At Black Hat USA 2025, Sean Martin, co-founder of ITSPmagazine, sat down with Brett Stone-Gross, Senior Director of Threat Intelligence at Zscaler, to discuss the findings from the company's latest ransomware report. Over the past five years, the research has tracked how attack patterns, targets, and business models have shifted—most notably from file encryption to data theft and extortion.Brett explains that many ransomware groups now find it more profitable—and less risky—to steal sensitive data and threaten to leak it unless paid, rather than encrypt files and disrupt operations. This change also allows attackers to stay out of the headlines and avoid immediate law enforcement pressure, while still extracting massive payouts. One case saw a Fortune 50 company pay $75 million to prevent the leak of 100 terabytes of sensitive medical data—without a single file being encrypted.The report highlights variation in attacker methods. Some groups focus on single large targets; others, like the group “LOP,” exploit vulnerabilities in widely used file transfer applications, making supply chain compromise a preferred tactic. Once inside, attackers validate their claims by providing file trees and sample data—proving the theft is real.Certain industries remain disproportionately affected. Healthcare, manufacturing, and technology are perennial top targets, with oil and gas seeing a sharp increase this year. Many victims operate with legacy systems, slow to adopt modern security measures, making them vulnerable. Geographically, the U.S. continues to be hit hardest, accounting for roughly half of all observed ransomware incidents.The conversation also addresses why organizations fail to detect such massive data theft—sometimes hundreds of gigabytes per day over weeks. Poor monitoring, limited security staffing, and alert fatigue all contribute. Brett emphasizes that reducing exposure starts with eliminating unnecessary internet-facing services and embracing zero trust architectures to prevent lateral movement.The ransomware report serves not just as a data source but as a practical guide. By mapping observed attacker behaviors to defensive strategies, organizations can better identify and close their most dangerous gaps—before becoming another statistic in next year's findings.Learn more about Zscaler: https://itspm.ag/zscaler-327152Note: This story contains promotional content.

How does a particle physicist end up shaping the UK Government's approach to artificial intelligence? In this thought‑provoking episode, Andrew Grill sits down with Dr Laura Gilbert CBE, former Director of Data Science at 10 Downing Street and now the Senior Director of AI at the Tony Blair Institute.Laura's unique career path, from academic research in physics to the heart of policymaking, gives her a rare perspective on how governments can use emerging technologies not just efficiently, but humanely. She shares candid insights into how policy teams think about digital transformation, why the public sector faces very different challenges to private industry, and how to avoid technology that dehumanises decision‑making.Drawing on examples from her work in Whitehall, Laura discusses the realities of forecasting in AI, the danger of “buzzword chasing”, and why the next breakthrough in Artificial General Intelligence might well come from an unexpected player, possibly from within government itself.This is a conversation for anyone curious about the intersection of science, policy, ethics, and technology, and how they can combine to make government more responsive, transparent, and human-centred.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeHow Laura Gilbert moved from particle physics research into government AI leadershipThe strategic role of AI in shaping modern policy and public servicesWhy forecasting in AI is harder than it looks—and how this impacts decision‑makersThe balance between technical capability and human‑centred governanceWhy governments must look beyond the tech giants for innovative solutionsLessons from the Evidence House and AI for Public Good programmesResourcesTony Blair Global Institute WebsiteUK Government AI IncubatorLaura on LinkedInRaindrop.io bookmarking appThanks for listening to Digitally Curious.

In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Steve Corbesero, Jr., Senior Director of Products and Solutions at MachineQ, a Comcast Company, about the findings from their new Lab of the Future survey. Conducted with Censuswide, the study gathered insights from more than 400 U.S.-based lab professionals, revealing both the opportunities and persistent pain points shaping modern laboratory operations. Steve unpacks why nearly 60% of labs still face unplanned downtime from equipment failures, missed calibration schedules, and asset location issues. We discuss how manual monitoring remains the norm for over half of labs surveyed, and why 14% have no monitoring system in place at all. Despite these challenges, there's a clear appetite for change, with 85% planning to adopt IoT solutions and 87% intending to integrate AI and machine learning into their workflows over the next two years. Our conversation explores the operational impact of disconnected systems, the risks of relying on spreadsheets, and the role of real-time monitoring in preventing costly disruptions. Steve shares practical examples of how IoT and AI are already helping labs shift from reactive to proactive management, from anomaly detection that reduces alert fatigue to intelligent data summaries that give lab managers actionable insights without hours of manual analysis. We also talk about the barriers holding some labs back from adoption, including pilot purgatory, budget constraints, and integration challenges. Steve offers his perspective on how future-ready labs will differentiate themselves—by embracing connected infrastructure, unifying data, and embedding AI into both scientific and operational workflows. If you want to understand what's really happening inside modern labs, and how emerging technology can transform efficiency, productivity, and innovation, this episode offers a clear, data-backed view of the road ahead.

