Jared's Technology Podcast Network

Find news through the blog. Welcome to program 137 of the Security box. We've got a very interesting musings piece which we've blogged as well as another threat we need to talk about. Musing I've started yet another musings post, and this one came from Mastodon. I am not going to put the older posts in this category but will put new ones in this category. A very interesting musing thought piece is the article. The boost is quoted with the links linked as numbers for you. Maybe a Moron or just a news item? No April fools joke, man arrested for making swatting calls, faces 10 felony counts was the only post posted on April 1st. This was no April fools joke. The gentleman in question used Discord to post and share these videos and luckily nobody got hurt. You'll want to check out this article to determine what you think, and we'll determine where it goes and do it appropriately. Mimic ransomware New Mimic Ransomware Abuses Everything APIs for its Encryption Process comes from Trend Micro. This may be just as bad as Sandworm, if not worse. We'll discuss this Trend Micro article.

I know I tried to get more podcasts out and this time I've got one. We'll see how things go, and thanks for listening! Welcome to the technology blog and podcast. On this edition of the podcast, we have got two different items. Roger Grimes has written a bunch of books, and he's also taught for as long as I have if not longer. He has a webinar on Cyber Security, and yes, we could play it on TSB but TSB is more for you to communicate with us on what you have questions on and what things we see. Take a listen to this and see what might be of value to you. Los Angeles Metro and Transit App are ending their partnership. Is this a great move? I don't honestly know. Metro did have a pretty bad app which I hated to use. The data was the samem, but I really like Transit App's interface. Los Angeles Metro will be discontinuing partnership of Transit App as their official app is my blog post after reading the source's post on this. Contact info is given at the beginning and end, feel free to utalize any or all of it. Enjoy!

Welcome to the Security box. This is podcast 137 of the program and we're not slowing down. At least, not yet. On this edition of the program, we've got at least one moron of the podcast, we've got a very interesting update on Sandworm and of course we're going to have some great news items as well as anything else from the audience. Morons of the podcast This blog post titled Kroger has serious breach, affects 82,000 people of postal prescription issues should be spotted. While Kroger is well-known for their super market chains, they apparently have a pharmacy department and that is what we're talking about here. They have the capability of sending prescriptions through the mail, and 82,000 people were recently notified. This is going to get very interesting. Two U.S. Men Charged in 2022 Hacking of DEA Portal was sent to TSB. Hacking in to a DEA portal that many agencies use must be put in as the moron of the podcast for sure. Nick messaged while show notes were still being put together and this was mentioned via voice. Great one, guys! Some news items Some of the news items may include but not limited to: Opinion piece: article talks about how TikTok didn’t make a case for itself Move out of the way, 55 vulnerabilities tracked in 2022 and these are zero-days Another hacking forum shut down … this is the breach forums 306,000 plus out of 476,000 plus domains reported as phishing Some we may have talked about, but these may be some that people could be braught up. Feel free to check out the accompanying articles and let us know what interests you! I happened to pop on Facebook for my once in a while look. Someone I follow happened to like Q-Link Wireless. OK, that's cool, but we need to remind people that Q-Link may be good for free cell phone service, but what about your privacy and safety? TSB will not tell you what you should use, just putting news out there about the things we read. Why is there “no password required” when accessing accounts? What not to do when setting up accounts for services podcast 39's blog post NVDA is now released for 2023.1. This blog post talks about what's up with it with a link to the release. Topic: Sandworm Did you read Sandworm? This is the blog post about the book titled: Sandworm: A New Era of Cyberwar and the Hunt for the Kremlin’s Most Dangerous Hackers and here is the book review titled: Book review: Sandworm. We found a very interesting article which we may have blogged. The blog post is titled <a href="https://cyberscoop.com/sandworm-wiper-ukraine-russia-military-in

Hello everyone, welcome to podcast 136 of the security box. On this edition of the program, we're going to talk about a group that has quite a bit up its sleve. We also have a bunch of news from around the landscape, a familiar foe that could in theory get the moron of the podcast yet again and much more. We hope that you enjoy the program and thanks for listening! Possible moron I wrote a thought article on my blog with no accompanying article. Here is that blog post titled TikTok says: “We’re embedded” in to the operating system. I am not sure if this will be it, and if someone puts something else in, we'll add it to this list. We could in theory add this blog post about Bite Dance Surveiling journalists to this too. Topic: Vice Society This blog post titled Vice Society Ransomware Group Targets Manufacturing Companies is probably the beginning. This seems to be a new group and it seems pretty dangerous. While it hasn't targetted the United States yet, we know that anything is possible in this crazy world.

