Is Your Browser Extension Secretly Spying on You?

Windows 10 support is ending, and that’s just the start of this week’s cybersecurity shake-ups. In this episode of The Awareness Angle, we break down what this means for businesses and everyday users, plus the growing threat of malicious OAuth apps targeting Microsoft 365 accounts. We also dive into the re-emergence of the high-profile Disney Slack breach and what it reveals about security gaps in major organisations.Beyond the headlines, we explore hidden risks, like how vulnerabilities in ChatGPT are being exploited, why downloading cracked software is a ticking time bomb (hello, Arcane Infostealer), and the dangers lurking in seemingly harmless browser extensions, TikTok is rolling out security awareness on MFA, a story on Google’s dark web monitoring, and we discuss the importance of clear, effective communication in security and why normalising security discussions can make all the difference.🕒 Timestamps00:00 Episode Introduction02:27 Windows 10 End of Life: Concerns & Impact05:38 Malicious OAuth Apps Targeting Microsoft 36507:20 ClickFix Fake Captcha Risk: Don't Paste in the Run box10:14 Disney Data Breach: Misunderstandings & Impact15:27 Exploited ChatGPT Vulnerabilities: Risks & Responses21:29 Arcane Infostealer & Cracked Software Risks26:30 Comments - The Words We Choose Matter29:40 National Cyber Security Show30:53 Transparency in Cyber - Eliot from Hoxhunt's Freaky Friday36:50 Browser Extension Security Risks45:28 TikTok’s Security Awareness Campaign49:52 Google's Domain Checks51:57 Google’s Dark Web Monitoring56:10 Vivida Reels - Exciting New Awareness Coming Soon💬 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check Out This Episode's Discussion Points⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📧 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🔗⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ riskycreative.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📙 About The Awareness AngleA CYBERSECURITY PODCAST where we talk about SECURITY AWARENESS and security education.
