Cyberattacks on big companies get plenty of attention, but small businesses are hit about four times as often. A New Orleans restaurant owner lost thousands after her Facebook was hacked. The Gulf States Newsroom's Stephan Bisaha shares why hackers are targeting small businesses. There's been roughly $11 billion in cuts to university research funding since President Trump took office in January. Trump has cited widespread political bias, including antisemitism, as the reason for these cuts, saying universities have forfeited the right to taxpayer support. While institutions like Harvard and Johns Hopkins are temporarily self-funding their research, not every institution has the means to do this. Robert Twilley,  a professor and vice president at the Office of Research & Economic Development at Louisiana State University joins us to discuss how research funding cuts could impact schools like LSU.Recent national analysis shows Louisiana is bucking a national trend related to state budgets. It's called revenue volatility, and the report from The Pew Charitable Trusts shows Louisiana's is actually lower than most of the nation.Justin Theal, senior officer with The Pew Charitable Trusts tells us how this rating relates to the state's budget.___Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

DragonForce has emerged as a significant threat actor in the cybercrime landscape, targeting vulnerabilities in the SimpleHelp remote monitoring and management tool to execute sophisticated ransomware-as-a-service attacks against managed service providers (MSPs). Recent incidents have highlighted how attackers exploited known vulnerabilities, including path traversal and privilege escalation issues, to deploy DragonForce ransomware, which involved exfiltrating sensitive data and employing double extortion tactics. While some clients were protected by endpoint security measures, others suffered significant impacts, underscoring the importance of maintaining IT hygiene and patch management.The rise of DragonForce is indicative of a broader trend where low-key remote monitoring and management vendors become high-risk entry points for cybercriminals. The evolution of DragonForce from disruptive ransomware player to a full-blown ransomware-as-a-service operator executing targeted extortion campaigns raises alarms about the security of tools widely used by small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). This situation serves as a reminder that disclosed vulnerabilities can become weaponized if organizations fail to prioritize patching and security measures.In another concerning development, ConnectWise's ScreenConnect has been identified as the most abused legitimate remote access tool in cyberattacks, accounting for a significant percentage of active threat reports. Cybercriminals are hijacking these tools, typically used by IT professionals, to infiltrate systems and deliver malicious software. The increasing popularity of ScreenConnect has raised vendor trust concerns among IT service providers, prompting discussions about the implications of using such tools in an environment where they can be misused, even without technical exploits.Microsoft is also making waves in the patch management landscape by introducing a Windows Update Orchestration platform that allows app developers to integrate their update processes into the Windows 11 framework. This initiative aims to create a unified system for managing updates across devices, addressing user concerns about fragmented experiences. The implications of this change are profound, as it positions Microsoft as a central authority in the software update lifecycle, potentially reshaping how managed service providers and security teams approach patching and update management in the future.  Four things to know today00:00 DragonForce Targets SimpleHelp Vulnerabilities in MSP-Focused Ransomware Campaign03:30 ConnectWise ScreenConnect Now the Most Abused Remote Access Tool in 2025 Cyberattacks, Report Finds05:56 Unified Patch Control: Microsoft's Update Orchestration Platform Threatens RMM Value Propositions08:55 Actionable AI: Governance Framework and MCP Protocol Deliver Real-World Benefits Amid Hype  This is the Business of Tech.     Supported by:  https://syncromsp.com/ All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

In this unfiltered episode of Unspoken Security, host A. J. Nash explores the looming threat quantum computing poses to our digital infrastructure with experts Robert Clyde, Managing Director of Clyde Consulting and Chair of crypto-security firm CryptoQuanti, and Jamie Norton, a Board Director at ISACA with extensive cybersecurity credentials. They cut through the technical jargon to explain how quantum computing fundamentally differs from classical computing and why its exponential processing power threatens to break current encryption standards."While current quantum computers operate at around 150 qubits, once they reach sufficient power, everything from banking transactions to secure communications could be compromised instantly," warns Robert during the discussion of "Q Day" — the moment when quantum computers become powerful enough to defeat public-key cryptography underpinning internet security.Despite the alarming scenario, the experts offer practical guidance on preparing for this threat. They outline how organizations should begin implementing post-quantum cryptography solutions developed by NIST, emphasizing that proactive preparation, not panic, is the critical response security professionals should adopt today. Listen to the full episode to understand the quantum threat and learn the concrete steps your organization should take now before Q Day arrives.Send us a textSupport the show

What legal responsibilities does a company have to keep your data secure?M&S, and the Co-op are picking up the pieces after their systems were hacked. The cyber criminals claim to have the private information of 20 million people who signed up to Co-op's membership scheme, but the firm have not confirmed that number. The Co-op says the breach did not include members' passwords, bank or credit card details. However, experts say seemingly innocent information can be used to commit fraud or identity theft.Companies aren't the only target; on Monday this week, the Ministry of Justice revealed that the Legal Aid Agency was also hacked in April. So can you sue if your private data is stolen in this way? And if you're the employee who clicked on a hacker's dodgy link in an email, how liable are you for any losses that occur?Also on the programme: How survivors of domestic violence in Scotland want to be told if their attackers make plea deals.