Hello folks, welcome to podcast 135 of the security box. On this podcast, we're going to talk about the court system allowing the lawsuit to continue against one of the most proliferated companies who continue to claim they don't do anything wrong and their software that is used by law enforcement to solve crimes. Who is that group? The NSO group out of Israel. We'll also have news, notes, at least one moron of the podcast, but rumor has it that we have a few, and much more. Morons of the podcast George Santos has some revelations that has come out and an investigation has since been started. The blog post in question is right here, and is titled George Santos masterminded 2017 fraud case. It leads to a lengthy read about what the investigations entale although we don't know what will eventually happen. If you really want to talk about Morons, the FBI admitted to buying data which really should not be a surprise. We could possibly add Elon Musk apologizing for firing a disabled worker of twitter as well. This blog post about twitter news covers the fact that the root certificate has now expired and Elon Musk has since fired everyone of alue including the one who has delbt with the Root CA which was internal to the company, so now ... they're screwed. Don't forget the Freenom ordeal too. This blog post leads to Krebs on Security talking about this. I also put in some discussion about this too. Have any other possible morons? Do you disagree on some of these not being complete morons? I completely understand, but we do have at least two of them listed and others may just be complete stories within themselves. Musing I found this quite interesting in regards to Mastodon VS the rest of the Social Media universe such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Tiktok. It says: Earle Zwicker: Boosting Ethan Schoonover (ethanschoonover): Stop thinking of Twitter, TikTok, IG, (et al) as social media sites. They are **Content Refineries.** Like processed food manufacturers they take user content & extract the most addicting/engaging content. Brains eat it up but in an unhealthy “devour the whole bag of chips” way. They make hyper-processed social media junk food. Mastodon is more like a potluck. We're all bringing dishes. It's a mess. Kids are running all over. But we are, at least, real people sharing real things. Our topic, the NSO group Supreme Court clears way for WhatsApp case against NSO Group, opening spyware firm to more lawsuits is the article that comes to us from Cyberscoop. Its going to be a very interesting discussion. We'll just have to see how it goes. Support our podcast. Let us know what you think or suggest topics. Thanks!

Hello folks, welcome to the Security box, podcast 134. This podcast is going to talk about PBKDF2, an encryption algorithm that is used in certain situations. We'll also have a moron of the week, maybe two, maybe more! We'll also dip our toes in the landscape and see what is on other folks minds. Morons of the podcast This first one is quite dumb. In fact, when I saw the boost which saw it, I had to title this the way I did. You Stupid F**k … its not going to look good for you now when you get picked up is my blog post on an article coming from a site called news24.com. Not only is this guy found guilty, you're going to read that he just chose not to even show up! How dumb can you be? This second one comes from this blog post about TikTok's newest challenge. There is some strong language with this post, and from at least two people, it is well warranted. I try not to use strong language in my posts, but this one is definitely beyond repair. The short of this, for those who may be offended by strong language, is that scammers will stop at nothing to either get their wares out or to cause as much harm as possible. In this latest twist, we have someone going aroudn claiming they can turn loved one's ashes to a sculpture or even a painting. They claim its free ... but it isn't. The article leads to this Kim Komando article talking about the TikTok Scam. If it isn't mentioned as part of this segment, which it just may, please feel free to weigh in on this one. Our topic, PBKDF2 PBKdf2 is one of many encryption types for passwords and the like. Here's the Wikipedia article on it as we take from the first two sections for now. There are replacements for it and its covered within this article, but we'll let you look this up later. Book Selection: Tracers in the dark I chose my next book. Tracers in the Dark by Andy Greenberg. During the podcast, we'll check in with folks to see where they are in this ... or other books that are on our list. This is my blog post talking about Tracers in the dark if you need it. I finally got my book review up for If it's smart, its vulnerable by Mikko Hypponnen. Here's that blog post if you're interested to see what I have to say about it.

