Welcome to Hacked dAily, the first AI-driven cybersecurity podcast where we dive headfirst into the digital wild west and emerge (mostly) unscathed. Brought to you by Cytadel Cyber, we're here to slice through the clutter and serve you the freshest cyber news with a side of wit and sarcasm—call it our special seasoning for professional audiences.

Today, we're astonished by Google's superhero-like takedown of 3,000 malware-laden YouTube videos. Turns out, enticing folks with cracked software isn't rocket science, but Google was quick to say, "Not today, malware!" Moving on, the "CoPhish" cyber bandits are fishing for OAuth tokens using Copilot Studio agents—because why not have your phisher sound like a friendly developer? Just don't be too charmed by that unwarranted compliment on your code.

HP, in an admirable aim for improvement, paused their software update after it crashed users' abilities to authenticate with Microsoft Entra ID—because who doesn’t love unexpected digital roadblocks? Seriously, though, their timing couldn’t have been more hilariously off. 

Meanwhile, Medusa ransomware group dropped 834 GB of Comcast's private data online after negotiations fell through—guess the hackers missed the memo about basic decency. Lastly, the Shadow Escape 0-Click threat is giving our AI assistants performance anxiety, putting trillions of records at risk. Perhaps our AIs can start practicing their "privacy poker face."

Tune in tomorrow for more digital drama and remember, stay suspicious!

Welcome to Hacked dAily, the first AI-driven cybersecurity podcast by Cytadel Cyber, where we dare to dance with digital disasters, daily. Today, Europol's having a hotline bling panic attack over caller ID spoofing. Seems like the virtual pranksters are making your contact list feel more like a roulette of mystery callers. Guess your mom’s calls really are for a good reason this time.

Next up, Discord's getting a not-so-great cereal upgrade with the RedTiger infostealer. Hackers are living it up like they're at a disguise party, leaving users in a lurch wondering, "Who even am I talking to?"

Then, it’s "HyperRat's" moment in the spotlight—an Android malware that's redefining privacy invasion, offering cybercriminals an espionage all-in-one kit. For us mere mortals, though, it’s less glitz and glam, more grit and panic.

In other headlines, the Qilin ransomware gang's prolific output has reached literary levels. They've made data kidnapping a monthly subscription service—who needs Netflix, right?

Lastly, in a move that surely had OpenAI's digital wizards grumbling into their algorithms, creative geniuses have bypassed Atlas by disguising prompts as URLs. Maybe Hogwarts needs a cybersecurity course?

So, buckle up—it's a hacking rollercoaster and not the fun amusement park kind. Join us, but maybe hold off on that strange phone call.

Welcome to Hacked dAily, the FIRST AI-Driven Cybersecurity Podcast, brought to you by the pragmatic minds at Cytadel Cyber. Prepare for a rollercoaster of tech news with a side of sarcasm and a sprinkle of humor—as long as the bots don't judge.

Today, we've got Microsoft dodging lawsuits like their inbox is cycling through junk mail filters. They've allegedly mastered the art of subscription sneakiness with a lawsuit accusing them of pulling a Houdini on millions of users, proving once and for all, even digital wizards can have tricks go awry.

Next up, Python takes the moral high ground worthy of a caped crusader, rejecting a $1.5 million government grant. Perhaps they feared a plot twist turning their code into a crime-fighting caper written by Hollywood's finest. A lesson in virtue, apparently not everything comes with a price tag.

Meanwhile, Clearview AI seems to be racking up GDPR fines like they're going out of style, setting new records in the EU's frustratingly expensive game of "catch me if you can." One wonders if their PR strategy is simply personal bests in denial.

On the misadventure menu, River City Eye Care inadvertently finds themselves in a digital spectacle over revealing more patient data than initially claimed. Honesty, it seems, is best served clearer than a pirate's eyepatch.

Lastly, in Baltimore, a teen finds his Doritos mistaken for a weapon. AI may need a manual next time—because let’s agree, crunchy snacks are hardly the new frontier of danger.

So plug in for today's dose of disbelief and cybersecurity snark, and may your firewall be strong and your coffee stronger!

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.

In another corner of mischiefville, nation-state hackers have deployed 'Airstalk' in a suspected supply chain attack, making it evident that hacking camp brought home some dubious souvenirs.

Next, we visit MIT Sloan, where their AI ransomware study has been quietly ghosted like an embarrassing high school crush. A researcher called out its accuracy, proving even Ivy League institutions can't avoid the merciless clutches of reality.

Meanwhile, meet BankBot-YNRK and DeliveryRAT, the Bonnie and Clyde of Android Trojans, more interested in your bank details than your selfies. Their spree proves that when it comes to digital thievery, there's no such thing as too much information.

The Nova ransomware group keeps the intrigue flowing, threatening data leaks from Sweden's University of Gävle and Spain's Castilla, sparking fears the industry's darkest secrets might soon become an open book.

Finally, in a case of AI gone wild, cyber bandits are using chatbots to con their way into users’ trust—and data. Let's just say, they're not offering support; they're offering malware gift-wrapped with a friendly AI smile.
