Apropos of nothing… This is a really excellent write up on Cell-site simulators/ISMI Catchers (aka stingrays) and how they can be used to “gather the IMSI (and later the identity) of anyone in a specific area.” #TheMoreYouKnow sls.eff.org/technologies...

Security researchers are warning of a possible zero-day vulnerability in TZ and NSa-series SonicWall firewalls with SSLVPN enabled that is being actively exploited to bypass MFA and deploy ransomware. Firmware versions 7.2.0-7015 and earlier appear to be impacted.
www.huntress.com/blog/exploit...
A trick I picked up from @k8em0.bsky.social some years ago: Always ask if they have the technical means, such as logs, to detect evidence of exfiltration (and/or exploitation)?
"No evidence" doesn't mean data wasn't taken. It can simply mean that they don't have the ability to check.
Great news that Japanese police have put together a free decryptor for the Phobos ransomware (helped no doubt by arrested of suspected members of the gang, and the seizure of its infrastructure)

Broadcom is warning that a trio of VMware vulnerabilities (tracked as CVE-2025-22224, CVE-2025-22225, and CVE-2025-22226) are currently being actively exploited in the wild.

Great article highlighting the frustration a lot of IT teams are experiencing right now with A.I.
“Google has made opting in to generative A.I. the default. You have to go the extra mile and wait, sometimes hours, in the support queue to even have the option to opt out.”
slate.com/technology/2...
Copilot should have been an opt-in feature to begin with, but the fact that Microsoft did not build a way for IT to disable it right “out-of-the-box” is incredibly irresponsible.
Many companies are already blocking AI tools only for them to learn that the call is now coming from inside the house.
100% this!
