"Die stärkste Liga der Welt." Die Handball-Bundesliga (HBL) gilt international als Benchmark - nicht nur in der Organisation, sondern auch in ihrer Vermarktung. In den vergangenen Jahrzehnten hat sich viel verändert, vor allem seit Corona. Das große Ziel bleibt jedoch gleich: Die klare Nummer 1 hinter dem Fußball werden. Doch ist Dyn dafür der richtige Partner? Ein Blick auf die Erlösstruktur zeigt: Medienrechte spielen zwar eine wichtige Rolle, entscheidend bleibt aber das Sponsoring (60 Prozent Anteil am Gesamtumsatz). Während sich diese Verteilung kaum verschiebt, wachsen die Dimensionen deutlich: Der Gesamtumsatz betrug zuletzt 250 Millionen Euro (Plus von fast 11 Prozent). Wie konnte die HBL in den letzten Jahren ihren Umsatz nahezu verdreifachen? Wann ist die Umsatzmilliarde realistisch in Reichweite? Und welche Rolle wird KI im Ligabetrieb künftig spielen?

Happy Friday, everyone! Congrats on making it through another week, and what a week it was. This week I had some big topics, so I ran out of time for the positive use-case, but I'll fit it in next week.Here's a quick rundown of the topics with more detail below. First, Meta had an AI policy doc lead, and boy did it tell a story while sparking outrage and raising deeper questions about what's really being hardwired into the systems we all use. Then I touch on Geoffrey Hinton, the “Godfather of AI,” and his controversial idea that AI should have maternal instincts. Finally, I dig into the growing wave of toxic work expectations, from 80-hour demands to the exodus of young mothers from the workforce.With that, let's get into it.⸻Looking Beyond the Hype of Meta's Leaked AI Policy GuidelinesA Reuters report exposed Meta's internal guidelines on training AI to respond to sensitive prompts, including “sensual” interactions with children and handling of protected class subjects. People were pissed and rightly so. However, I break down why the real problem isn't the prompts themselves, but the logic being approved behind them. This is much bigger than the optics of some questionable guidelines; it's about illegal reasoning being baked into the foundation of the model.⸻The Godfather of AI Wants “Maternal” MachinesGeoffrey Hinton, one of the pioneers of AI, is popping up everywhere with his suggestion that training AI with motherly instincts is the solution to preventing it from wiping out humanity. Candidly, I think his logic is off for way more reasons than the cringe idea of AI acting like our mommies. I unpack why this framing is flawed, what leaders should actually take away from it, and why we need to move away from solutions that focus on further humanizing AI. It's to stop treating AI like a human in the first place.⸻Unhealthy Work Demands and the Rising Exodus of Young MomsAn AI startup recently gave its employees a shocking ultimatum: work 80 hours a week or leave. What happened to AI eliminating the need for human work? Meanwhile, data shows young mothers are exiting the workforce at troubling rates, completely reversing all the gains we saw during the pandemic. I connect the dots between these headlines, AI's role in rise of unsustainable work expectations, and the long-term damage this entire mindset creates for businesses and society.⸻If this episode was helpful, would you share it with someone? Leave a rating, drop a comment with your thoughts, and follow for future updates that go beyond the headlines and help you lead with clarity in the AI age. And, if you'd take me out for a coffee to say thanks, you can do that here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/christopherlind—Show Notes:In this Weekly Update, Christopher Lind unpacks the disturbing revelations from Meta's leaked AI training docs, challenges Geoffrey Hinton's call for “maternal AI,” and breaks down the growing trend of unsustainable work expectations, especially the impact on mothers in the workforce.Timestamps:00:00 – Introduction and Welcome01:51 – Overview of Today's Topics03:19 – Meta's AI Training Docs Leak27:53 – Geoffrey Hinton and the “Maternal AI” Proposal39:48 – Toxic Work Demands and the Workforce Exodus53:35 – Final Thoughts#AIethics #AIrisks #DigitalLeadership #HumanCenteredAI #FutureOfWork
We're Becoming Dumb and Numb": Why Black Hat 2025's AI Hype Is Killing Cybersecurity -- And Our Ability to Think Random and Unscripted Weekly Update Podcast with Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli__________________SummarySean and Marco dissect Black Hat USA 2025, where every vendor claimed to have "agentic AI" solutions. They expose how marketing buzzwords create noise that frustrates CISOs seeking real value. Marco references the Greek myth of Talos - an ancient AI robot that seemed invincible until one fatal flaw destroyed it - as a metaphor for today's overinflated AI promises. The discussion spirals into deeper concerns: are we becoming too dependent on AI decision-making? They warn about echo chambers, lowest common denominators, and losing our ability to think critically. The solution? Stop selling perfection, embrace product limitations, and keep humans in control. __________________10 Notable QuotesSean:"It's hard for them to siphon the noise. Sift through the noise, I should say, and figure out what the heck is really going on.""If we completely just use it for the easy