Show Notes

Catch up on the cybersecurity and tech news of the week with Don, Dan, and Sophie as they cover the latest. This week in tech, a data startup secured funding to build a data center on the moon, various Chinese graphic card brands started selling on mainstream platforms in the US, and GPT-level-3 AI models can now be run on laptops, phones, and even a Raspberry Pi. In security news this week, our tinfoil hat article is all about AI-generated Youtube videos promoting info-stealing malware. In this week’s D’oh!” segment, a flaw in the Bitwarden autofill feature potentially exposes passwords to hackers. Finally, in “Who Got Pwned?”, data protection company Acronis was infiltrated by a hacker who claimed he just wanted to humiliate them.
