153M Driver's Licenses for Sale, 9.5M-Patient Breach, and CISA Drops Key Security Assessments
The episode reports the FBI investigating Nexus, a dark web service selling scans of over 153 million U.S. and Canadian driver's licenses and other identity documents, with evidence suggesting near real-time exfiltration tied to IDscan.net before Nexus abruptly disappeared.
It also covers a breach at healthcare SaaS provider Aesto Health affecting 9.54 million individuals, exposing extensive personal and medical data, with delayed confirmation and notifications and 24 months of Experian monitoring offered.
The show details CISA ending six free critical-infrastructure cybersecurity assessments amid workforce reductions, raising concerns given recent targeting of U.S. water systems and warnings about AI-generated exploitation scripts against Siemens PLCs.
Additional updates include Plex urging immediate patching of undisclosed vulnerabilities and Slovenia's HIT gradually reopening casinos after a cyberattack forced a three-day shutdown.
