Shoot us a Text.Episode #1144: Dealers face rising cyber threats, Chevy launches big EV incentives, and the Goodyear Blimp marks 100 years over Detroit.Show Notes with links:Proton Dealership IT's Cybersecurity 2025 report shows auto retailers are still being hit hard by organized cyberattacks. Activity remains 150–250% higher than before mid-2024's massive outage, with new tactics targeting dealership websites, employees, and customer data.December 2024 saw a 110% year-over-year increase in dealership cyberattacks.A March 2025 supply chain breach slipped malware into dealership website photos.Criminals time attacks around holidays and off-hours, boosting ransom success.Stolen passwords and remote access put payroll, banking, and OEM systems at risk.Proton urges dealers to enforce MFA, deploy Managed Detection & Response, and train staff against phishing.“Attacks are targeting dealerships every single day. How well those dealerships are protected makes a difference,” Proton warns.Chevrolet is going all-in on affordability this month with new incentives across its Equinox, Blazer, and Silverado EVs—just in time before the federal EV tax credit dries up.The Equinox EV, dubbed “America's most affordable 315+ mile range EV,” now leases for as low as $249/month.Chevy is offering up to $3,000 in customer cash on the Equinox and up to $4,000 on the Silverado EV.Costco members can save an additional $1,250 on top of existing offers.Financing deals include 0% APR for 60 months or the $7,500 tax credit applied at the point of sale.Senior Vice President and President, North America, Duncan Aldred: “We will almost certainly see a smaller EV market for a while, and we won't overproduce. Still, we believe GM can continue to grow EV market share.”​​If you spotted the Goodyear Blimp flying over Detroit this week, it wasn't covering a touchdown or home run—it was celebrating a milestone.The Goodyear Blimp “Wingfoot One” was in town for the 2025 Automotive News Congress in Detroit.Goodyear and Automotive News are both celebrating their 100th anniversaries this year.Rides were offered to Congress attendees from Willow Run Airport on Sept. 10. And on Sept. 11, the blimp soared over the city in honor of the industry event.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Lösenordshanterarna Bitwarden och Proton Pass kan inte bara spara lösenord. De kan också generera de sexsiffriga engångskoderna som behövs för att logga in på konton som skyddas med tvåfaktorsautentisering. Trots att lösenordshanterarna har detta som en inbyggd funktion har både Bitwarden och Proton valt att därutöver släppa egna autentiseringsappar. Dessa appar konkurrerar med exempelvis Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Ente och Authy. Även om lösenordshanterarna kan generera engångskoder finns det ett specifikt konto som alltid behöver en dedikerad autentiseringsapp: kontot för själva lösenordshanteraren. Engångskoden för lösenordshanterarkontot kan inte genereras av lösenordshanteraren själv eftersom det hade lett till ett moment 22. (För att logga in i lösenordshanteraren måste användaren ha den rätta engångskoden. För att generera den rätta engångskoden måste användaren logga in i lösenordshanteraren.) I veckans podd pratar Peter och Nikka om lösenordshanterarnas egna autentiseringsappar. Nikka är framför allt imponerad över Protons nya autentiseringsapp som synkroniserar hemligheterna mellan alla enheter utan att vara låst till någon operativsystemstillverkares ekosystem. I Nikkas mening utmanar Proton Authenticator den sedan tidigare rekommenderade Ente Auth-appen. Se fullständiga shownotes på https://go.nikkasystems.com/podd316.

HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) is one of the most talked-about focal therapies in prostate cancer—but who is it really right for? In this conversation, Dr. Matthew Cooperberg (UCSF)—a leading voice in urology, epidemiology, and integrative prostate cancer care—breaks down patient selection vs. energy modality, how modern imaging (MRI, fusion, RSI) drives precision, what genomics (e.g., Decipher) can and can't tell us, and how salvage options compare after focal therapy vs. radiation. We also tackle lifestyle factors, trial design, and why midlife PSA screening (ideally