button, we'll stop thinking and we won't use it as a tool to make things better.""We'll stop thinking and we won't use it as a tool to make our minds better, to make our decisions better.""We are told then that this is the reality. This is what good looks like.""Maybe there's a different way to even look at things. So it's kind of become uniform... a very low common denominator that is just good enough for everybody."Marco:"Do you really wanna trust the weapon to just go and shoot everybody? At least you can tell it's a human factor and that's the people that ultimately decide.""If we don't make decision anymore, we're gonna turn out in a lot of those sci-fi stories, like the time machine where we become dumb.""We all perceive reality to be different from what it is, and then it creates a circular knowledge learning where we use AI to create the knowledge, then to ask the question, then to give the answers.""We're just becoming dumb and numb. More than dumb, but we become numb to everything else because we're just not thinking with our own head.""You're selling the illusion of security and that could be something that then you replicate in other industries." Picture this: You walk into the world's largest cybersecurity conference, and every single vendor booth is screaming the same thing – "agentic AI." Different companies, different products, but somehow they all taste like the same marketing milkshake.That's exactly what Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli witnessed at Black Hat USA 2025, and their latest Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco episode pulls no punches in exposing what's really happening behind the buzzwords."Marketing just took all the cool technology that each vendor had, put it in a blender and made a shake that just tastes the same," Marco reveals on Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco, describing how the conference floor felt like one giant echo chamber where innovation got lost in translation.But this isn't just another rant about marketing speak. The Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco conversation takes a darker turn when Marco introduces the ancient Greek myth of Talos – a bronze giant powered by divine ichor who was tasked with autonomously defending Crete. Powerful, seemingly invincible, until one small vulnerability brought the entire system crashing down.Sound familiar?"Do you really wanna trust the weapon to just go and shoot everybody?" Marco asks, drawing parallels between ancient mythology and today's rush to hand over decision-making to AI systems we don't fully understand.Sean, meanwhile, talked to frustrated CISOs throughout the event who shared a common complaint: "It's hard for them to sift through the noise and figure out what the heck is really going on." When every vendor claims their AI is autonomous and perfect, how do you choose? How do you even know what you're buying?The real danger, they argue on Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco, isn't just bad purchasing decisions. It's what happens when we stop thinking altogether."If we completely just use it for the easy button, we'll stop thinking and we won't use it as a tool to make our minds better," Sean warns. We risk settling for what he calls the "lowest common denominator" – a world where AI tells us what success looks like, and we never question whether we could do better.Marco goes even further, describing a "circular knowledge learning" trap where "we use AI to create the knowledge, then to ask the question, then to give the answers." The result? "We're just becoming dumb and numb. More than dumb, but we become numb to everything else because we're just not thinking with our own head."Their solution isn't to abandon AI – it's to get honest about what it can and can't do. "Stop looking for the easy button and stop selling the easy button," Marco urges vendors on Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco. "Your product is probably as good as it is."Sean adds: "Don't be afraid to share your blemishes, share your weaknesses. Share your gaps."Because here's the thing CISOs know that vendors often forget: "CISOs are not stupid. They talk to each other. The truth will come out."In an industry built on protecting against deception, maybe it's time to stop deceiving ourselves about what AI can actually deliver. ________________ Keywordscybersecurity, artificialintelligence, blackhat2025, agentic, ai, marketing, ciso, cybersec, infosec, technology, leadership, vendor, innovation, automation, security, tech, AI, machinelearning, enterprise, business________________Hosts links:
"Durch Sport und Bewegung wirken wir, um Chancen zu schaffen." Seit 2008 hat es sich die DFL Stiftung zur Aufgabe gemacht, Kinder und Jugendliche darin zu stärken, ihr Potenzial zu entfalten. Rund 70 Projekte werden dafür durchschnittlich pro Jahr gefördert mit einem Fünf-Millionen-Euro-Budget. Und dennoch ist die Stiftungsarbeit ein Bereich, der oftmals im Schatten des Profisports steht. Obwohl sie in unserer Gesellschaft ebenso viel bewegt. Das Jahresthema lautet daher auch zu Recht: "Gesellschaft als Team". Doch wie schafft es die Stiftung, mit ihrer Arbeit sichtbar zu sein? Warum ist gerade TikTok die bevorzugte Plattform und wieso geht es dabei nicht um die Stiftung als Marke?

