Ransomware gang busted in Ukraine by international operation North Texas water utility hit with cyberattack Former Uber CISO speaks out after 6-year silence Huge thanks to our sponsor, SpyCloud SpyCloud has discovered that infostealer malware infections are an early warning signal for ransomware. In fact, nearly a third of ransomware victim companies this year were infected with infostealer malware like Raccoon, Vidar or Redline before they were attacked. Are you thinking about infostealers as a precursor to ransomware? SpyCloud believes that knowing what criminals have stolen from your managed, unmanaged and undermanaged infected machines is step one to stopping ransomware attacks. Get SpyCloud's new research on this topic and check your company's exposure from malware infections at spycloud.com/ciso. For the stories behind the headlines, visit CISOseries.com.
There's been a lot of newness in my business and life lately, so I want to anchor in with those of you who've been with me for a while (some of you, a decade!) and to add some BTS to all of you coming into this little corner of the universe. First up: THANK YOU. I don't take one click or sign up or listen for granted. Honestly I'm always amazed when people show up to things. Gigs, classes, I just feel really honored and useful. And having 4 planets in Virgo, UTILITY is a very big deal for me. Next: I thought that I'd do an episode about something short n' sweet and tending to the deep. Me.
International AI agreement PA water utility hit by cyberattack Ukraine claims cyber attack against Russian aviation Huge thanks to our sponsor, SpyCloud Our sponsor today, SpyCloud, wants us to pay attention to a ransomware precursor that's not being talked about enough: infostealer malware. If you think you're covered by endpoint protection and anti-virus solutions, think again. The SpyCloud team discovered that the presence of infostealers including Racoon, Vidar, and Redline on machines accessing work applications may indicate a likely future ransomware attack. They believe the first step in thwarting ransomware lies in knowing the data criminals have stolen from malware-infected systems and remediating it quickly. Get SpyCloud's new research and check your malware exposure at spycloud.com/ciso.

Your wine club members are more than just wine enthusiasts – they're YOUR WINE'S enthusiasts! They are invested in and have a personal connection with your brand. Welcome to Marketing Tip Monday with SIP Certified. We know customers are looking for wines labeled as sustainable. While our longer-form episodes help you learn about the latest science and research for the wine industry, these twice-monthly micro podcasts will help you share your dedication to sustainable winegrowing so you can show your customers that you share their values. Newsletters invite your members to form an even deeper affinity with your brand. It's an opportunity to share your brand's history, current projects, and behind-the-scenes details that aren't available through other channels. Need Content? You Got It! A multi-page newsletter gives you more space to work with. While the idea of having several pages to fill and decorate can be exciting to some, others may be intimidated by the task. Being a brand that's passionate about sustainability means you always have something to talk about. Having a handful of Sustainable Stories on deck can be a great asset to your newsletter! SIP Tip: Adjust the amount of detail you go into to fit the space you have. For longer pieces, consider breaking them up into serials. Today we will share two examples of SIP Certified members whose newsletters feature their dedication to sustainability in engaging ways. There are some great images to go along with these, so I highly recommend going to the show notes and clicking on The Best Newsletter You Can Send. Ancient Peaks Ancient Peaks invites their members to understand their deep relationship with the land and their community through their May 2021 newsletter's Feature Story, For the Love of Land & Community. The article shows how and why Ancient Peaks embodies sustainability through colorful photos and specific examples that touch all 7 SIP Certified Values. A QR code on page 4 of the excerpt transforms this newsletter into a multi-media experience! Readers can scan the code to watch a thoughtful explanation from the ranch's owner, Doug Filipponi, on what sustainability is and how they address all three legs of the three-legged stool. Niner Wine Estates Their Spring 2023 newsletter opens with A Note from Winemaker Patrick Muran, giving readers the sense that their shipment was crafted with love and devotion from the entire team at Niner Wine Estates. After providing a rundown of the wines included in their shipment, Niner announces their 2023 Green Medal Sustainability Leadership Award. They explain what the award is, and provide several specific examples of their sustainable practices. Several members of Niner's team are featured in the newsletter, giving it a personable feel and inviting readers to become familiar with the faces behind the wine. More Tips As you saw from these two examples, there are many ways to create a newsletter that's unique and authentic to your brand. Here are three elements both of these examples have in common: Sustainability: Thoughtful “whys” and descriptive “hows” invite your readers to: Make a deeper connection with your brand. Better understand what it means to be sustainable. Teamwork: Quotes and opinions from team members: Give your newsletter a personable feel. Familiarize your readers with your team. Food and Wine: Pairing notes and recipes specific to the wines included in your shipment give: Utility to your readers. A reason to keep your newsletter around for longer! What's YOUR Sustainable Story? We are here to help you tell your customers how your brand protects natural and human resources with the Sustainable Story program. This simple yet powerful free tool helps you tell your own personal sustainable message. And it just got better with a new online course. Go to the show notes, click the link titled Tell Your Sustainable Story to sign up, download the worksheet, watch the videos, and you are ready to tell your Sustainable Story! We hope you've enjoyed learning about how your peers fulfill the 7 SIP Certified Values as much as we've enjoyed sharing them! Your story can be featured in next year's Sustainable Stories campaign! We are looking for a brand with an innovative approach to one of these three Values.: Water Management Safe Pest Management Energy Efficiency If you have a great Sustainable Story, we will help you tell it.

In this special edition direct from the North American Car of the Year announcement at the Los Angeles Auto Show, Host Jack Nerad and frequent Guest Host Matty DeLorenzo take incisive looks at the vehicles that made it to the next round -- and those that didn't. Nerad is vice president of the North American Car of the Year jury. DeLorenzo has served on the jury for decades. Each year, the 50-member jury of renowned industry experts evaluates all the new-to-the-market vehicles to determine which three special vehicles deserve the title North American Car of the Year, North American Truck of the Year, and North American Utility Vehicle of the Year. This year's competition is especially grueling because it pits battery-electrics against hybrids and conventionally powered vehicles. From full-size heavy-duty pickups to subcompact cars, the field is crammed with fascinating shapes and leading-edge tech. After weighing the positives and negatives of each vehicle in real-world driving, the NACTOY jurors cast their votes in a secret ballot audited by Deloitte. The three top vote-getters in each category are then named the Finalists for the prestigious awards. In this special report, DeLorenzo and Nerad will offer their opinions on each of the nine Finalists and share their thoughts on which could -- and perhaps should -- win in each category. And they'll also give their opinions on why some potential favorites in the field -- cars like the 2024 Ford Mustang and the 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray -- didn't make the cut. The following is a complete list of the 2024 North American Car of the Year, Truck of the Year, and Utility of the Year Finalists followed by a list of the semi-finalists that have been eliminated from the competition. See if you agree with the jury's results. 2024 North American Car of the Year Finalists Honda Accord Hyundai Ioniq 6 Toyota Prius/Prius Prime 2024 North American Truck of the Year Finalists Chevrolet Colorado Chevrolet Silverado EV Ford Super Duty 2024 North American Utility Vehicle of the Year Finalists Genesis Electrified GV70 Kia EV9 Volvo EX30 The Semi-Finalists Eliminated from the Competition BMW 5 Series BMW i5 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray Ford Mustang Subaru Impreza Toyota Crown Toyota GR Corolla GMC Canyon Chevrolet Blazer EV Dodge Hornet Honda Pilot Hyundai Kona Mazda CX90 Toyota Grand Highlander