Welcome to the security box, podcast 132. On this edition of the program, we're going to talk about a newcomer I think, one that might be and up and comer. We have a rumor that we might have at least one moron, but who knows how many. We'll have news, notes and other commentary as well. Rumor has it, we've got a surprise while making a phone call before last Saturday's security hour that someone who I thought wouldn't read books is reading the same book several of us are reading. Find out as you listen to the podcast edition of the program. Moron of the podcast Nick, our normal staple now a day, mentioned this story in passing. Turns out that do have a moron as you'll see in the accompanying blog post. As it turns out, other articles about this 90 million dollar takeover can be found, but my blog post This was mentioned as our possible moron of the podcast … a suspect found guilty but attorney will appeal has the details and some very interesting questions I think we need to talk about as this gentleman, Vladislav Klyushin, is our moron of the podcast. You should've stayed with cybersecurity and you would have been OK. Enjoy your award, the hammer is down on you this time. Dark Pink This week, we learn about a new group out there called Dark Pink. Dark Pink, a newly discovered hacking campaign, threatens Southeast Asian military, government organizations is the article and it comes from Cyberscoop. Come with us as we take this malware apart and talk about what its up to. It comes from a group as you've probably read if you found the article through our list or even blog. This is going to get very interesting.

One sware word within the first hour and 15 minutes. A note has been placed in the audio for folks who need to be aware of it. Full notes below. Hello everyone. Welcome to program 131 of the Security box. I hope you'll enjoy what we have to offer you today. On this podcast, we have a rumor that indicates that we'll definitely have at least one moron of the podcast, maybe more. We'll also have the topic of the Q4 threat trends Report from Phishlabs as well as questions, comments and more. We hope you'll enjoy the program and thanks for listening! Here's a moron set for you There were two articles in which broke this, and it definitely fits our Moron of the podcast. This blog post from February 10th has links to each of the articles and initial thoughts. Also, I'm not too sure about this one, but we could probly fit this IRS update from February 10th as well as this blog post talking about an article by Andy Greenberg and a guy who thinks that he won't be caught as he apparently got a mixer going on and he's supposedly taken the right precautions. If you have anything in this category, feel free to mention it by sending us an email, an imessage, find me on Mastodon and even text or whats app me. Our topic Seems like QBot is back in the news as the top threat in this last quarters report from Phishlabs and Fortra. The article is titled QBot Campaigns Overwhelmingly Lead Reported Payloads in Q4 is the article we'll be taking from. It was posted to TSB's list last December, and of course, I do try and cover it. The threat may still be there, and with all of what we'll be talking about here, all of these threats have not gone away.

Hello everyone. Welcome to podcast 130A. We're going to rebroadcast a podcast from Cyber Crime Magazine about the book Tracers in the Dark: The Global Hunt for the Crime Lords of Cryptocurrency which is also linked on our resources page. I found the program of interest, and this could in theory be my next book. I hope that everyone enjoys this interview about the book!

Welcome to the security box, podcast 130. On this show, we're going to talk about a very interesting article that covers the fact that Coppa is out of date and congress hasn't done anything about it. We'll have news, notes, commentary and more. Who knows, will we have a bonehead award of the podcast? We'll have to see. Topic: Coppa and Congress I blogged this one, and on this podcast, we're going to discuss State legislators aren't waiting for Congress to regulate children's online privacy. It was quite interesting to see that Coppa is needing to be changed yet companies aren't really following it like they should. Adult disclaimer This program may contain some strong language. Parental desgression is advised. This means its an infrequent occurrence, but there.

There is one spot where some strong language is used within the following podcast. We want people to be aware of that. Its only one word, but due to rules and regs, we must bring this up to the listener. Hello folks, welcome to the security box podcast 129. Last week, we talked about the government, but there's more to the story in which people may not be aware of. Apparently, there has been a watch dog group out there taking reports on what the government has or has not done. The article is titled Government watchdog: Feds fail to implement vast majority of cybersecurity recommendations and was covered by Cyberscoop. This is a very interesting article which we'll be stepping through. Besides that, my hunch may indicate that we'll have a moron of the podcast, people may have questions, and we'll see what the show has in store.

