Guns are Drawn At The IT Privacy and Security Weekly Update for the Week Ending May 28th., 2024
Episode 191 This week we detonate a mix of updates starting south of the U.S. border, following a tremor into the roots of DNS and then colliding into the 5 precincts of New York City.
We have the incendiary tale of the Mexican cartels and how a hack spilled light on who is arming them.
Next, like our root DNS server, we explode with the 411 on just what another outage of that server could mean to all of us.
From there we reload with a tag story of how Apple presents location data and why you may not like what it’s saying about you.
In the UK we feel the scattershot of facial recognition software entering into our lives. If our face becomes a bar-code, what happens if we are mislabeled?
Then we learn how efficient AI makes a hacking team when a project, scheduled to take three weeks penetrates a major tech firm in just hours.
And we round out with the outburst of something whizzing over your head. This time it is a triumph of good over evil, but we wonder if that story will change over time.
Let's jump into the burst of stories. For this update we’ll be safe, even in the line of fire.