Weekly Update --- Newsflash: Governments Lie by Ron Paul Liberty Report
Happy Friday, everyone! This week's update is another mix of excitement, concern, and some very real talk about what's ahead. GPT-5 finally dropped, and while it's an impressive step forward in some areas, the reaction to it says as much about us as it does about the technology itself. The reaction includes more hype, plenty of disappointment, and, more concerning, a glimpse into just how emotionally tied people are becoming to AI tools.I'm also addressing a “spicy” update in one of the big AI platforms that's not just a bad idea but a societal accelerant for a problem already hurting a lot of people. And in keeping with my commitment to balance risk with reality, I close with a real-world AI win. I'll talk through a project where AI transformed a marketing team's effectiveness without losing the human touch.With that, let's get into it.⸻GPT-5: Reality vs. Hype, and What It Actually Means for YouThere have been months of hype leading up to it, and last week the release finally came. It supposedly includes fewer hallucinations, better performance in coding and math, and improved advice in sensitive areas like health and law. However, many are frustrated that it didn't deliver the world-changing leap that was promised.e I break down where it really shines, where it still falls short, and why “reduced hallucination” doesn't mean “always right.”⸻The Hidden Risk GPT-5 Just ExposedGoing a bit deeper with GPT-5, I zoom in because the biggest story from the update isn't technical; it's human. The public's emotional reaction to losing certain “personality” traits in GPT-4o revealed how many people rely on AI for encouragement and affirmation. While Altman already brought 4o back, I'm not sure that's a good thing. Dependency isn't just risky for individuals. It has real implications for leaders, organizations, and anyone navigating digital transformation.⸻Grok's Spicy Mode and the Dangerous Illusion of a “Safer” AlternativeOne AI platform just made explicit content generation a built-in feature, and it's not surprisingly exploding in popularity. Everyone seems very interested in “experimenting” with what's possible. I cut through the marketing spin, explain why this isn't a safer alternative, and unpack what leaders, parents, and IT teams need to know about the new risks it creates inside organizations and homes alike.⸻A Positive AI Story: Marketing Transformation Without the SlopThere's always bright spots though, and I want to amplify them. A mid-sized company brought me in to help them use AI without falling into the trap of generic, mass-produced content. The result? A data-driven market research capability they'd never had, streamlined workflows, faster legal approvals, and space for true A/B testing. All while keeping people, not prompts, at the center of the work.⸻If this episode was helpful, would you share it with someone? Leave a rating, drop a comment with your thoughts, and follow for future updates that go beyond the headlines and help you lead with clarity in the AI age. And, if you'd take me out for a coffee to say thanks, you can do that here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/christopherlind—Show Notes:In this Weekly Update, Christopher Lind breaks down the GPT-5 release, separating reality from hype and exploring its deeper human implications. He tackles the troubling rise of emotional dependency on AI, then addresses the launch of Grok's Spicy Mode and why it's more harmful than helpful. The episode closes with a real-world example of AI done right in marketing, streamlining operations, growing talent, and driving results without losing the human touch.Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction and Welcome01:14 - Overview of Today's Topics02:58 - GPT-5 Rundown22:52 - What GPT-5 Revealed About Emotional Dependency on AI36:09 - Grok4 Spicy Mode & AI in Adult Content48:23 - Positive Use of AI in Marketing55:04 - Conclusion#AIethics #AIrisks #DigitalLeadership #HumanCenteredAI #FutureOfWork

In this week's update, we begin with an overview of the tragic shooting at Fort Stewart in Georgia. We then shift over to Friday's shooting on the CDC campus in Atlanta. Police believe the suspect was motivated by a belief he was injured by the COVID-19 vaccine. This incident took place just two days after HHS Secretary pulled research funding for mRNA vaccines because of the dangers they pose. We also take a look the President's decision to deploy federal law enforcement to patrol the streets of Washington, DC.

