the business behind these clubs: why the RCA area keeps opening EDM clubs that dilute each other, why a 6,000-person superclub couldn't survive, and why some venues stay packed for years while others disappear overnight.
Comment permettre à tous les élèves de communiquer spontanément et efficacement en langue vivante ? Isabelle Brugnoli, professeure des écoles en CM2 à Aix-en-Provence, a choisi de s'inscrire dans un dispositif de recherche-action et d'expérimenter l'approche performative théâtrale (APT), une approche peu connue en France qui donne aux élèves la possibilité de créer des personnages, de raconter des histoires et d'interagir avec les autres. Par le jeu théâtral, les élèves, quel que soit leur niveau, osent davantage s'exprimer, ils mémorisent plus facilement et prennent confiance en eux. Dans la séance que vous allez découvrir, Isabelle a accueilli dans sa classe l'artiste-pédagogue Jane Rony pour guider les élèves vers la création de véritables petites saynètes en anglais...

In this episode, Chris sits down with James Beshara - founder of Magic Mind, angel investor in 150+ companies (Mercury, Alchemy, Gusto, Halo Top), and a Dallas native who built Tilt and sold it to Airbnb. James spent two years tinkering with Magic Mind before he ever called it a business. Today it's a $100M CPG brand and the #1 health shot in natural retail - run with 10 employees, no Slack, almost no meetings, and a founder-CEO split he calls the Palmer Lucky lane. He is also one of the more thoughtful voices on the question every operator eventually wrestles with: what to build, when to build it, and how to know whether you are actually wired for it. They discuss: - How Magic Mind got to $100M with 10 employees, no Slack, and almost no meetings - The Palmer Lucky lane - how to be a founder without being the CEO - Why scratching your own itch beats chasing big ideas on a notepad - His biggest miss as an angel investor - the OpenAI seed round, what one investor calculated as the equivalent of 30 Googles - Wave selection - why standing still is sometimes the highest-leverage move in business - The Bhagavad Gita and surrendering into a duty-bound existence - Apt - the new company he sat on for seven years before building it Timestamps: (04:30) Where Can You Be Most Uniquely Useful?

Drönare har gjort Kina till en spelare i kriget i Ukraina. Men nu växlar Taiwan upp och utmanar Kinas drönar-dominans. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Både Ryssland och Ukraina har använt sig av kinesiska drönare på slagfältet. Och när Ukraina skalat upp sin egen drönarproduktion har landet fortsatt vara beroende av kinesiska komponenter. På sikt vill Ukraina dock stå på helt egna ben och nu kliver även Taiwan fram som ett alternativ till Kina. Taiwan erbjuder Europa så kallade ”icke-röda” leveranskedjor, drönare helt fria från kinesiska komponenter. Kan drönarexporten bli Taiwans nya sköld?Lubna El-Shanti beskriver hur drönarna påverkar både vid fronten och vardagslivet i Ukraina. Men hur påverkas då globala styrkeförhållanden när Kinas dominans på drönarfronten utmanas? Hör också om Taiwans strategi att använda drönare, inte bara för sitt eget försvar, utan även för att knyta till sig och stärka banden till länder i Europa. Kan nya drönarallianser rentav bli del av Taiwans sköld mot Kina? Och hur ser Peking på det i så fall?Medverkande: Hanna Sahlberg, Ekots Kinareporter.

Today's guest is a prolific producer behind Sicko Mode, Broccoli, Bad at Love, Kiss Me More, Laugh Now Cry Later, First Class, and APT. — but whose real story isn't the catalog. It's how most of those songs happened by accident.A classically trained concert pianist who spent his teens grinding through Liszt and Prokofiev knuckle-busters, Rogét quietly became one of the most important producers in modern pop and hip-hop — and almost none of it happened the way he planned.This is one of the more honest conversations about what mastery is actually for — what happens when a decade of preparation collides with a 9pm pull-up, a stock preset, and a flute sound turned on by accident. When the world keeps rewarding your simplest moves, who do you become?And The Writer Is... Rogét Chahayed!In this episode of And The Writer Is, we go deep on:Years of grinding Liszt and Prokofiev — and a first big check from four major triads on a fluteThe three-week run in 2016 that produced Broccoli, Skywalker, Bad at Love, and the seed of Sicko ModeThe Mr. Miyagi era under Doctor Dre's right-hand man — and a pajama meeting at Dre's hidden studioSicko Mode — made on a stock preset in a closet-sized vocal booth — and the moment he heard it open AstroworldKiss Me More — a 2-5-1 with a walk-down — and what jazz school actually trained him to doCo-executive producing Jack Harlow's album from 4pm to 4am for a year — and how First Class came togetherAPT. — the song he forgot about until Bruno Mars mentioned it at a friend's barbecueAnd much more...Hit subscribe and turn on notifications.