Welcome to the Security box, podcast 128. On this podcast, we probably have two morons of the podcast, one of which should've gotten it before we came up with the idea. We also ask the question, What's going on over at CISA? This acronuym stands for Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. Seems as though they don't know what's going on, or at least might be confused. Moron of the podcast We have listed both morons of the podcast by listing the basics of the story and links to the stories themselves. 1. It seems as though T-Mobile has had yet another breach with at least another estimated 37 million consumers, whether prepaid or postpaid. New T-Mobile Breach Affects 37 Million Accounts Krebs on Security T-Mobile investigates yet another data breach, this one affecting 37 million accounts Cyberscoop 2. The second moron goes to a guy in Russia that thought it would be fun to launder crypto currency. Not only was he funneling Crypto, but he was the founder of a crypto currency exchange. Russian founder of a cryptocurrency exchange known for funneling ransomware profits arrested comes to us from Cyberscoop and hasn't been blogged as of yet, but will be. Topic: What's going on at CISA? CISA has been known to send notifications via an email list that people can subscribe to. How I got on it, I don't remember, but it has since changed the way things are sent. Regardless, the article Insiders worry CISA is too distracted from critical cyber mission is our article that will help us with our discussion. It also comes from Cyberscoop. Other stuff I know that Nick missed last week's program so we'll give him an opportunity to get on the program and talk about anything from last week. We'll go through news, notes and other things too.

On this podcast, a video voice mail update and why didn't Lastpass let us know what's really going on with their breach? here is the blog post that I wrote with the accompanying article that I talked about during the second segment. Contact info is at the beginning and end of the program.

Welcome to the security box, podcast 127. This time, we're going to talk about something I don't think any podcast has ever covered. What that might be? That would be Bullet Proof Hosting. What is it? Why is it such a problem? How can you stay away from companies that allow such a thing? We'll take from Wikipedia's write up on Bullet proof hosting but we aren't taking the entire thing. This term (written as bulletproof hosting) will be also included in this week's EMHS updates. The podcast will also have any news and notes, updates on the particulars of screen readers and what they have to help us deal with the ongoing threats for looking at links, and much more.

This program does not contain any strong language or adult content. Hello folks, welcome to the security box. On this edition of the program, we're going to talk about your security posture. We've got two bonehead of the day awards and plenty of discussion both in news and our main topic! Stay tuned for our next podcast, we'll be here again soon!

On this podcast, learn about the domain registry, a company who basicly lied to me and told me something I couldn't even do to begin with. Turns out this company is a liar, possibly a scammer and no, they won't be linked as their web site is not all that accessible as I asked.

Welcome to podcast 125 of the Security Box series. On this edition, let's talk about a new book we found during the break, one in which might be of interest since we're going to talk about security posture later. The book is titled The Ransomware Hunting Team: A Band of Misfits' Improbable Crusade to Save the World from Cybercrime by Renee Dudley and Daniel Golden. While it doesn't cover your posture per say, it does cover a team who is behind you in the fight and understands the struggles. You see, its not all your fault, we understand that. You could even do everything right, including having the right training. Next, we're going to cover two articles that cover the year end review and what is coming up in predictions for 2023. Financials See Increase in Phishing Attacks, Compromised Sites Lead Staging Methods in Q3 Phishlabs Financials and Card Data Top Q3 Targets on the Dark Web Phishlabs We may have blogged these, but if we haven't, they'll be blogged as part of the podcast show notes which these are. Besides that, we'll have plenty of things in news if we can remember it all, and of course, we'll have lots of discussion on things that might not be in the roundup. We hope you enjoy this edtion of the podcast, and thanks for listening!