Phishing Training Effectiveness: A study of over 19,000 employees showed traditional phishing training has limited impact, improving scam detection by just 1.7% over eight months. Despite varied training methods, over 50% of participants fell for at least one phishing email, highlighting persistent user susceptibility and the need for more effective cybersecurity education strategies.Cybersecurity Risks in Modern Cars: Modern connected vehicles are highly vulnerable to cyberattacks. A researcher exploited flaws in a major carmaker's web portal, gaining “national admin” access to dealership data and demonstrating the ability to remotely unlock cars and track their locations using just a name or VIN. This underscores the urgent need for regular vehicle software updates and stronger manufacturer security measures to prevent data breaches and potential vehicle control by malicious actors.Nation-State Cyberattacks on Infrastructure: Nation-state cyberattacks targeting critical infrastructure are escalating. Russian hackers reportedly took control of a Norwegian hydropower dam, releasing water undetected for hours. While no physical damage occurred, such incidents reveal the potential for widespread disruption and chaos, signaling a more aggressive stance by state-sponsored cyber actors and the need for robust infrastructure defenses.AI Regulation in Mental Health Therapy: States like Illinois, Nevada, and Utah are regulating or banning AI in mental health therapy due to safety and privacy concerns. Unregulated AI chatbots risk harmful interactions with vulnerable users and unintended data exposure. New laws require licensed professional oversight and prohibit marketing AI chatbots as standalone therapy tools to protect users.Impact of Surveillance Laws on Privacy Tech: Proposed surveillance laws, like Switzerland's data retention mandates, are pushing privacy-focused tech firms like Proton to relocate infrastructure. Proton is moving its AI chatbot, Lumo, to Germany and considering Norway for other services to uphold its no-logs policy. This reflects the tension between national security and privacy, driving companies to seek jurisdictions with stronger data protection laws.Data Brokers and Privacy Challenges: Data brokers undermine consumer privacy despite laws like California's Consumer Privacy Act. Over 30 brokers were found hiding data deletion instructions from Google search results using specific code, creating barriers for consumers trying to opt out of data collection. This intentional obfuscation frustrates privacy rights and weakens legislative protections.Android pKVM Security Certification: Android's protected Kernel-based Virtual Machine (pKVM) earned SESIP Level 5 certification, the first software security solution for consumer electronics to achieve this standard. Designed to resist sophisticated attackers, pKVM enables secure handling of sensitive tasks like on-device AI processing, setting a new benchmark for consistent, verifiable security across Android devices.VPN Open-Source Code Significance: VP.NET's decision to open-source its Intel SGX enclave code on GitHub enhances transparency in privacy technology. By allowing public verification, users can confirm the code running on servers matches the open-source version, fostering trust and accountability. This move could set a new standard for the VPN and privacy tech industry, encouraging others to prioritize verifiable privacy claims.

EP 256. Freshly Phished this week...A study with thousands of test subjects showed phishing training has minimal impact on scam detection. The results are surprisingly underwhelming.A hacker exploited a carmaker's web portal to access customer data and unlock vehicles remotely. The breach exposed major vulnerabilities.Russian hackers took control of a Norwegian dam, releasing water undetected for hours. The cyber-attack raises serious concerns and water levels.Illinois banned AI in mental health therapy, joining states regulating chatbots. The move addresses the growing safety concerns of AI and its crazy responses.Proton is relocating infrastructure from Switzerland due to proposed surveillance laws. The privacy-focused firm is taking bold steps and getting closer to the source of rakfisk.Data brokers are evading California's privacy laws by concealing opt-out pages. This tactic blocks consumers from protecting their data.Android's pKVM earned elite SESIP Level 5 security certification for virtual machines. The technology sets a new standard for device security, but what does it mean and what does it do?The UK abandoned its push to force Apple to unlock iCloud backups after privacy disputes. The decision followed intense negotiations with the U.S..VP.NET released its source code for public verification, enhancing trust in privacy tech. A move that sets a new transparency benchmark.​Let's hit the water!Find the full transcript to the podcast here.

In this episode, I discuss the challenges facing privacy-focused payment solutions like Privacy.com, exploring alternatives and the troubling rise of KYC requirements across the industry. I dive deep into the Switzerland privacy crisis that's forcing Proton to consider relocating their infrastructure, and what this means for encrypted email providers globally. I also cover the catastrophic security failure at Tea, a women's safety app that exposed 72,000 images including government IDs through basic incompetence, leading to harassment campaigns on 4chan.I wrap up with thoughts on vehicle tracking through DCM/Telematics modules, why buying older vehicles might be the better privacy-conscious choice, and how embracing the stoic lifestyle aligns with both privacy and my own philosophical principles.In this week's episode:Privacy.com troubles: Account freezes, limited alternatives, and the KYC nightmareSwitzerland's surveillance crisis: Why Proton is threatening to leave and relocating to Germany/NorwayEmail provider comparison: Proton vs Tutanota vs Atomic Mail, and understanding intelligence alliancesTea app breach: How 72,000 IDs and 1.1 million private messages ended up on 4chanVehicle tracking: DCM modules, telematics, and why your car is spying on youPhilosophy of privacy: Stoicism, minimalism, and why less is moreMatrix Community RoomsMatrix Community Space - https://matrix.to/#/#psysecure:matrix.orgIndividual Room Links:https://matrix.to/#/#lockdown-general:matrix.orghttps://matrix.to/#/#lockdown-podcast:matrix.orghttps://matrix.to/#/#lockdown-intro:matrix.orgShow Links:Privacy.com - https://privacy.comCloaked.com - https://cloaked.comProton Warrant Canary - https://protonvpn.com/blog/transparency-report/Climate Activist Arrest - https://proton.me/blog/climate-activist-arrest and https://www.wired.com/story/protonmail-amends-policy-after-giving-up-activists-data/Tuta Crypt - https://tuta.com/documents/tuta-crypt-spec.pdfProton elliptic curve cryptography - https://proton.me/blog/elliptic-curve-cryptographySimpleLogin - https://simplelogin.ioHashiCorp Vault - https://www.vaultproject.ioRAM IS SPYING ON YOU (Cozy Living Machine) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-Y1SUSRqNUMeditations by Marcus Aurelius - https://www.amazon.com/Meditations-New-Translation-Modern-Library-ebook/dp/B000FC1JAI“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.”- Marcus Aurelius ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

