This week we are joined by Marcelle Lee, cybersecurity consultant and researcher, discussing "CTI tradecraft: Investigating a mobile scareware campaign." She details how a routine click on a Google News story led to a mobile scareware pop-up—and a deeper investigation into a broader campaign. Using free tools like Censys, URLScan, VirusTotal, and CyberChef, she pivoted from two domains to uncover more than 100 related domains, shared infrastructure, and links to questionable antivirus apps in the Google Play Store. The findings are mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, showing how freely available resources can power meaningful, actionable threat intelligence.

THIS IS THE 'SEVERED: ORIGINS' BREAKDOWN OF 'ETERNAL SUNSHINE' - PT05Welcome back for Part Five of this Ultimate breakdown of "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind." If you've come this far, there's not a lot I can say. It's time to delve into Joel's humiliations. This is the cringy stuff Charlie Kaufman really likes to write about. It might leave you feeling just a bit sick to your stomach...that's okay, it's the CK way.Mrs. Howard makes a visit! Mary starts to kiss Howard right in front of the big window that's all lit up all of a sudden in Joel's apartment. They start this at the exact same moment as Mrs. Mierzwiak comes rolling up in her Chevy Sedan. Hollis unloads on Howard plus she spills the beans about Mary. At least she causes Mary to ask some questions that Howard finds hard to answer. Deceiving Mary will prove to be a very bad idea. This ORIGINS entry is a trippy 2004 title from French Director Michel Gondry. Both Dan Erickson and Ben Stiller list it as an inspiration. It stars Kate Winslet and Jim Carrey. This is considered one of the best things Jim Carrey has ever done.Get ready for Part FIVE of this enormous movie breakdown.*******Huge thanks to Adam Scott, star of 'Severance' and host of the Severance Podcast for recording a custom intro for "Severed."

Bogman and CK give a quick synopsis of the state of the roster and what we feel like each team should be targeting in Free Agency and the draft.  We did a deeper dive for the teams picking at the front of the 1st round so this is everyone from 11-32 and the four teams without a 1st round pick.Follow us on Twitter!  @BogmanSports   @Copieps

Statt Traumurlaub – Unsicherheit, Chaos, Hilflosigkeit. So geht es wahrscheinlich vielen der 30.000 deutschen Urlauber, die gerade wegen des Iran-Kriegs im Nahen Osten festsitzen. Statt am Pool sitzen sie in ihren Hotelzimmern oder in den Tiefgaragen. Immer wieder hören sie Raketen oder Drohen einschlagen. Wie und wann die Gestrandeten zurückkönnen – völlig unklar. Und dann ist da ein großes Flugzeug der Lufthansa, dass aus der Krisenregion nach München fliegt – komplett leer. Das Warten auf die Rückkehr – das ist das SWR3 Topthema mit CK.

For the next few weeks, the guys will be re-airing some of their favourite episodes from our archives.Today, Ali and Asif review the new documentary about Louis CK, ‘Sorry / Not Sorry' (1:53). They start off by discussing Louis CK's background, his blockbuster success as a stand up comedian and how he changed the financial model of stand up comedy specials. Then then discuss his sexual impropriety as outlined in the New York Times as well as in the documentary. The guys go over what they perceive as his lack of an apology as well as how CK was definitely not “canceled”. Louis CK does suffer from male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia), so in the second half of the episode, the guys discuss hair transplants (28:36) (N.B. Louis CK has never stated that he has had a hair transplant). Asif starts off by discussing how common baldness is and what causes it in most men. He then goes over other treatments for baldness like ‘Rogaine' and ‘Propecia'. He then goes over what hair transplants entail, the procedure, the costs, and the outcomes.

