Last week on Malwarebytes Labs, our podcast featured Eva Galperin who talked to us about defending online anonymity and speech.
We wrote about how Ryuk ransomware has developed a worm-like capability, how Exchange servers are attacked by Hafnium zero-days, 21 million free VPN users’ data was exposed, how China’s RedEcho was accused of targeting India’s power grids, whether Google’s Privacy Sandbox will take the bite out of tracking cookies, and how a Chrome fix patches an in-the-wild zero-day.
