SN819: The WiFi Frag Attacks

from Security Now - 16k MP3 Hosted by TWiT

This week we follow-up on last week's "News from the Darkside" with a surprising amount of happenings including the dark web's rejection of further ransomware. We look at blockchain analytics which are used to follow the dark money, the mixed signals now coming from the Darkside group and a live list of more than 2000 ransomware attacks during the past two years from the dark web. We cover last week's Patch Tuesday that you won't want to miss. We have a bit of miscellany, including the "Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force" which is actually a thing, and some closing-the-loop feedback from our listeners regarding last week's Andy Weir's "Hail Mary" book mention. Then we take a close look at the biggest non-Colonial Pipeline news from last week: a new round of research which revealed a range of attacks on WiFi's security.