In this episode of CAREER-VIEW MIRROR, we're celebrating the career to date of Paul Ripley.Paul Ripley is one of the UK's most experienced and decorated advanced driving coaches, with a 45-year career dedicated to helping people drive more skilfully, more safely—and with more enjoyment. Nicknamed “God's Chauffeur” by The Daily Telegraph, Paul has worked with top global manufacturers including Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Porsche, and Rolls-Royce, and has appeared as the “Driving Doctor” on Channel 4's Driven.His story began in Leeds, where he left school at 15 to pursue a career in music. He played professionally as a drummer, performed at iconic venues like the Royal Albert Hall, and went on to build and sell a successful amplifier business—funding the Ferrari that sparked his next career chapter.In our conversation, we talk about Paul's journey from working-class roots and musical ambition to becoming a trusted advisor on road safety, a weekly columnist for The Telegraph, and a globally respected coach of high-performance drivers. He shares his philosophy of mindset over mechanics, and why emotional stability, self-reflection, and attitude matter more than raw speed behind the wheel.Paul's story is one of ownership, mastery, and making a meaningful impact—not just in driving, but in how we approach performance in life.Connect with PaulLinkedInEmail: info@paulripley.coWebsiteIndustry accreditations:DVSA ADI, DIA Diploma Di, RoSPA ADA Gold, MDG Gold Level, RoSPA ADA Teaching Diploma, C&G 730 Diploma, Diamond Advanced Test, High Performance Course, MDG Diploma, IAM, Mercedes-Benz Performance Driving Masters (Melsheim),DVSA Grade One Advanced Cardington Test, MDG Masters (Human Factors), Royal Carmen of London, Diploma (Royal Logistics Corps), Performance Coaching Diploma (SJW). Awards:HRH Prince Michael Special Road Safety AwardBRAKE - Best Driver Safety Innovation Award 2018BRAKE - Best Fleet Driver Safety Product 2019Business Car Techies Award 2018WebFleet Best Product Innovation Partner 2019Author of the Acclaimed Book ‘Expert Driving' Paul provides ExpertConsultancy Services for:UK Dept of Transport, DVSA, RoSPA, UK Police Forces, IMS, BP Chemicals, Cosworth, Daily Telegraph, EVO Magazine,Auto Express / Autovia, Ricardo,  Mercedes-Benz, Lotus Engineering, RoadSafe, Volvo UK, BMW, Porsche, Audi, AMG, Hyundai South Korea, Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Chevrolet, VW, Nissan, Pirelli, Caterham, Toyota, Prodrive, Proton, Caterham, BCAA Canada, FTA, Bridgestone Tyres, AA Magazine, Shell, Webfleet, The Driving Doctor, Dunlop Suspension, Roll Royce Engineering, Mascotech, TWR Engineering, Mitsubishi etc/. About AndyI'm a business leader, coach, and the creator of the Fulfilling Performance framework—designed to help people bring more of themselves to what they do and experience greater fulfilment and performance as a result.Learn more about Fulfilling PerformanceCheck out Release the Handbrake!

