from Crestvale Newsroom · host Crestvale Newsroom
Send us Fan Mail A breach tied to DigiCert has put code signing certificates in attacker hands, turning a core trust signal into a potential attack vector. At the same time, ransomware is now disrupting real world operations, and vendor risk is showing up in places many teams assume are safe. This episode breaks down why trust in signed software can no longer be assumed, how ransomware is shifting toward direct revenue disruption, and why identity and secrets platforms need deeper scrutiny. The common thread is control. Who has it, how it is verified, and where it quietly fails. We also cover CrowdStrike's move to absorb XM Cyber's technology, a ransomware driven production shutdown at Fairlife, and new concerns around Passwork's origins.