Hello everyone. Welcome to podcast 368 of the technology podcast series. On this podcast, we're going to put out the file that talks abot Tiktok being used for financial advice. TikTok is at it again, now we have fintok was blogged on December 30, 2022 with an article talking about this by our digital goddess Kim Komando. While Social Media is not knew, TikTok has been treading on thin waters. You can search Tiktok for all of the news coverage we have on our blog. We've decided to put out this and other things for discussion and to keep this podcast going. I hope that this will be of interest, and we'll see how it goes. Contact information is available on the blog and within the podcast itself. Thanks for listening, and make it a great day!

On this edition, we talk about utech's update to version 2. We also have thoughts on how we might be able to keep this podcast going. This is the last podcast of the year from the network. Enjoy!

Welcome to the Security box, podcast 124. On this podcast, we've got news coming out of Security Now about another root Certificate company that is no more. We've got news and notes from around the landscape, and Ransomware payments have hit at least a billion dollars. All this, including questions, comments and other miscellanious activity on today's show. Trust Core Security Now podcast 900 is full of questions. One of which for this podcast talks about another trust certificate authority that isn't. The apparent company is called Trust Core. This reminds me of the Hong Kong post office and why they were a trusted certificate authority. We've never covered certificate authorities and maybe we need to. Let's just say that they intercepted traffic and installed malware. EUFY not telling the truth I don't have any articles, but SN 900 covered this and I saw a notice from Malware Bytes. They say that footage from their cameras are not send to the cloud, but an Ars Technica article mentioned by Stieve indicates otherwise. The company Anker (not to be confused with Anchor) says this is not the case. Ransomware costing a billion dollars Ransomware costs top $1 billion as White House inks new threat-sharing initiative is a Cyberscoop article and our main topic. If we can share intelligence, maybe we can better defend against these problems and maybe Ransomware can be slowed down. We'll see how it goes.

I'd personally like to thank Herbie Allen for his time running the stream during our internet outage today. Thanks friend! Below, please find the show notes for today's program. I hope to see you all next week! Welcome to the security box, podcast 123. Today, we're going to cover the psychology of passwords 2022 report. We'll also have the news from around the landscape, maybe an asshole award of the podcast if one is warranted and much more. I hope you enjoy the program as much as I enjoy bringing it to you. The Psychology of Passwords report The article we're going to take from this time is New Report: 2022 Psychology of Passwords from Lastpass. Wile most people receiving some cyber security training during the pandemic probably learn a few things, 62 percent still reuse passwords. The article links to the full report but we'll only talk about what is in the article itself. Maybe we can apply it to this community and give our thoughts on how this community should shift its thinking.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Security Box. We did get a callin that we didn't know wanted to call in to let us know some things, but we got it all working out. This may affect may different people and we hope that this is a learning experience for you. Please stay safe. Welcome to the Security Box, podcast 122. On this podcast, we will be covering some news that came out of Freshbooks on Wednesday, November 23, 2022. We'll also be covering Card Skimming and how it disproportionately is a disadvantage to people who use EBT cards. We'll also have plenty of news and notes from around the landscape and we'll also see what else people want to talk about as we return from our Thanksgiving break. Freshbooks As we blogged on November 23, 2022, Freshbooks became victim to Phishing. The company itself did not get phished, but people who are customers and non-customers were hitting Freshbooks's Twitter asking if emails were real or not. Freshbooks reports that these emails are fake, and said that emails come from freshbooks.com or any of its properties and not from anywhere else. The technology blog and podcast's coverage of this event On November 29, 2022, they indicated to the JRN that while there was no incident, the phishing uses other domains that is outside of Freshbooks itself. They linked to an FAQ titled What Emails Are Sent Out of My Account? Please read this FAQ if you're a freshbooks customer or get email from them as a customer of someone who pays to send invoices. EBT cards are now a target In our main topic, we're going to talk about EBT cards and what is happening with them. We also learn that there's a lawsuit to get states to actually do something if something goes wrong. You'll understand why as the discussion is done. Here are the articles: How Card Skimming Disproportionally Affects Those Most In Need Krebs on Security Lawsuit Seeks Food Benefits Stolen By Skimmers Krebs on Security We thank each and every one of you for listening, participating and most of all, reading the blog. Without your participation and listenership, this program wouldn't be what I'm trying to make it. Remember to check out email host security which is a site that'll help you navigate the Phishing landscape. This site is sponsored by the Jared Rimer Network and I hope people will learn what it is about, check out the companies and resources and of course the terms.