Fraud hasn't disappeared - it got smarter. Organized rings now aim upstream at SaaS platforms and ISVs that embed payments, where a single gap in onboarding, transaction logic, or refund flows can be scaled into thousands of attacks overnight. We sit down with Brian Rust, SVP and Deputy Chief Information Security Officer at Worldpay, to map the real fraud journey (entry, action, exit) and the concrete moves product and security leaders can make right now to protect merchants and brand trust.We start with the why: platforms offer leverage. Brian explains how bots and AI generate convincing synthetic businesses that pass weak KYC, and what early signals still break the spell - impossible form completion times, IP and address mismatches, and brand-new domains claiming long histories. From there, we dive into the middle of the kill chain: card testing. You'll hear how velocity spikes, elevated decline rates, and geo anomalies betray large-scale testing and how adaptive limits for new merchants can contain losses and prevent network penalties. Then we confront refund abuse, where attackers exploit trust by refunding to different instruments or flooding high-value returns. The fix isn't blanket friction - it's precision: refund-to-original-card only, refund velocity caps, and targeted reviews that slow bad actors while keeping good customers moving.Brian lays out the layers that matter now: device fingerprinting, behavioral analytics, and transaction monitoring that can halt suspect money movement before funds leave your orbit. He also makes the case for a fraud-cyber fusion model, aligning teams and intelligence using frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK to anticipate tactics as cyber and financial motives blend. Finally, we close with three actions you can ship this quarter: audit onboarding with bot controls and threat modeling, enforce velocity controls that adapt as trust grows, and tap your processor's data and filters (AVS, CVV) to harden defaults.If you lead product, risk, or engineering for a payments-enabled platform, this conversation gives you a practical blueprint to raise attacker costs, protect your merchants, and guard your reputation.

*Threat Hunting Workshop: Hunting for Privilege Escalation - Level 2February 11, 2026 | 12:00 - 1:00 PM ETSign Up: https://www.intel471.com/resources/webinars/threat-hunting-workshop-hunting-for-privilege-escalation-level-2----------Out of the Woods: The Threat Hunting Podcast returned with a live episode focused on the trends threat hunters saw repeatedly throughout 2025 and what those patterns point to next.This episode serves as a threat hunter's year in review. The discussion walks through the actors, malware, behaviors, tactics, and techniques that consistently surfaced over the year, ties those findings back to MITRE ATT&CK, and connects themes across recent episodes. The focus is on what stayed consistent, what mattered most during hunts, and what those signals reveal about where attention should remain.The conversation also looks ahead. Based on what emerged in 2025 and how hunts played out across environments, the panel shares perspectives on what is likely to continue, where focus is expected to remain in 2026, and what threat hunters should keep in mind going forward.Topics covered include: Threat actors, malware, and behaviors that appeared most often in 2025 Tactics and techniques that consistently surfaced across hunts, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK Common hunt themes observed across environments throughout the year What 2025 trends suggest about threat hunting focus in 2026 Behaviors and techniques likely to remain relevant moving forward Watch the episode here: https://youtu.be/GyYTTMNyjCE?si=WynwmHS1psGN9KqO----------Stay in Touch!Twitter: https://twitter.com/Intel471IncLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/intel-471/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIL4ElcM6oLd3n36hM4_wkgDiscord: https://discord.gg/DR4mcW4zBrFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Intel471Inc/

On this podcast episode, I discuss important practice pearls and important test prep information about statins. Statins are cornerstone agents for ASCVD risk reduction, so test questions often focus on indication, intensity, and monitoring. Health care professionals should quickly identify statin intensity: high-intensity therapy (atorvastatin 40–80 mg, rosuvastatin 20–40 mg) lowers LDL by ~50% and is indicated for patients with clinical ASCVD, LDL ≥190 mg/dL, or high-risk diabetes patients age 40–75. Moderate-intensity statins (e.g., atorvastatin 10–20 mg, simvastatin 20–40 mg) are commonly tested for primary prevention. Statin-associated muscle symptoms range from myalgias (most common, normal CK) to rare but serious rhabdomyolysis (marked CK elevation and AKI). Risk factors include high doses, advanced age, hypothyroidism, drug interactions, and renal impairment. If muscle symptoms occur, stopping the statin, ruling out secondary causes (like hypothyroidism), and rechallenging with a lower dose or different statin is often the correct clinical approach. Drug interactions and statin selection frequently separate good from great test-takers. Lipophilic statins (simvastatin, atorvastatin, lovastatin) are more prone to muscle effects and CYP3A4 interactions, while hydrophilic statins (pravastatin, rosuvastatin) are preferred in patients with prior intolerance or complex drug regimens. Grapefruit juice, strong CYP3A4 inhibitors, and certain calcium channel blockers raise simvastatin levels—often prompting dose limits or avoidance on exams. If LDL goals aren’t met, adding ezetimibe or a PCSK9 inhibitor is the next evidence-based step. Be sure to check out our free Top 200 study guide – a 31 page PDF that is yours for FREE!