Happy Friday, everyone! This week's update is heavily shaped by you. After some recent feedback, I'm working to be intentional about highlighting not just the risks of AI, but also examples of some real wins I'm involved in. Amidst all the dystopian noise, I want people to know it's possible for AI to help people, not just hurt them. You'll see that in the final segment, which I'll try and include each week moving forward.Oh, and one of this week's stories? It came directly from a listener who shared how an AI system nearly wrecked their life. It's a powerful reminder that what we talk about here isn't just theory; it's affecting real people, right now.Now, all four updates this week deal with the tension between moving fast and being responsible. It emphasizes the importance of being intentional about how we handle power, pressure, and people in the age of AI.With that, let's get into it.⸻ChatGPT Didn't Leak Your Private Conversations, But the Panic Reveals a Bigger ProblemYou probably saw the headlines: “ChatGPT conversations showing up in Google search!” The truth? It wasn't a breach, well, at least not how you might think. It was a case of people moving too fast, not reading the fine print, and accidentally sharing public links. I break down what really happened, why OpenAI shut the feature down, and what this teaches us about the cultural costs of speed over discernment.⸻Workday's AI Hiring Lawsuit Just Took a Big TurnWorkday's already in court for alleged bias in its hiring AI, but now the judge wants a full list of every company that used it. Ruh-Roh George! This isn't just a vendor issue anymore. I unpack how this sets a new legal precedent, what it means for enterprise leaders, and why blindly trusting software could drag your company into consequences you didn't see coming.⸻How AI Nearly Cost One Man His Life-Saving MedicationA listener shared a personal story about how an AI system denied his long-standing prescription with zero human context. Guess what saved it? A wave of people stepped in. It's a chilling example of what happens when algorithms make life-and-death decisions without context, compassion, or recourse. I explore what this reveals about system design, bias, and the irreplaceable value of human community.⸻Yes, AI Can Improve Hiring; Here's a Story Where It DidAs part of my future commitment, I want to end with a win. I share a project I worked on where AI actually helped more people get hired by identifying overlooked talent and recommending better-fit roles. It didn't replace people; it empowered them. I walk through how we designed it, what made it work, and why this kind of human-centered AI is not only possible, it's necessary.⸻If this episode was helpful, would you share it with someone?

And, if you'd take me out for a coffee to say thanks, you can do that here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/christopherlind—Show Notes:In this Weekly Update, Christopher Lind unpacks four timely stories at the intersection of AI, business, leadership, and human experience.

Next, he shares a listener's powerful story about healthcare denied by AI and how community turned the tide.