On TSB 121, we're going to talk about whether it is a good idea to be using various services like 4sqare, facebook and other check in services to check in to places and post to social media. This started after someone complained on Facebook about how the auto checkin broke, and how they wanted to have it work so their friends on the other side of the world can be confident he made it OK. We'll also have news, notes and conversation about other things that people want to talk about as well. Thanks so much for listening! Asshole of the podcast We haven't blogged about this yet, but the article is titled LockBit ransomware suspect arrested in Canada, faces charges in US which comes from Cyberscoop. We'll be sure to blog this one. Other things I went through the blog and we discussed some of the things that have been posted. Make sure you check out the blog for other stuff including this linked article and feel free to comment.

The Security box, podcast 120 has plenty in this program which is over 3 hours in length. We have at least one asshole of the podcast, possibly two, you judge. This podcast talks about the landscape and your money, talking about tools and techniques that you might be able to use to make sure you're as safe as possible. We talk about the podcast scheduling, what's coming up, and the scheduled breaks. Asshole award of the podcast and related content This blog post I title Hacker charged, hacked psychotherapy center, demanded ransome and went after patients to pay leads to an article with a very interesting story. This guy has been charged with ransoming and later bankruptring a psychotherapy center. Apparently, the suspect named has been convicted with over 50k of various cybercrimes since the age of 17. There's more, read the linked blog post and article for complete details. Also in a related asshole of the podcast this blog post tilted We’ve got an update on the raccoon developer talks about an article where the developer of the latest piece of malware got in trouble because his girlfriend decided to post their whereabouts on the all too famous "Instagram." Shoudlv'e thought about this possibly? There are other news things we cover, so visit the blog for complete details.

On this podcast, we cover the launch of my newest project, then get in to social media and the intricacies of it. Hope you enjoy the show! I enjoyed doing this show, and this is one of those that may go over like this one did. Its not common, but it does happen. This is program 119 of this series. Thanks again for listening!

On this podcast, Armando from the Mix and I talk about technology and independence. In no way are we saying to be independent on everything, but research and contacting support when you need it is key. Enjoy the show!

Welcome to podcast 118 of the Security Box. On this show, we're going to talk about books. Not all books may be covered due to time constraints, but we'll list all of the ones here. Question is, what kind of books? These books are dealing with security in one way or another. The list may contain multiple books, and are split up in to authors. We'll have this in a multi-list format where the main list is in author, and sublist will have the books. Books may be available via other sources that the blind and disabled can access including Bookshare, the NLS, and apple books. The NLS Bard page can only be accessed by eligible patrons and will not be linked here. All linked books come from Amazon or its affiliates, but you can search the book titles separately to find the price that fits your budget unless bard has it already. From this list, we do know that BARD only has one book, but that could change. Check Bard often, you never know what will be posted there. Besides that, we'll have news, notes and more. Now, here are the books and thanks for listening!

Hello folks, welcome to the Security Box. On today's program, besides talking about the beta of EMHS which is still in development, we finally touch on something I tried to cover in earlier podcasts. What is that, you say? That's DomainKeys Identified Mail otherwise known as DKIM. We've been needing to cover this for quite awhile, but I'm not familiar if whether we did, and while other topics we've covered on NCSAM this year we've covered in the past, this one I don't think we did. We also cover the news from the blog and other things on participents minds. I hope that you enjoy the program as much as I have bringing it together for you, and thanks so much for listening! We can't do the show without you.

On this program, I'm alone today talking about SMS and its very interesting issues. I'm not saying its a bad thing, but there are things about it that can be of interest. The linked article may need work, but can be used to gain knowledge. Knowledge is power, and we don't cover it word for word. I hope you all enjoy the program as much as I have bringing it to you, and we'll be back next week. The podcast today is sponsored comercial free by The Jared Rimer Network. Visit me on the web to learn more about me and maybe you'll find something of interest.

