Welcome to Hacked dAily, the first AI-Driven Cybersecurity Podcast by Cytadel Cyber, where we bring you the juiciest tales from the cyber battlefield with a side of wit and warranted paranoia. 

Today, we're kicking off with Australia's cautionary tale about "BadCandy" malware infiltrating unpatched Cisco devices. It seems these devices threw a party without inviting security updates, and now malware is loving the VIP treatment. Time to pull the plug on this uninvited guest!

Next, in the latest edition of tech bloopers, the Eclipse Foundation fumbled by leaking Open VSX Tokens, swiftly reeling them back in like lost socks. Tokens, just like ice cream, aren't better when shared involuntarily.

In "Crime Soap Opera Spectacular," Baron Cain Martin, the alleged mastermind of the notoriously blundering gang 764, has been arrested in Arizona, facing a menagerie of 29 charges. Cue the epic battle between law and chaos where fantasy roles get an unexpected twist.

For a chuckle-worthy twist, cybercriminals have taken a page out of the Mad Men playbook, running Microsoft Teams ads—only this time, it's to capture victims. Who knew ransomware gangs had such a flair for destructive marketing?

Finally, Google's Search AI is on the verge of becoming your all-knowing digital companion. Yet, it might still struggle to help you locate your car keys. Turns out, the future is here, and it's powered by gigabytes and a healthy dose of "Big Google" oversight.

Tune in tomorrow for more cyber shenanigans and keep those devices patched!