Weekly Update --- Cold War 2.0 Heats Up by Ron Paul Liberty Report
1. Scrutiny of the "Tea" Dating AppThe women-focused dating app "Tea" faces backlash after two data breaches exposed 72,000 sensitive images and 1.1 million private messages. Though security upgrades were promised, past data remained exposed, and the app lacks end-to-end encryption. Additionally, anonymous features enabling posts about men have sparked defamation lawsuits. Critics argue Tea prioritized rapid growth over user safety, exemplifying the danger of neglecting cybersecurity in pursuit of scale.2. North Korean Remote Work InfiltrationCrowdStrike has flagged a 220% surge in North Korean IT operatives posing as remote workers—over 320 cases in the past year. These operatives use stolen/fake identities, aided by generative AI to craft résumés, deepfake interviews, and juggle multiple jobs. Their earnings fund Pyongyang's weapons programs. The tactic reveals the limits of traditional vetting and the need for advanced hiring security.3. Airportr's Data ExposureUK luggage service Airportr suffered a major security lapse exposing passport photos, boarding passes, and flight details—including those of diplomats. CyberX9 found it possible to reset accounts with just an email and no limits on login attempts. Attackers could gain admin access, reroute luggage, or cancel flights. Although patched, the incident underscores risks of convenience services with poor security hygiene.4. Risks of AI-Generated CodeVeracode's "2025 GenAI Code Security Report" found that nearly 45% of AI-generated code across 80 tasks had security flaws—many severe. This highlights the need for human oversight and thorough reviews. While AI speeds development, it also increases vulnerability if unchecked, making secure coding a human responsibility.5. Microsoft's SharePoint Hack ControversyChinese state hackers exploited flaws in SharePoint, breaching hundreds of U.S. entities. A key concern: China-based Microsoft engineers maintained the hacked software, potentially enabling earlier access. Microsoft also shared vulnerability data with Chinese firms through its MAPP program, while Chinese law requires such data be reported to the state. This raises alarms about outsourcing sensitive software to geopolitical rivals.6. Russian Embassy Surveillance AttackRussia's "Secret Blizzard" hackers used ISP-level surveillance to deliver fake Kaspersky updates to embassies. These updates installed malware and rogue certificates enabling adversary-in-the-middle attacks—allowing full decryption of traffic. The attack shows the threat of state-level manipulation of software updates and underscores the need for update authenticity verification.7. Signal's Threat to Exit AustraliaSignal may pull out of Australia if forced to weaken encryption. ASIO's push for access contradicts Signal's end-to-end encryption model, which can't accommodate backdoors without global compromise. This standoff underscores a broader debate: encryption must be secure for all or none. Signal's resistance reflects the rising tension between privacy advocates and governments demanding access.8. Los Alamos Turns to AILos Alamos National Laboratory has launched a National Security AI Office, signaling a pivot from nuclear to AI capabilities. With massive GPU infrastructure and university partnerships, the lab sees AI as the next frontier in scientific and national defense. This reflects a shift in global security dynamics—where large language models may be as strategically vital as missiles.

Weekly Update --- Nobody for Fed Chairman by Ron Paul Liberty Report
Germany's Tech-Driven Warfare & Ethical ImplicationsGermany is integrating AI, robotics, and human-machine teaming into its military, deploying tech like robotic cockroaches for surveillance and mini-robots for urban combat. These innovations aim to enhance decision-making and minimize human risk. Yet, critics warn of ethical and legal concerns, especially around loss of human oversight in lethal decisions. Despite official claims that humans will remain in control, the autonomy debate continues.Astronomer's "Kiss Cam" ScandalA viral Coldplay concert “Kiss Cam” captured Astronomer's CEO and Chief People Officer—both married—trying to avoid public display. The clip, viewed over 127 million times, sparked privacy concerns and led to their resignations. In a PR twist, Astronomer hired Gwyneth Paltrow (ex-wife of Coldplay's Chris Martin) as a temporary spokesperson to steer attention back to the company's data automation services.Tea App's Privacy BreachesThe women's dating safety app “Tea” was compromised twice. First, 72,000 private images, including IDs and selfies, were leaked due to an unsecured Firebase database. A second breach exposed over a million sensitive messages containing personal info and taboo topics. Despite promises of