Ransomware attackers leverage the Microsoft Exchange Server vulns, WeLeakInfo users hit by data breach, and ransomware payments increase
On this week’s Cyber Security Brief podcast, Brigid O Gorman and Dick O’Brien discuss how ransomware attackers are now attempting to leverage the vulnerabilities in Microsoft Exchange Server. We also talk about an interesting interview given by one of the ReEvil ransomware gang to Recorded Future, evidence that ransomware payments increased over the last year, and the users of WeLeakInfo falling victim to their own data breach. Also, we warn U.S. taxpayers to be on the lookout for phishing campaigns at this time of year, and the hacker who made headlines a few weeks ago for hacking security cameras used in Tesla offices and elsewhere is indicted on numerous hacking charges in the U.S.