OpenAI has released a new economic analysis showcasing the extensive impact of its AI tools, particularly ChatGPT, on productivity across various sectors. The report reveals that over half a billion people globally utilize OpenAI's AI tools, with a significant portion of users in the U.S. reporting that they use ChatGPT for work. However, a survey indicates that many employees feel pressured to adopt AI tools despite lacking confidence in their usage, raising concerns about the actual productivity gains versus the pressure to conform to employer expectations.In the realm of enterprise technology, Kindrel has introduced the Kindrel Agentic AI framework, aimed at facilitating the deployment of AI in secure environments. This initiative comes in response to the growing adoption of generative AI technologies. Kindrel's framework is designed to enhance operational efficiency and address critical issues such as bias and security, particularly in sectors like banking and government. This move highlights the importance of delivering tangible outcomes rather than merely promoting the hype surrounding AI.Dedicated servers are experiencing a resurgence as organizations seek to meet performance and compliance requirements. A recent survey indicates that a significant majority of IT professionals are utilizing dedicated servers, particularly in sectors like government and finance. This trend reflects a strategic shift towards hybrid infrastructure, where businesses are increasingly recognizing the value of dedicated resources for specific workloads, rather than relying solely on public cloud solutions.Proton has launched a privacy-focused AI chatbot named Lumo, which emphasizes user privacy by storing data locally and employing zero-access encryption. This initiative contrasts with offerings from larger tech companies that often exploit user data. Additionally, Kaseya has introduced an AI-powered workflow generator to enhance automation for managed service providers, while Malwarebytes has integrated a new email security module to combat sophisticated email threats. These developments underscore the growing importance of automation and privacy in the tech landscape, providing opportunities for service providers to differentiate themselves in a competitive market. Three things to know today 00:00 OpenAI's scale, worker pressure to adopt AI, vendor risk blind spots05:43 Liquid Web reports rising dedicated server spend—MSPs must guide smart workload placement, not a full retreat from cloud08:22 Kaseya, Malwarebytes, StorX, NinjaOne, and Inforcer all launch moves to help MSPs automate, secure, and scale13:06 AppleCare One is a masterclass in “sticky” support—can your plans deliver the same seamless value?  This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship   Tell us about a newsletter!https://bit.ly/biztechnewsletter All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

First up in the news: Linux hits 5%, Nintendo does what we feared, The orange baby eats a TACO, Steam prefers Proton to Native, Fedora might have killed Bazzite and a new Firefox release We also welcome Charles as a new co-host! In security and privacy: more password leakage by big tech And finally, the Feedback and a couple of suggestions

video: https://youtu.be/h-qXWfz_yew Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have a huge milestone to celebrate with Linux hitting the coveted 5% market share for desktops in the US market. Then we got a few gaming topics to cover including one about game preservation and anti-cheats. Then we are going to take a look at a project to keep X11 window managers around for good. Later in the show we'll check out some new releases including a lightweight window manager called IceWM. All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and Open Source world.

Microsoft's latest round of layoffs hits Xbox Gaming hard as the company cuts approximately 9,000 jobs despite record profits. This week, Paul Thurrott and Richard Campbell discuss the impact of these layoffs, Windows 11's new version naming, Microsoft Copilot coming to Mac, and dive deep into passkey security. LAYOFFS As expected, Microsoft began a massive round of layoffs across Xbox/Microsoft Gaming on Wednesday. The fiscal year started on Tuesday. These were originally going to happen a week or two earlier. 9,000 employees impacted across Microsoft - about 4 percent of workforce, Xbox/MSGaming was NOT hit hardest, Microsoft now says (on top of 6,000 in May). 10 percent of King being laid off. Carefully worded email from Phil Spencer requires some parsing. It's Finally Official: 25H2 Is Next! Microsoft finally admits that the Dev channel is testing Windows 11 version 25H2, which will arrive, as expected, around October This news came as part of another set of commingled Dev and Beta channel builds. 25H2 will be delivered as an enablement package, so it's a minor release technically. Dev and Beta are linked because 25H2 and 24H2 are linked: Each will get the same features, as started with 22H2/23H2 in late 2023. Windows 11 Last week was Week D, but we didn't get preview updates per usual before WW That finally happened last Thursday - new preview updates for 24H2 and 23H2/22H2 24H2: Click to Do improvements, start of PC migration in Windows Backup, small icons in Taskbar, more. Windows Insider Preview: Those Dev/Beta builds noted above have the first implementation of third-party passkey. Microsoft Edge 138 is a pretty big update, with AI-enhanced history search and Copilot integration into the search box and new tab page. AI Microsoft 365 Copilot is available on the Mac. Apple may cave and adopt Anthropic Claude and/or OpenAI ChatGPT for Apple Intelligence. After Coda's acquisition and $1 billion in funding, Grammarly acquires Superhuman to build an "AI-native" productivity suite that will take on Big Tech (Microsoft, Google) and Little Tech (Notion, Proton) alike. Xbox and Gaming Xbox 360 dashboard is getting its first update in years. Halo Studios teases an October tease of the next Halo from the studio. New Game Pass titles for the first half of July - plus, COD: WWII turns up in Game Pass for the first time. Cursor sort of comes to the web and mobile - like Adobe Firefly on mobile, but for devs when "the mood strikes". Tips and Picks Tip/App picks of the week: Cure Mac envy. The Mac is about to get even prettier. But Windows 11 can rise to this challenge. The PC matters: Paul recommends Surface Laptop 7 as a MacBook Air alternative. Software? It's all free. Full screen apps: Hide the Taskbar and touchpad gestures - also, use DS Clock if you need to see the time. Transparent system menu? You can make the Taskbar transparent too. Want Spotlight? No problem, we have Command Palette (an updated, more extensible PowerToys Run) in PowerToys. Bonus app pick: Inoreader for RSS feeds (and read later if you want).
