Two sophisticated ransomware groups, Akira and Lynx, are increasingly targeting managed service providers (MSPs) and small businesses by exploiting stolen credentials and vulnerabilities. Together, they have compromised over 365 organizations, with Akira targeting major firms like Hitachi Vantara and Lynx focusing on critical infrastructure, including a CBS affiliate in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Both groups utilize double extortion tactics, combining file encryption with data theft to pressure victims into paying ransoms. This shift in tactics highlights the evolving threat landscape for MSPs and small businesses.In response to the growing cybersecurity threats, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has released Thorium, an open-source platform designed for malware and forensic analysis. Thorium can automate tasks and process over 10 million files per hour, empowering IT professionals without in-house malware analysis capabilities to conduct effective preliminary analyses. This tool aims to enhance cybersecurity operations and better manage risks associated with complex malware threats.Additionally, SonicWall has issued a warning to its customers to disable SSL Virtual Private Network (VPN) services due to active ransomware attacks targeting its systems. Meanwhile, Google's AI-powered bug hunter, Big Sleep, has identified 20 security vulnerabilities in popular open-source software, raising concerns about the reliability of AI-generated bug reports. A newly discovered prompt injection vulnerability in Google's Gemini AI chatbot poses serious security risks, enabling attackers to craft convincing phishing campaigns without relying on links or attachments.The podcast also discusses the alarming rise in cybersecurity incidents, particularly social engineering attacks, which have tripled in the first half of 2025. A report from Level Blue indicates that social engineering now accounts for 39% of initial access incidents, with fake CAPTCHA schemes rising dramatically. Furthermore, the report highlights the risks associated with unauthorized AI tool usage, revealing that 97% of organizations lack adequate access controls, exposing sensitive data to potential threats. This underscores the need for organizations to strengthen their defenses and educate users on emerging threats. Four things to know today00:00 Attackers Up Their Game: Ransomware Hits MSPs, SonicWall Vulnerable, and Google's AI Found Exploitable05:53 Social Engineering Surges as Shadow AI Breaches Drive Up Cyber Costs and Risk Exposure08:35 Neglected Tech, Rising Risk: Email and Printers Still Expose Businesses to Modern Threats11:04 From Ransomware to Retirements: Vendor Shifts Reveal Risks and Realignment in the IT Channel This is the Business of Tech.     Supported by:  https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship https://getflexpoint.com/msp-radio/ 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?
