Russian Data Centers Bombed - 2026-10-12 - Talkin' Bout [Infosec] News | Lyssna här

The BHIS crew discusses MonsterCloud’s ransomware decryption fraud, a Canadian cybersecurity executive’s arrest, and strikes on Russian data centers linked to a sharp decline in Yandex bot traffic. AI reverse engineering takes center stage as the team explores game recreations, commercial software clones, Linux vulnerability discovery, and the changing economics of software. They also examine AI-powered threat hunting and deception, a cyberattack on French supermarket refrigeration, fake Claude Code installers, and a controversial critique of passkeys. The episode closes with a preview of questions about AI-generated mathematics and encryption security.
