SN616: Things Are Getting Worse

from Security Now - 16k MP3 Hosted by TWiT

This week we discuss clever malware hiding its social media communications. The NSA documents the Russian election hacking two-factor authentication bypass; meanwhile, other Russian attackers leverage Google's own infrastructure to hide their spoofing. Tavis finds more problems in Microsoft's anti-malware protection; a cryptocurrency stealing malware; more concerns over widespread Internet-connected camera design; malware found to be exploiting Intel's AMT motherboard features; the new danger of mouse-cursor hovering; Apple's iCloud sync security claims; Azure changes their CA; a bunch of catch-up miscellany; and a bit of "closing the loop" feedback from our listeners.