In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I chat with Andy Wilson, Senior Director at Dropbox, to explore how AI is quietly but fundamentally changing how we work. Andy offers a deep dive into Dropbox Dash, an AI-powered search and knowledge management tool designed to cut through digital noise and reclaim the one thing most professionals are running out of: time. We unpack how Dash is solving the growing problem of content sprawl by integrating with over 60 SaaS platforms, offering AI-driven answers instead of just links. Andy describes it best: the internet lets you search all of human knowledge, but good luck finding that one deck from last quarter in your company's Google Drive. Dash aims to fix that. And it's already doing so for teams like McLaren F1, who use the platform to coordinate high-stakes race weekends with precision and security. We also discuss how Dropbox is adopting AI internally, from the acquisition of Reclaim.ai to enhancing virtual-first collaboration with intelligent scheduling and governance tools. For Dropbox, AI isn't a novelty. It's becoming the backbone of how distributed teams work better together. Andy likens it to having a personalized chief of staff, helping you prioritize, organize, and even remind you when to take a break. Our conversation also touches on Andy's creative roots at the BBC and Aardman, and how those experiences shaped his product thinking today. He shares real examples of how Dropbox supports content creators and knowledge workers alike, including feedback tools like Dropbox Replay and user-generated storytelling workflows powered by simple file request features. If you're wrestling with digital overload, managing hybrid teams, or just wondering how AI can actually help without taking over, this episode is for you. Andy paints a grounded, human picture of the future of work, one where AI supports creativity and restores clarity, not chaos.

Emily welcomes a familiar voice back to the podcast, Libby Pritchard, who is now the Senior Director of Sales and Business Development with Specialty Granules. Libby, formerly in a safety and health role with NSSGA, discusses her transition into a sales and business development position and how her perspective on being a safety leader has evolved. She shares powerful insights on how every employee, regardless of their title, can and should be a safety champion. Libby shares her initial feeling of leaving a piece of herself behind when "safety" was no longer in her job title. However, a pivotal conversation with her company's head of safety revealed a new perspective: a "non-safety person" advocating for safety has a unique and powerful influence. This episode explores how to embody safety in any role, the importance of personal stories, and practical strategies for building a robust safety culture where everyone is an active participant. Libby provides tangible examples, from making safety a part of performance goals to the impact of a sales team member actively engaging in refresher training, proving you don't need to be the conductor to lead the orchestra in safety. Main Themes: The transition from a formal safety role to a non-safety position. Embracing the principle that “everyone is a safety person.” How professionals in non-safety roles can powerfully influence an organization's safety culture. The power of personal stories and safety shares in making safety relatable and memorable. Practical strategies for integrating safety leadership into any job function. Building a culture where everyone feels empowered to contribute to safety. The concept of leading safety "from any seat in the orchestra." Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions: In this episode, Libby talks about her transition from a safety role to a sales and business development role. She was reassured that her new perspective carried weight, and she could still make a difference in the organization's safety culture. Why do you think it's important to include everyone's perspectives when it comes to safety? Libby shares about the way that industry professionals who aren't in traditional safety roles can engage with safety on a daily basis. Which of the examples that she shared was your favorite and why? Does anyone have a story they would like to share about how a “non-safety person's” perspective made them think differently about safety? Key Takeaways: "Everyone has a safety story. It's about learning and growing from experiences." "Safety is everyone's job. We can all make an impact, regardless of our role." "Being a 'non-safety' person gives you a unique influence on safety culture." "Safety stories teach better than regulations. Share real-life examples." "Challenge your team to have a safety goal. It builds a strong safety culture." "Talk about safety with customers. You never know where a great idea will come from." "Engaging in training as a non-safety person shows commitment and brings fresh energy." "You don't need to be a safety pro to lead in safety. Lead from any seat in the orchestra." "Safety can be part of any job. We can all make an impact, regardless of our job title."

Florida Farm Bureau, in partnership with UF/IFAS and the Mind Your Melon Foundation, has released its first-ever statewide mental health report—and the findings are deeply personal, alarming, and a call to action.Jaime brings more than just her professional insights to the conversation. Raised on a peanut and cattle farm in Levy County and now raising five children on that same land with her husband, she speaks from the heart—both as a policy advocate and as a woman of faith. Her passion for standing in the gap for farmers who often carry the weight of the world in silence is rooted in her belief that agriculture is more than an industry—it's a mission field.The conversation goes far beyond statistics, touching on hurricanes, financial stress, isolation, and the unique burdens of rural life. Jaime shares her firm belief that faith, prayer, and community can bring healing and strength where it's needed most. She encourages struggling producers to lean on their relationship with God, seek out trusted connections, and remember that telehealth and other support tools are available—and confidential.Chrissy and Jaime also explore the critical role churches, Farm Bureau, and peer-to-peer relationships play in restoring connection and hope to those silently struggling.Learn more and view the full 2025 Mind Your Melon Farmer Wellbeing Survey at: https://www.floridafarmbureau.orgNorth American Ag is devoted to highlighting the people & companies in agriculture who impact our industry and help feed the world.