Welcome to program 115 of the Security box. Today, we talk about domains and SSL and plenty of news stuff too. The first hour and a half of the over 3 hour program is news related, check the blog for complete details on things or subscribe to the TSB list itself. Some of the stuff we talk about is already on the blog, others are not, but plan to be. As far as domains go, when we talked about Phishing we mentioned the fact that I published several resources on checking whether a domain exists and when it was registered and possibly by who. This was in reference to an article talking about Ian Phishing scams that might be out there now. Please be safe! Here are two resources: ICANN Lookup Who Is Lookup from Network Solutions There are other tools to look up domains, and we can't forget about the ICANN web site and their work to keep domains at least here in the states in good working order. Another thing we talked about but not in great detail is Transport Layer Security which SSL is now known as. We're providing the Wikipedia page as a reference since I didn't go in to a lot of detail on it. If people want me to, I can do that. If we've forgotten something that we should mention as part of this discussion, please send a note and let me know about it. There is always something to talk about in this space, and I can't think of everything, or think it may be too technical. You can always contact me through my web site and I thank each and every one of you for participating this week. See you next week!

How 1-Time Passcodes Became a Corporate Liability is the article we'll be referencing, and there is no wrong answer when giving your opinion on this one. This article comes from Brian Krebs, shortly after the fiasco that we didn't talk about last podcast which the article that finally got published covered, his blundering mistake which wasn't IMHO. With that said, we'll have news from around the landscape and we'll see what others within the club have to say about this or anything else on their mind.

Both of these articles are by Krebs on Security and both were very interesting to read. Besides this, we're going to cover the news, we'll see what people have decided to bring up, and we'll see what else we can find for this program. Hope you will enjoy the show, and thanks for listening!

Welcome to program 107 of the Security box series. On this edtion, we're going to talk about something not too many people know about. Its called Gootkit Loader’s and they can be very dangerous. These can contain something called fileless malware which makes detecting them harder. Trend Micro has talked about fileless malware before, and you can put in fileless malware plus adding trend micro to find postings covering this topic. The article we're going to cover on podcast 107 is titled Gootkit Loader’s Updated Tactics and Fileless Delivery of Cobalt Strike and it does come from Trend Micro.

Besides this, we'll see what people in clubhouse or the list want to talk about, and we'll go through news and other things posted as well. Thanks for listening and make it a great day!

Hello flks, I am going to say that this is the first podcast we've done in about 2 months or so, maybe more. I'm happy to finally have something to present today, and this is going to get rather interesting for a 104 minute podcast. Here are the notes! On this episode, >Scalars Publishing has an educational book for learning UEB. They have other books as well, but we talk about the educational book today. How did I find out? Through a student who has asked for some help. Perky Duck from Duxbury Systems is discussed and demoed, and we also have some IOS news for those who don't know. This news is in regards to voices that some may know of, but some may not as we have sighted listeners that may not know. I hope to have another podcast soon! Thanks so much for listening, and I'll be back real soon!

Welcome to podcast 104 of the Security Box program. I hope that each and every one of you enjoyed our look back at the two year anniversary and what might have interested people during the past year. As I prepare for podcast 104, if you, the listener, want to contribute thoughts on what interested you from the past year or even since the show's inception, please contact me through the contact the DJ's page on 986themix.com or listen to the program for full contact details. On this edition of the program, we're going to talk about an older article titled DEA Investigating Breach of Law Enforcement Data Portal. Its a Krebs on Security article which was sent to the Security Box list in the month of May. The sad thing is, we've not heard anything since, and that may not necessarily be a good thing. Besides that, we'll check with listeners who have decided to join us on Clubhouse and other participants to see what has caught their attention through the landscape. If there are questions by people who are new to the program who have basic questions, we always allow those, so please submit them to us or participate live. I don't claim to know everything, and even the best don't, but with all of us working together, we can learn and give some advice to try that might help. I look forward in continuing this program, and I hope that people will at least check it out to see if they find it of value. I thank those people in the industry that post articles that we can ponder, discuss and possibly question. Thanks for listening and make it a great day!