anonymity, users' names, social links, and phone numbers were often easily traceable—defeating the app's core promise of safety.WhoFi and the Future of SurveillanceWhoFi, a surveillance system developed at La Sapienza University, uses Wi-Fi distortions (Channel State Information) to uniquely identify individuals based on their body's impact on signal patterns. Achieving up to 95.5% accuracy, it can track people without phones or devices, raising serious privacy concerns about ubiquitous, passive surveillance with no opt-out.ChatGPT Agent Bypasses SecurityOpenAI's ChatGPT Agent demonstrated it can bypass Cloudflare's anti-bot “I am not a robot” checks. Operating in a sandboxed browser environment, it navigated multi-step verifications without CAPTCHAs. This challenges the efficacy of current web security protocols and signals that anti-bot measures may be obsolete in the face of advanced AI agents.AI-Driven Pricing Controversy in AirlinesAmerican Airlines' CEO slammed Delta for using AI in airfare pricing, labeling it “bait and switch.” Delta claims uniform pricing across channels and denies tailoring fares per customer. While Delta plans broader AI deployment, competitors like Southwest and American reject AI pricing, citing privacy concerns and potential fare manipulation.Clorox Hack & Vendor NegligenceA 2023 cyberattack cost Clorox $380 million due to a security lapse by its IT vendor, Cognizant. Hackers impersonated Clorox employees and tricked service desk agents into resetting credentials—no identity checks were performed. Now, Clorox is suing Cognizant for damages stemming from this avoidable breach.North Korean Espionage via Remote WorkNorth Korean operatives used stolen identities to land remote IT jobs at major U.S. firms like Nike and Chick-fil-A. Aided by VPNs and paid stand-ins for interviews, they funneled salaries to the regime. A U.S. woman received 8.5 years in prison for facilitating this scheme, which exposed sensitive company data and posed national security risks.

Sign up here: https://imahealth.org/weekly-webinars/Learn more: https://imahealth.org/doctors-against-pesticide-liability-protection/The same playbook that shielded vaccine manufacturers from accountability is now being deployed across America's state legislatures—this time to protect pesticide companies from liability. As courageous physicians like IMA Senior Fellow Dr. Brooke Miller and longtime advocate Dr. Meryl Nass sound the alarm, a coordinated industry campaign is quietly advancing legislation that would make EPA-approved labels the final word on pesticide safety, effectively blocking Americans from seeking justice when harmed by these chemicals.Join Dr. Ryan Cole as he hosts this critical conversation exploring the disturbing parallels between vaccine and pesticide liability protections. With several states having already passed or considered these "liability shield" laws, and similar legislation advancing across the country, time is running short to expose this corporate power grab. While Bayer faces billions in Roundup settlements and tens of thousands of pending lawsuits, will Americans lose their fundamental right to hold manufacturers accountable for toxic exposures?

ITSPmagazine Weekly Update | From Black Hat to Black Sabbath / Ozzy: AI Agents and Guitars (again!) + Entry Level Cybersecurity Jobs, Robots Evolution, and the Weekly Recap You Didn't Expect - On Marco & Sean's Random & Unscripted Podcast __________________Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin are back with another random and unscripted weekly recap—from pre-Black Hat buzz and AI agents to vintage wood guitars, talent gaps, and Glen Miller debates. This week's reflection hits tech, music, and philosophy in all the right ways. Tune in, ramble with us, and subscribe. __________________Full Blog Article This week's recap was a ride.Sean and I kicked things off with the big news: we're officially consistent. Weekly recap number… I lost count. But we're doing it. We covered what ITSPmagazine's been working on, what we've been publishing, and where our minds are wandering lately (spoiler: everywhere).Black Hat USA 2025 is just around the corner, and we're deep into prep mode. I even bought a paper map. Why? I don't know. But we've got some great pre-event conversations already out—like our annual chat with Black Hat GM Steve Wylie, plus briefings with Dropzone AI (get ready for “agentic automation” to be the next big buzzword) and Akamai (yes, bots and APIs again, but with a solid strategy twist).We also talked about a fantastic episode Sean did on resonance and reinvention—featuring Cindy, a luthier in NYC who builds custom guitars using century-old beams from historic buildings. The pickups even use the old nails. Music and wood with a past life. It's beautiful stuff.Speaking of stories, I officially closed down the Storytelling