Why are code signing certificates suddenly getting shorter, pricier, and more restrictive? Steve Gibson and Leo Laporte expose the "cabal" rewriting the rules for everyone who builds software—and what it means for your security and your wallet. Code-signing certificate lifetimes shortened by two years. Sadly, ChatGPT is heading toward an advertising profit model. The Python Package Index is strengthening its security. BitLocker gets hardware acceleration, but not today. New York City's mayoral inauguration banned Raspberry Pi's. An astonishingly good British time travel series.

Justin Tolman from Exterro joins the Forensic Focus Podcast to talk about the future of FTK and the role FTK Imager still plays in everyday casework. He explains why the original free version remains available, and what prompted the introduction of Imager Pro with added capabilities like BitLocker decryption and iOS collections. Justin also reflects on his time in law enforcement and training, and why the investigative side of the work still holds a strong pull. Looking ahead, Justin shares where FTK development is headed — from large-scale processing and streamlined review workflows to Whisper-based audio transcription and careful, targeted use of AI for tasks like summarising long documents and cross-media searching. He also previews Exterro's upcoming Inform event — a 15-hour global broadcast featuring talks from practitioners around the world — and invites the community to get involved. #DigitalForensics #DFIR #FTK #Exterro #ForensicImaging #MobileForensics #IncidentResponse 00:00 Welcome to the Forensic Focus Podcast 00:31 Introducing Justin Tolman from Exterro 01:46 Justin's Journey into Forensics 03:10 Transition to Training and Exterro 06:31 FTK Imager Pro: Features and Benefits 14:36 Training and Community Resources 16:29 Updates on FTK Suite and Scalability 19:10 On-Prem vs. Cloud Solutions 26:57 AI in Forensics: Benefits and Challenges 37:45 Addressing AI Bias in Forensics 38:53 Case Study: AI Misinterpretation in Seattle Shooting 40:14 The Importance of Validation in AI Forensics 41:18 Challenges in Identifying Legal vs. Illegal Content 43:08 The Future of AI in Forensics 44:18 Collaboration and Integration in Forensic Tools 46:07 The Role of APIs and Open Standards 47:18 Challenges with Proprietary Forensic Formats 54:36 The Need for High Compression Formats 56:32 Forensic Focus Podcast and Community Engagement 01:00:56 Upcoming Forensic Events and Presentations 01:06:23 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

BitLocker could be running on your PC without your knowledge. Without the recovery key, you risk losing everything. I'll show you three ways to check, find, and save your key.
BitUnlocker – Multiple 0-days to Bypass BitLocker and Extract All Protected Data
In this July 2025 Patch [FIX] Tuesday episode, Automox security experts Tom, Seth, and Cody unpack four high-impact threats — from Microsoft updates, to Linux vulns, and .zip exploit PoCs.Topics include a physical attack method bypassing BitLocker encryption (CVE-2025-48001), the looming expiration of secure boot certificates, a Linux privilege escalation flaw in chroot and sudo (CVE-2025-32463), and a proof-of-concept .zip exploit that hides malicious content during preview but runs it on unzip.Expect sharp technical insights, practical mitigation tips, and as always, a few laughs.

In this episode of 'Cybersecurity Today,' host Jim Love discusses several urgent cybersecurity topics. Microsoft has released an emergency patch after a recent Windows update caused BitLocker recovery mode on certain systems, locking users out without warning. The issue stems from the May security update affecting systems using Intel, vPro chips, and TXT.