Hello everyone, welcome to the Security bbox, podcast 103. With only one week missed due to commitments, we've reached the two year anniversary of this program on the mix. I hope that we can continue to provide plenty of material as this community still needs to learn what is out there to protect themselves. Nobody is perfect, even yours truly has made mistakes. The question is, do you learn from yours? As we reflect, podcast 52 which was on July 14th of last year, delbt with the water hacks which could have done some serious damage. While we overcame that and learned from that, we've got a bigger issue and that has been the war that Russia has been involved with as Ukraine was its first target and now they're going ahead and targeting other nations. We talked about this war and its potential impacts on this very program and other rooms on Clubhouse. Now, some of what you might see and discussed on this and other circles will be coming true as predicted. No expert said when it would happen and if, but it seems that it is. With that said, today's main topic is going to cover two articles and one man. The first article is titled Meet the Administrators of the RSOCKS Proxy Botnet which was quite a read if I should say so myself. The second one even gets more interesting. Its titled The Link Between AWM Proxy & the Glupteba Botnet and maybe you'll have comments on this. Besides that, we'll have other topics that may not be listed here in our notes, like for example, things that caught people's eye from our list and or blog. Want to subscribe to our list? The Security Box list can be found by clicking on the link and going to its page through our partner, The Mix. I hope that you enjoy the program as much as the JRN and its participants enjoy bringing it to you. Remember, we can learn together. Thanks so much for listening, reading, and participating! Keep learning!

Hello everyone! Welcome to podcast 102 of the podcast. On this edition of the podcast, we'll step through one of the best emails I've ever seen. I saw this at the end of June, and it woke me right up. It is the best email that would prompt an issue that may not be the case, if you actually stop, look and do your due dilligance. blog post As our topic, we're going to talk about the Cyberscoop article Lawmakers want to restrict user data sales to nations like China, Russia which was read. The article will end up getting blogged, so check the blog for thoughts on this one. We'll also see what else comes up in the landscape that people want to talk about as well.

Welcome to podcast 101 of the Security Box Podcast series. On this podcast, we did find another "Asshole of the podcast" award. We also are going to talk about Google finding something very interesting in their research department. Asshole of the Week This time, our Asshole comes from an article by Brian Krebs of Krebs on Security titled “Downthem” DDoS-for-Hire Boss Gets 2 Years in Prison which was quite interesting. Wondering why only two years when DDOS is quite significant and can cause a lot of headaches among what's going on and how to fix it? Google This time, Google reveals sophisticated Italian spyware campaign targeting victims in Italy, Kazakhstan comes from Cyberscoop. Found this article quite interesting, and I bet you do too. Besides that, we'll see what the people on the Clubhouse have to say as well as possibly other things that might not be blogged or sent to the list. Thanks for listening to the show, and we'll see you on another edition!

Welcome to podcast 100 of the Security Box. I can't believe this series is already at 100, and its been growing strong with lots of discussion, and of course comments on things that people have found of interest. I hope that the show can continue to grow, and with partners in the industry, we will continue to bring you things that might not be covered elsewhere in much detail if any. Today, we're going to bring the bonehead award, with an article we'll summarize in a segment called interestingly, the "asshole award of the podcast." For this podcast, the article U.S. marshal used controversial cell phone location service to illegally access data, DOJ says from Cyberscoop. The Marshall definitely needs this award, and you never know who will be next. Don't abuse the privelage of the access you're granted to do your job or you'll possibly get caught. On this episode as well, we'll cover two different topics. The first, Privacy legislation might provide a powerful guard against online identity fraud might have some teeth if everyone is on board. I definitely think that this should be covered because we talk about the fact that companies have our data with no recourse if something goes wrong.. Maybe that'll change? In a related note, we've been getting calls from various folks about vehicle warranties, other notices from companies that don't identify themselves and the like. In an article titled INTERPOL raids hundreds of scammy call centers in sweep it talks about how many different people have been picked up due to the number one thing that gets people, social engineering. If you've not read this article, you should. It might be a start to something that hopefully should go down at some point. Of course, we'll have comments from others who participate in the taping and live broadcast on Wednesdays, and possibly other topics not listed here too. Thanks for reading, participating, and listening! I greatly appreciate your support.
