Meta buys out Moltbook, and understanding insider threats with special guests from Clayton Utz

from Cyber Uncut · host Momentum Media

This week on Cyber Uncut, David Hollingworth and Daniel Croft unpack the week's cyber and AI news and entertain some very special guests in the studio to break down how insider threats work and how CISOs can defend against them. The pair kick off the podcast discussion by breaking down Meta's move to buy agentic AI chat platform Moltbook and how its developers have now become senior Meta AI staff, before moving on to have a look at how Pornhub has responded to eSafety's new age verification measures. Hollingworth then welcomes three fantastic guests to the podcast: Brenton Steenkamp, lead partner, heading up law firm Clayton Utz's cyber security practice; Andreas Ostenfeldt, director in Clayton Utz's risk advisory practice; and their guest, Lou Bladel, the global director of insider threat at Uber and a former FBI agent. Cyber Uncut's guests go into detail covering how insider threats work, what motivates insiders to go bad, and how CISOs can outline the challenge to their boards. Hollingworth also asks Bladel to outline his thoughts on cyber threats emerging from the fighting in Iran, before a quick chat about the risks that agentic AI can pose. Hollingworth and Croft then close out the podcast looking at the UK government voting down a move to introduce Australian-style social media age verification laws – for now. Enjoy, The Cyber Uncut team

Learn. Protect. Tales from the Crypt Chris Harvey Welcome to the Crypt... Mrs Clayton, Mr Maitland, Mr Elliot, Mr Jason, Mr Rogers... Beyond the doors there is a chamber hollowed out of solid stone, a chamber lit by torches, huge with flat rocks scattered about, and with something vaguely resembling a table at the far end. Beyond the table stands a throne made from slabs of uncut stone. If there is any way out of this chamber, other than the door by which you have entered, it is not visible... in other words, ladies and gentlemen - you are trapped! TALES FROM THE CRYPT! Guaranteed to keep you awake into the dark and lonely night!Trapped in catacombs that smell of ancient death, five forsaken people - four men and a woman - pour out the foul secrets of their fetid souls to a strange, sinister, black-robed monk...Joanne... who wanted one thing from Santa Claus - murder!Maitland... forever doomed to a living, waking nightmare...Elliot... this heartless young man received visitors from The Volley Bubble Ci Michel Ever wondered what life as a professional volleyball player looks like? Sounds like? Smells like? (I can't help you there...) But I can bring you real, candid and (mostly) uncut conversations between professional female volleyball players. 10-year pro player, 2012 Olympian and YouTube creator, Ci Michel (thats me!) is road-trippin' though Europe on a mission to shed light on pro volleyball, the 2020 CoVID season, and life in the 'Volley Bubble'... Sometimes silly, sometimes serious, but always bubbly.
