This week, our hosts ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dave Bittner⁠ , ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Joe Carrigan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Maria Varmazis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (also host of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠T-Minus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Space Daily show) are sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. We start off with a celebration of Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Joe's story is on how the North Wales Police are warning cryptocurrency holders after a victim lost £2.1 million in Bitcoin to a highly targeted scam, where criminals posing as police used a fake security breach story to trick them into entering their password on a fraudulent site. Dave has two stories this week, the first one from a Reddit user being targeted by the classic "White Van Scam," where scammers tried to sell cheap projectors as high-end equipment using a fake story and forged receipt. In his second story, the FBI is warning that cybercriminals are spoofing its official IC3 website to steal personal information and scam victims, urging users to type the URL directly and avoid suspicious links or fake social media pages. Maria has the story on two U.S. senators pressing Tinder parent company Match Group to step up efforts against romance scams, demanding details on how it detects fraud and protects users from criminals exploiting trust on its platforms. Our catch of the day comes from Reddit where a user was targeted by a scammer, but cleverly was able to get them to retreat.

Every October, Cybersecurity Awareness Month brings a wave of tips: update your software, enable MFA, use strong passwords. But what good is any of that if the people behind the defenses are feeling burned out?In this episode of Talos Takes, Hazel sits down with Joe Marshall for a candid, vulnerable conversation about the human cost of cybersecurity. Joe opens up about his experience during the VPNFilter campaign — months of secrecy, long hours, immense pressure, and the trauma it left behind. Hazel shares her own journey with burnout, and together they talk about how to recognise the warning signs.They close with practical steps: building a personal “incident response playbook” that includes boundaries, peer support, and self-care. Because at the end of the day, you can't patch a system if you're burned out.

Security threats and nefarious tactics from hackers are on the rise, demanding more awareness and vigilance online. According to an IBM study of over 150 billion daily security events in more than 130 countries, there was a 71% year-over-year increase in cyberattacks that used stolen or compromised data. Helping learners understand what jobs are available for cybersecurity professionals is of paramount importance to combat the rise in cyberattacks. In this week's episode, we're sharing portions of our latest CERTIFIED Academy: IT webinar. We met with a team of cybersecurity experts from Microsoft: Brodie Cassell, Principal Cybersecurity Consultant; Rod Trent, Senior Program Manager Security/AI; Edward Walton, Microsoft Global Black Belt – Security; and Raae Wolfram, Senior Product Manager, Security.  Our Microsoft experts share their insights and tips for breaking into this rapidly expanding field. We dive into their professional experiences, key lessons they've learned, and effective strategies for educators to inspire learners to pursue these in-demand career opportunities. You'll get valuable insights and practical advice on navigating the dynamic world of cybersecurity professionals.

Every October, Cybersecurity Awareness Month provides an important reminder to everyone to review their cyber behavior. One of the most important things you can do is to make sure you keep up with software updates – those regular patches that plug newly discovered security holes that cyber criminals can and will use to attack your systems. Watch out for notifications in your web browser, antivirus and security software, and operating system that new versions are available, and accept the updates as soon as you can. You should also turn on automatic updates where possible, so that your operating systems and mobile applications are always up to date – keeping them secure and also giving you access to the latest features. If you're using company equipment or devices, your IT team will probably handle many updates for you – but they aren't likely to touch your home devices, including routers and security cameras that you should also update to avoid their being compromised. Remember: to stay secure, update early, update quickly, and update everything. The 60-second "Security Nudge" is brought to you by CybSafe, developers of the Human Risk Management Platform.

In an era where cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated and devastating, organizations can no longer afford to treat cybersecurity as the sole responsibility of their security teams. This episode of the Pure Report features industry veterans Jason Walker, Tech Strategy Director of Cyber Resilience, and Jason Langer, Tech Evangelist, to explore why cyber resilience must be approached as a team sport, breaking down the traditional silos between IT operations and security teams. Drawing from their extensive experience in data protection and security, the two Jasons delve into the stark realities of cyber impacts, including the sobering statistic that one in five organizations report employee terminations following outages. They examine the NIST Cybersecurity Framework through a collaborative lens, offering insights into how different teams can work together across the five key areas: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover. Through real-world examples and strategic discussions, listeners will develop a deeper understanding of why alignment between IT leaders and CISOs is crucial for building true cyber resilience. As organizations grapple with evolving threats, this timely discussion during Cybersecurity Awareness Month offers actionable strategies for fostering cross-team collaboration. The episode explores the evolution of cybersecurity conversations over the past five years, provides practical advice for improving security posture through teamwork, and highlights Pure Storage's role in enabling organizations to build robust cyber resilience strategies. Whether you're an IT professional, security specialist, or business leader, this episode provides valuable insights into transforming your organization's approach to cybersecurity from a siloed responsibility to a collaborative effort.