podcast. But don't worry—I'm still telling stories. I've just shifted focus to “Redefining Society and Technology,” my newsletter and podcast series where I explore how humans and tech evolve together. This week's edition tackled the merging of humans and machines as a new species. Isaac Asimov meets Andy Clark.We also got a bit philosophical about AI and jobs. If machines take over the “easy” roles, where do humans begin? Are we cutting off our own training paths?Sean's episode with John Solomon dug into the cybersecurity hiring crisis—challenging the idea that we have a “talent gap.” The real issue? We're not hiring or nurturing people properly.Oh, and I finally released my long-overdue interview with Michael Sheldrick from Global Citizen. Music. Social impact. Doing good. It's all there. I'm honored to support even a small piece of what he's building.And yes… Ozzy. RIP. Music never dies.So if you're into random reflections with meaning, tech with humanity, and stories that don't always follow the rules—subscribe, share, and join the ride.See you in Vegas. Or the future. Or somewhere in between.________________ KeywordsBlack Hat USA 2025, ITSPmagazine recap, Marco Ciappelli, Sean Martin, cybersecurity podcast, AI in cybersecurity, agentic automation, Dropzone AI, Akamai APIs, HITRUST security, Global Citizen, Michael Sheldrick, storytelling podcast, Redefining Society, Andy Clark, Isaac Asimov, human-machine evolution, cybersecurity talent gap, custom guitar NYC, Ozzy tributeHosts links:

A single compromised password led to the collapse of 158-year-old UK logistics firm KNP, after hackers—suspected to be the Akira gang—used it to gain access, encrypt systems, and demand a £5 million ransom. Unable to pay, the company lost all its data and folded, putting 700 employees out of work. The breach underscores how weak access controls can have catastrophic consequences.To counter massive botnets, Google is now combining technical defenses with legal action. Its lawsuit against the “BadBox 2.0” operators marks a major shift: targeting criminals behind malware that infected over 10 million Android devices. Google's strategy includes leveraging the CFAA and RICO Act to not just stop malware but dismantle the entire criminal infrastructure—signaling a more aggressive, litigation-driven cybersecurity era.Meanwhile, a new malware delivery method is exploiting DNS—a common but often under-monitored network function. Attackers hide malware in DNS TXT records, break it into chunks, and reassemble it on target systems using standard DNS queries. Since DNS traffic is rarely scrutinized, this technique bypasses traditional defenses, making DNS monitoring essential for comprehensive protection.Travelers to China face serious privacy risks. Authorities are using malware like “Massistant” to extract sensitive data from mobile phones during inspections. Developed by Chinese firm Meiya Pico, the software accesses encrypted texts, location history, and even Signal messages upon installation. Though evidence of compromise may remain, the intrusion happens before detection, raising concerns for anyone bringing devices into the country.China has also shifted its cyberattack strategy by outsourcing operations to private firms. These companies now discover and sell zero-day vulnerabilities to government agencies. This model, which evolved from loosely affiliated hacker groups, blurs the line between state and private enterprise, making attribution difficult. As a result, China-linked hackers increasingly infiltrate U.S. critical infrastructure while masking their origins, and exposure alone no longer seems to deter them.In response to national security concerns, Microsoft has removed China-based engineers from U.S. military cloud projects. A ProPublica investigation revealed their prior involvement, prompting a Pentagon ban on such support. Previously, Chinese engineers worked under U.S. supervision, a practice now deemed too risky for defense-related systems.Microsoft's SharePoint is also under siege. Chinese state actors exploited a critical flaw dubbed “ToolShell” to compromise at least 54 organizations, including those in critical infrastructure. The attack allowed for deep system access, extraction of encryption keys, and installation of web shells—despite prior patches. The incident stresses the need for rapid patching and vigilance, even on widely used enterprise platforms.Cyberwarfare is influencing real-world military dynamics. Ukrainian cyber operatives claim to have digitally crippled a major Russian drone manufacturer, deleting 47TB of production data and disabling access systems. Allegedly backed by military intelligence, the attack highlights how digital sabotage can directly disrupt military production and reshape conflict outcomes. Code is now as consequential as conventional weapons on the modern battlefield.