When a production line stops, the financial damage is immediate — and the window to respond safely is narrower than most security teams realize. Rob Demain, CEO and Founder of e2e-assure, joins this Brand Highlight to explain why OT security demands a fundamentally different mindset than IT, and what organizations can do about it. Operational technology runs the infrastructure that keeps the world moving — manufacturing floors, power grids, air traffic control systems. Rob Demain founded e2e-assure in 2013 and has spent the past seven years narrowing its focus to one discipline: SOC and MDR services. He calls it "specificity" — the principle that doing one thing with precision delivers better outcomes than spreading resources thin. In IT security, the primary concern is data. In OT, the stakes are entirely different. Downtime is the real threat. For a manufacturing business, minutes of halted production translate directly into significant financial loss. That distinction changes everything about how security teams must respond. The "safety first" rule in OT means responders sometimes have to run alongside a threat rather than immediately neutralize it — because disconnecting systems could halt the production line entirely. The most common attack path into OT environments runs through IT: adversaries compromise IT first, then move laterally into OT systems. Supply chain risk is the second major vector. Firmware updates, software patches, and third-party management systems all represent potential entry points. Detection takes longer too — OT systems often lack the endpoint tools that trigger fast alerts, leaving threats to surface as subtle pattern deviations over extended periods. This is a Brand Highlight — a short introductory conversation designed to put a spotlight on the guest and their company.

What if the tools protecting your organization were the ones compromising it? In this episode of The Audit, co-hosts Joshua Schmidt, Eric Brown, and Nick Mellem — joined by IT Audit Labs team member Samuel Cala live in the St. Paul studio — unpack a wave of cybersecurity stories that all converge on one unsettling theme: trust is being exploited at every layer of the stack. From an Iranian-linked APT group targeting U.S. healthcare infrastructure, to a sophisticated GitHub Actions supply chain attack that backdoored an AI coding library used by thousands of developers — the crew breaks down exactly how threat actors are weaponizing the tools, platforms, and third-party services organizations depend on daily. They also dive into a disturbing revelation about AI-powered audit certifications: one company allegedly fabricated compliance evidence to hand out ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certifications at a fraction of the cost — raising serious questions about what those credentials are actually worth. In this episode:
On the RSAC Conference show floor, Tony Anscombe shared how ESET has expanded its threat intelligence offering with ECR reports -- designed to give commercial organizations both machine-readable feeds and human-readable analysis. The reason: threat actors are increasingly hard to attribute, they share tools, run coordinated campaigns, and reinvest profits into more sophisticated operations. Having someone do the research and surface actionable intelligence is no longer a luxury. Anscombe pointed to a telling campaign pattern from last year: threat actors refined attack methods against UK retailers, then rapidly adapted those same techniques against US retailers. The implication is clear -- your business may be unique in its infrastructure, but it is not unique in its sector. Understanding how your sector is being targeted is the foundation of a prevention-first posture. Automation came up as equally non-negotiable. If it takes three days to collect all the information needed to make a determination about an incident, the post-attack phase has already begun. ESET Inspect is designed to flip that equation: when an analyst opens an incident, the forensic analysis is done, the evidence is visualized, and the determination can be made on facts rather than gathered through investigation. Anscombe was careful to draw a line between automation as speed and automation as replacement. ESET's position is that AI should operate alongside human expertise -- trust and verify applies to AI-assisted analysis just as it does to any intelligence feed. Oversight remains essential, even as the tooling gets faster. A preview of upcoming survey data offered one of the more striking moments in the conversation. Roughly 35% of SMBs using MDR are sourcing that service directly from their cyber insurer. Anscombe flagged the monoculture risk: when a large share of businesses in the same sector run identical security stacks, a single point of failure becomes a sector-wide vulnerability. His advice after 30 years in the industry -- different organizations should deliberately choose different platforms to maintain diversity. This is a Brand Spotlight. A Brand Spotlight is a ~15 minute conversation designed to explore the guest, their company, and what makes their approach unique.

Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KThe Notorious Mass Effect segment delivers a detailed breakdown of Bruno Mars' long-awaited solo return with The Romantic, released February 27, 2026, via Atlantic Records. Hosted by Analytic Dreamz, this analysis covers the 9-track, 31-minute album—his first solo project in nearly a decade since 24K Magic (2016)—blending retro-soul, disco-pop, funk, 1970s influences (Curtis Mayfield, Philly soul), and Latin elements like bolero, cha-cha, and mariachi for a crooner-forward, romantic vibe timed near Valentine's.Lead single “I Just Might” (January 9, 2026) debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with retro-funk/disco energy and a Leo Sayer interpolation. Follow-up “Risk It All” dropped with the album, featuring mariachi-styled visuals and wedding-themed romance. Early streaming shows strong momentum on Spotify and Apple Music, boosted by billions from recent hits “Die With a Smile” (with Lady Gaga, 2025 Grammy winner) and “APT.” (with Rosé, Grammy-nominated).Critical reception is mixed: praise for vocal polish, production, and crowd-pleasing retro-soul (Rolling Stone: positive crowd-pleaser; NME: 4/5 mature persona), but some critique homage-heavy predictability and sentimentality (Paste: D+ overly sentimental). Physical editions include translucent red and gold vinyl for collectors.Analytic Dreamz highlights strategic insights: short runtime for high completion/replay rates, playlist-friendly nostalgia, Latin market expansion, wedding/event utility for long-tail streams, catalog halo from legacy smashes (“Just the Way You Are,” “Versace on the Floor”), and steady streaming over viral spikes.The Romantic Tour kicks off early April 2026 in Las Vegas (Allegiant Stadium), spanning North America through late May, Europe (Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, Madrid, Milan, London) late June–mid July, and back to U.S./Vancouver by mid-October. Features Anderson .Paak as DJ Pee .Wee, plus select supports like Leon Thomas, Raye, Victoria Monet.This polished, formula-consistent revival reinforces Bruno's retro-romantic brand, leveraging hiatus demand and prior collaborations for sustained commercial longevity.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/exclusive-contentPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The compact 9-track, 31-minute project on Atlantic Records delivers a ballad-heavy, mid-1970s retro-soul vibe with strong Motown and Philly soul influences, emphasizing slow-dance romance and timeless dancing.Launch day dominated US Spotify: lead single "I Just Might" (January 2026 Hot 100 #1, Grammy-performed) jumped to #3, while "Risk It All"—a Latin-influenced bolero ballad with mariachi trumpets, violins, guitarrón, and vihuela—debuted at #1 with 2.32 million streams. "Cha Cha Cha" (#6) and "God Was Showing Off" (#8) joined for 4 Top 10 entries, plus 8 in the Top 20 total."Risk It All" music video (co-directed by Mars and Daniel Ramos) features a wedding narrative in a vintage Catholic church, mariachi band, all-white suit and cowboy hat, "Just Married" exit, and life montage—perfect for Latin crossover appeal, backed by co-signs from Rancho Humilde, Fuerza Regida's JOP, and Ivan Cornejo.Critical takes praise vocal prowess, cohesive aesthetic, and authentic vintage textures, though some note cliché lyrics and limited depth compared to Silk Sonic's collaborative energy.Promotion included The Romantic Flower Shop pop-up in LA with free flowers, photo ops, merch, and global "love lock" walls. The Romantic Tour kicks off April 2026 in Las Vegas, featuring Anderson .Paak (as DJ Pee .Wee) on all dates, plus Victoria Monét, RAYE, and Leon Thomas on select shows across North America and Europe.Analytic Dreamz analyzes the streaming explosion, Latin fusion strategy, multi-generational wedding/slow-dance potential, and Bruno's enduring pop dominance post-2025 hits like "APT." and "Die With a Smile."Tune in for the full unfiltered review on Analytic Dreamz—hip-hop and pop culture insights.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/exclusive-contentPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Today we have Tomer Bar, VP of Security Research at SafeBreach Labs, discussing their work on "Prince of Persia: A Decade of Iranian Nation-State APT Campaign Activity under the Microscope". In this first installment of SafeBreach's deep dive into the Iranian-linked APT known as “Prince of Persia,” originally exposed by Palo Alto Networks Unit 42, researchers reveal that the group never truly went dark after 2022—but instead evolved. Led by Tomer, the investigation uncovers new variants of Foudre and Tonnerre malware, expanded campaign scale, active C2 infrastructure through late 2025, and a shift toward Telegram-based command-and-control. The research provides rare, sustained visibility into nearly a decade of Iranian nation-state cyber operations, offering fresh indicators of compromise and insight into how the group continues to refine its tooling, obfuscation, and targeting.