In this episode of Don't Eat Poop!, our hosts Matt and Francine are talking about some growing threats to food safety: cyber attacks, food terrorism, and food fraud.For some time, these were associated with external threats, as was the case with JBS's Russian ransomware attack, which stopped 30% of the American meat supply back in 2021, and the lead-laced-cinnamon fraud that came from Ecuador and led to the Cinnamon Applesauce Pouches Lead and Chromium Poisoning Outbreak.But today, our hosts are bringing you a very serious case of a cyber attack by someone on the inside, with dangerous consequences for both consumers and workers at a poultry processing facility. So, stay tuned to know all about these growing threats and how to protect your facility from them.In this episode:

Isabel Cleary, Investigative reporter at NBC4 broke the story and has remained on it looking for more answers on how it happened.

Christian Espinosa, founder of Blue Goat Cyber and leading voice in medical device cybersecurity, joins Etienne Nichols to unpack the urgent and often misunderstood topic of cybersecurity in MedTech. From FDA's 2023 regulatory overhaul to real-world hacking scenarios that could harm patients, Christian provides practical advice for innovators, RA/QA professionals, and software teams. He also shares why waiting until the last minute on cybersecurity could cost startups millions—or even kill a project entirely.Whether you're a quality professional trying to build compliant systems or an innovator racing toward FDA submission, this episode lays out exactly what you need to know to stay ahead of cyber threats and within regulatory guardrails.Key Timestamps:00:01 – Intro to guest Christian Espinosa and Blue Goat Cyber06:28 – Why medical device cybersecurity is different from traditional IT security11:49 – Real-world hacking example: acne laser device turned skin-burner13:57 – FDA expectations post-September 2023: what changed17:12 – Secure boot: a microcontroller mistake that derailed a launch20:35 – Common cybersecurity vendor mistake MedTech companies make23:40 – SBOM: Software Bill of Materials and why it's legally critical27:58 – Cyberattacks in hospitals: assuming a hostile network35:44 – AI in medical devices: data bias and cybersecurity challenges41:10 – Developers ≠ cybersecurity experts: the training gap nobody talks about45:20 – What RA/QA professionals need to know now49:30 – Why cybersecurity must be iterative, not a final-phase add-on55:20 – Espinosa's final advice for MedTech professionals57:52 – The story behind “Blue Goat Cyber”Standout Quotes:“Cybersecurity for medical devices isn't about data breaches—it's about patient harm. You could paralyze someone or misdiagnose sepsis. This isn't theoretical.”— Christian Espinosa, on the real risks of insecure devices“Most developers don't understand cybersecurity. We assume they do—but that's like expecting an architect to be a locksmith.”— Christian Espinosa, on why so many devices fail security assessmentsTop Takeaways:Cybersecurity isn't just about data—it's about patient safety. From burning skin to missed sepsis diagnoses, vulnerabilities in devices have real-world harm potential.FDA now requires more than just a basic security plan. Post-September 2023 rules mandate testing (SAST, DAST, fuzzing), SBOMs, and risk assessments tied to patient harm.Start cybersecurity planning during the requirements phase. Hardware like microcontrollers must support secure boot and other protections—retrofits can cripple product plans.Iterate cybersecurity like any core development activity. One-time testing near submission is too late; build security into your pipeline just like QA or usability.Traditional cybersecurity vendors aren't enough. Many fail to meet FDA's nuanced expectations for medical devices, causing costly submission rejections.References & Resources:Christian Espinosa on LinkedInBlue Goat CyberEtienne Nichols on LinkedInMedTech 101 – Understanding SBOM (Software Bill of...

In this eye-opening episode of Unspoken Security, host AJ Nash welcomes notorious hacker and security expert Jayson E. Street to discuss why traditional security awareness training falls short. Jayson explains that most corporate security training is merely policy-driven compliance, not actual security education.Instead of focusing on checkbox exercises once a year, Jayson advocates for building situational awareness—a security mindset that extends beyond the workplace into everyday life. He shares practical strategies for gamifying security training, fostering a culture where employees feel like participants rather than targets, and creating year-round engagement through creative competitions.Through entertaining stories and candid insights from his experience as a simulated adversary for hire, Jayson challenges the industry's approach to security training and offers a refreshing perspective on how to make organizations genuinely more secure.Send us a textSupport the show