EP 252. In this week's update:A single compromised password enabled ransomware actors to bankrupt a 158-year-old British logistics firm, exposing the catastrophic business risks of weak access controls.Google launches its most aggressive legal action yet to dismantle a massive botnet infecting over 10 million devices, signaling a strategic shift toward litigation-led cyber defense.Security researchers have identified a new malware technique leveraging overlooked DNS traffic to bypass traditional defenses—highlighting a critical blind spot in enterprise monitoring.Chinese authorities are deploying powerful forensic malware to extract encrypted data from seized mobile devices, raising red flags (literally) for travelers and privacy advocates alike.China's outsourcing of cyberattacks to private firms marks a new era of state-sponsored hacking thoroughly blurring the lines between national strategy and commercial enterprise.Microsoft is removing China-based engineers from U.S. military cloud projects following national security concerns—prompting a major policy shift in federal tech partnerships.Microsoft has attributed a wave of advanced SharePoint breaches to Chinese threat actors, urging critical infrastructure operators to reevaluate patching protocols and on-premise defenses.Ukrainian cyber operatives claim to have obliterated a major Russian drone producer's entire digital infrastructure... potentially stalling military production and reshaping electronic warfare dynamics.Let's put the pedal to the metal.Find the complete transcript to this week's podcast here.

ITSPmagazine Weekly Update | From AI Agents to Tape Mixes, to Guitars and Black Hat Buzzwords and much more with Marco & Sean's Random & Unscripted Podcast ⸻ In this weekly unscripted update, Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin catch up on their latest stories, from AI agents replacing SOC analysts to mixtape nostalgia and vintage guitars made from NYC history. They also tease big things coming at Black Hat USA and reflect on why collaboration is core to ITSPmagazine. ⸻ In this week's Random and Unscripted episode, Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin return with another lively behind-the-scenes update from the ITSPmagazine world. As always, the conversation flows unpredictably—from music and nostalgia to cybersecurity, AI, and everything in between. Marco kicks off the episode by confessing he saw ASIS live—twice—and is now on a mission for the perfect mod haircut. Sean follows with an unexpected review of an avant-garde opera at Lincoln Center, which explores humanity's attempt to extend life through technology. That sets the stage for deeper reflection on AI, with both co-founders digging into the role of AI agents in cybersecurity operations. Sean recaps his recent contributor-led newsletters on threat intelligence and AI-powered SOC roles. Marco, meanwhile, teases the next chapter in his “Robbie the Robot” newsletter series, which will explore the merger of humans and machines. The episode also spotlights a series of published interviews: a brand story with Greg and John from White Knight Labs, Marco's conversation with Ken Munro wrapping up Infosecurity Europe 2025, and an episode with Abadesi from the Women in Cybersecurity track—discussing how diverse teams build better tech. Sean also drops new Music Evolves episodes, including a conversation with Summer McCoy of the Mixtape Museum and a new story on Carmine Guitars, where vintage NYC wood is repurposed into one-of-a-kind instruments. That sparks a philosophical reflection from Marco on the contrast between analog warmth and digital impermanence. As the episode winds down, Marco and Sean turn their attention to Black Hat USA 2025. With sponsorships nearly sold out, they encourage companies to claim one of the last remaining spots. They also preview an upcoming live webinar where they'll debate the event's inevitable buzzwords with industry peers. As always, the tone is informal, curious, and community-driven. If you want the inside scoop on what's shaping the stories and strategies at ITSPmagazine—this is the episode to hear. ⸻ Keywords: cybersecurity, AI agents, threat intelligence, SOC analyst, mixtape museum, custom guitars, Black Hat USA 2025, ITSPmagazine, analog vs digital, diversity in tech, robotic automation, newsletter strategy, editorial collaboration, pen testing, brand storytelling, tech culture, cybersecurity events, operational technology, digital transformation, music and techHosts links:
