Podcasts about ransomware attacks

Ransomware attacks have surged dramatically, particularly affecting small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs), which now experience ransomware in 88% of breaches. According to Verizon's 2025 data breach investigations report, ransomware was detected in 44% of over 12,000 data breaches, marking a 37% increase from the previous year. While the number of organizations paying ransoms has decreased, the FBI's report indicates that complaints related to ransom have risen by 9%, making it the top threat to critical infrastructure. The overall online crime losses surged by 33% in 2024, totaling $16 billion, with investment fraud linked to cryptocurrency accounting for the most significant financial losses.A recent report from KeepAware highlights the security risks associated with employee use of web browsers in the workplace, revealing that over 70% of modern malware attacks originate from these unmonitored endpoints. Traditional security tools are ineffective at detecting threats within browsers, leading to increased vulnerabilities. Key findings show that 70% of phishing campaigns impersonate trusted platforms, and a significant portion of file uploads from company devices are directed to personal accounts without detection. This raises concerns about the basic security hygiene that many SMBs still lack, such as multi-factor authentication and unpatched systems.Microsoft has announced a shift towards passwordless accounts by default, emphasizing the need for improved security practices. This change comes in light of significant security breaches, including one involving Defense Secretary Pete Hedgeseth, whose reuse of passwords across multiple accounts raised concerns about national security. Microsoft has dedicated substantial resources to strengthen its systems post-breach, migrating cryptographic keys and eliminating outdated systems. However, the underlying issue of human negligence remains a critical challenge, as advanced technology cannot compensate for poor decision-making and lack of user training.Enable reported its first quarter 2025 results, showcasing a revenue of $118.2 million, reflecting a 3.9% year-over-year growth. Despite exceeding revenue guidance, the company experienced a net loss of $7.2 million, raising concerns about market saturation and pricing pressure in the managed services software ecosystem. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding the dynamics of the MSP market, where churn is sticky and expansion is slow. As the podcast concludes, listeners are encouraged to reflect on the implications of geopolitical and trade policies on tech supply chains and the necessity of modernizing security practices to mitigate risks Four things to know today 00:00 Ransomware, Browser Risks, and Record Losses: 2025 Security Reports Point to a Failure of Fundamentals04:11 Password Reuse, Passkey Hype, and Microsoft's Security Reckoning: What the Latest Breaches Reveal About Culture and Complexity07:49 Durable But Not Disruptive: N-able's Q1 Results Reflect Sluggish MSP Software Growth and Operational Pressure11:53 Tariffs, Tech Gaps, and Legal Risks: The Hidden Pressures Facing U.S. SMBs and Security Leaders Supported by:  https://afi.ai/office-365-backup/ All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Japanese police have received 222 reports of damage from ransomware attacks in 2024, up 25 from the previous year, National Police Agency data showed Thursday.

2025 brings us close to an interesting milestone - ransomware attacks, in their current, enterprise-focused form, are almost a decade old. These attacks are so common today, it's impossible to report on all of them. There are signs of hope, however - ransomware payments are significantly down. There are also signs defenders are getting more resilient, and are recovering more quickly from these attacks. Today, with Intel471's Mike Mitchell, we'll discuss what defenders need to know to protect against today's ransomware attacks. He'll share some stories and anecdotes from his experiences with customers. He'll also share some tips, and tricks for successful hunts, and how to catch attacks before even your tools trigger alerts. Segment Resources: https://intel471.com/blog/how-ransomware-may-trend-in-2025 And now, for something completely different! I've always urged the importance for practitioners to understand the underlying technology that they're challenged with defending. When we're yelling at the Linux admins and DevOps folks to "just patch it", what does that process entail? How do those patches get applied? When and how are they released in the first place? This is often one of the sticking points when security folks get nervous about "going open source", as if 90% of the code in their environments doesn't already come from some open source project. It's a legitimate concern however - without a legal contract, and some comfort level that a paid support team is actually going to fix critical vulnerabilities, how do we develop trust or a relationship with an open source project? In this interview, benny Vasquez, the Chair of the board of directors for AlmaLinux, will fill in some of the gaps for us, and help us understand how an open source project can not only be trusted, but in many cases may be more responsive to security teams' needs than a commercial vendor.

A new survey from leading Irish IT managed services provider Auxilion reveals that data loss/theft and ransomware/malware attacks were the cybersecurity concerns most cited by IT leaders when it comes to the cloud - at 30% respectively. The research, carried out by Censuswide and involving IT decision-makers across large enterprises in the Republic of Ireland, found that 40% of respondents see IT security risks as a main concern associated with adopting and managing cloud computing. A similar proportion (42%) said that the changing cybersecurity landscape was one of the biggest obstacles to the successful delivery of their IT strategy. Moreover, one in four (26%) IT leaders in Ireland do not think current laws and regulations are sufficient to protect privacy, access, and confidentiality in a cloud-based environment. Adding to this, almost a quarter (24%) of IT decision-makers surveyed who are currently using the cloud do not think their own organisation has sufficient capabilities to manage cloud computing and more than a third of those respondents admitted to having little or no visibility of their workloads in the cloud (36%). Despite this, some 83% consider cloud to be a more secure approach for their organisation. It appears that IT leaders are being proactive in this area with 83% also having a cloud security strategy in place and 73% currently using a technology partner to manage their cloud strategy and services. The study also found that the shift to cloud is set to continue with nearly all respondents (96%) expecting to migrate more workloads, applications, and processes to the cloud over the next 12 months. On October 9th, Auxilion, HPE and Zerto will be holding an event hosted by broadcaster Ivan Yates to discuss the increased need for robust data protection, cloud security, and business continuity capabilities. Donal Sullivan, CTO, Auxilion, said: "While the cybersecurity landscape is constantly evolving, organisations are facing an even bigger uphill battle at the moment with the rise of threats enabled by Artificial Intelligence and the introduction of the European-wide NIS2 regulation in October. "This means businesses not only need to be more proactive when it comes to securing their data and responding to incidents, they also need to ensure that they are meeting their compliance and regulatory obligations. This requires the right technologies and partners that can support security, mobility and scalability. "The truth is that in this day and age, resilience and recovery are as important as detection and prevention when it comes to cybersecurity. Businesses which fail to recognise this and adapt their strategy could be at risk operationally, reputationally and financially." Chris Rogers, Senior Technology Evangelist, Zerto, said: "Rapid recovery from a cyber incident is more than a reactive measure - it's a critical component of a resilient and forward-thinking business strategy. The ability to swiftly bounce back from disruptions not only minimises downtime but also safeguards reputation, customer trust, and bottom line. "The real competitive edge lies in turning these challenges into opportunities for growth and innovation, and partnering with experts to unlock advanced cyber resilience capabilities can significantly accelerate an organisation's journey to cyber maturity."

Gita Sjahrir, Head of Investment at BNI Ventures, and Jeremy Au discussed: 1. 200% China Import Tariffs: Jeremy and Gita explored Indonesia's recent imposition of up to 200% tariffs on Chinese imports like footwear, clothing, textiles, cosmetics, and ceramics. Indonesia's trade minister's remarks "I told my colleagues not to be afraid or hesitant. America can impose tariffs of up to 200 percent on ceramics and clothing; we can too" show that America is serving as a role model for further trade decoupling and is no longer a champion for free trade. They discussed the rationale of "protecting MSMES" - with varied impacts on different sizes and types of local businesses. Gita highlighted Indonesia's historical tendency towards protectionism and the broader implications of such policies on the country's business environment. Jeremy and Gita agreed that while tariffs might provide short-term relief, they do not address the underlying systemic problems around industrial policy or "ease of business" reforms. 2. Ransomware Attacks on 282 Agencies: Jeremy and Gita discussed the recent ransomware attack that compromised the data of millions of Indonesian citizens. Gita explained that hackers held government data hostage and later returned the key due to the government's unpreparedness. She mentioned that ministers and heads of security showed a lack of responsibility and accountability, which highlights the urgent need for improved cybersecurity measures. Gita and Jeremy also discussed the broader implications of such lapses on public trust and governance. They emphasized the importance of having knowledgeable leaders in charge of technology and security to prevent future breaches. 3. 27,000+ Government Apps Consolidation: Jeremy and Gita touched on the Indonesian government's initiative to consolidate over 27,000 government apps into a more efficient system. President Jokowi's directive aimed to reduce redundancy and improve cybersecurity. Gita mentioned that one ministry alone could have over 500 apps, and the government spent around $386 million in the past year creating new apps. They explained that the consolidation effort is intended to streamline operations and enhance security by reducing the surface area vulnerable to attacks. They also discussed the challenges of implementing such a consolidation and the resistance from those benefiting from the current inefficiencies. They emphasized the importance of political will and effective communication in driving these large-scale changes. They also added that the agency responsible for this initiative would be called GovTech Indonesia, similar to Singapore's successful model. Jeremy and Gita also discussed the potential relocation of Chinese companies to Indonesia, Indonesia's private sector's resilience despite governmental challenges, the need for cybersecurity improvements following recent data breaches, and strategies for reducing bureaucratic red tape to foster a better business environment.

In this episode we are looking at why people are moving away from Virtual Private Networks, or VPNs, and are navigating towards Zero Trust Network Access, or ZTNAs.VPNs have largely been unchallenged as the go-to cyber security option for organisations since they first came about in the mid-1990s. However, they do have security flaws which have been exploited by hackers and cyber criminals, leading many to ask whether there's a more secure solution.Joining us to discuss why ZTNA is becoming a more popular security option for organisations is Jaye Tillson, HPE's Director of Strategy in Cyber Security.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.
