The show details BlackHat and Unit 42 findings that passkeys on Windows and Chrome can be phished or abused through logging, validation gaps, and malware techniques, undermining “phishing-resistant” claims. It also covers cyber incidents impacting water utilities across at least 12 U.S. states, with manual operations and boil-water advisories but safe drinking water, and Forescout’s count of thousands of exposed Rockwell controllers. Finally, it updates the ColdCard seed-generation flaw with potential losses up to 2,000 BTC and reports indictments tied to a violent crypto “wrench attack.” 00:00 Sponsor NordLayer 00:38 Headlines Passkeys Water Crypto 01:07 Black Hat Cheap Offense 02:43 Rogue AI Incidents 03:18 Passkeys Phished Windows 04:55 Chrome Synced Passkeys Flaws 05:53 Water Utilities Under Attack 08:20 ColdCard Wallet Losses 09:59 Wrench Attack Crypto Robbery 12:24 Wrap Up And Thanks 13:05 Sponsor NordLayer Reminder Cybersecurity Today https://www.technewsday.ca <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/42351645/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/204868130
