Would you use a computer without any kind of antivirus? Would you put your personal photos on that device? Use it to text and email? Access your bank? It turns out: you're probably already doing all of these things. The most sensitive, least protected device in your life is in your pocket right now.

In our previous episodes, you heard the term "vulnerabilities" more than once. But what exactly does it mean? What stands behind this big word?
For such terms and questions, we create the format of "Cyber Academy''. In each "Cyber Academy' episode, we’ll bring you a single topic - usually a basic term, an idea or a technology related to cybersecurity - and cover the basics of what you need to know about that topic, in order to better understand cybersecurity and its complexities.
So, enough with the introductions - let’s dive straight into our first topic: Vulnerabilities.

In 2020 hospitals were hit with ransomware, corporations with phishing attacks, and we saw one of the biggest hacks ever conceived: the SolarWinds breach. It was a groundbreaking year, so in this episode we're summarizing the most important things you need to know. A SparkNotes for cybersecurity in 2020.

When the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines were first approved, almost nobody could get one. Meanwhile, on the darknet, cybercriminals were offering deals on mass shipments. Most people still aren't inoculated today, yet the darknet market for vaccines is thriving.
Is the darknet getting vaccines while the rest of us can't? What's actually going on? -
In the summer of 2016, a group of anonymous hackers hacked into the NSA and released some of the most powerful exploits ever developed. The ramifications of that leak would be felt for years to come, in some of the most destructive cyber attacks on record.
But even all these years later there are mysteries yet unsolved, and stories that seem to contradict what we thought we knew all along. -
The recent SolarWinds breach was one of the most sophisticated, complex cyber operations in history. By the end 18,000 companies, including a dozen U.S. federal agencies, were compromised. How did the hackers pull it off?

A man goes on Dubai T.V to discuss national security in the Middle East. 1,000 miles north, a social activist uses Telegram to organize anti-government activity. 5,000 miles north, an immigrant applies for a driver's license in Sweden. None of these people know one another, but they're all about to fall victim to the same attack. An attack that changes the way we view one of the world's biggest powers.

DNS is the phone book of the internet--it's how your computer knows where to go to reach the website you want to visit. It's no stretch to say that, without functioning DNS, the internet as we know it could not exist. So imagine what would happen if you could completely compromise it..

Most people place their virtual assistants in their living room or bedroom. This makes it very easy to interact with cyberspace while you're laying around, watching T.V., or doing dishes. It also means that you're allowing a listening device into the most sensitive spaces in your home. What if somebody were able to take control of that device? To make commands on your behalf, interact with your personal data, and listen to you when you don't realize it?

When Gal Elbaz came across a modest GIF parser sitting in a remote corner of GitHub, he wasn't exactly looking for trouble. But he found it. What was so troublesome about this parser in particular? It wasn't popular, it was created by some unknown programmer, and it didn't have any extraordinary qualities. Except it was familiar. Gal had seen this code before...
-
Major tech companies understand that their brands are only as strong as they are safe to use, so they set bounties on vulnerabilities: hundreds of thousands of dollars, a million dollars, to any programmer who can find a hole in their sites. White hat hackers comb every line of code to try and earn the grand prize, and in return, the companies gain peace of mind knowing the smartest minds out there can’t break in.
You might think, then: if so much money goes towards securing these platforms, they must be unbreakable. But you’d be surprised what’s out there.
In the next few episodes of CPRadio, we're going to run through--step by step--how to hack some of the world's biggest apps. We begin, here, with Tik Tok.

In 2015, Khalifa Haftar--a fierce military general, known as "Libya's most potent warlord"--began an operation to take over the state of Libya. He led an insurgent army, slowly taking over the country's southern lands, headed straight for the capital of Tripoli. All the while, 'Khalifa Haftar' on Facebook was publishing updates about the war, even top-secret documents, to thousands of fans.
Why was one of the world's most significant military leaders posting classified documents to Facebook? He wasn't, of course. But what was actually going on was just as strange.
-
A new kind of man-in-the-middle attack is emerging, and it may just be the most lucrative method of hacking ever conceived.
-
The first publicized case of Ccoronavirus in the United States occurred in late February, 2020. Almost immediately, a different spread began: hackers, leveraging the global panic to spread new kinds of malicious cyber threats. Whether the new, COVID-related malware succeeded would depend on one question: does fear and uncertainty make us more hackable?
-
Phishing is the oldest trick in the book—we're all familiar with it by now. Yet for the past few years, Canadian companies had been falling victim to an ordinary phishing campaign. What made this threat different?
-
It began with a "Google" security email. But the trail of breadcrumbs traced back to something much, much bigger: a laser-targeted hacking campaign that put its targets' lives in danger.
-
Last year, iOS, Zynga, Facebook and Capital One were hacked. Personal information from over a billion people were exposed in data breaches, and new kinds of attacks we've hardly seen before came to dominate cyberspace. Check Point reviews the biggest trends, events and stories of the past year in its annual report, out now.
-
The world's premier cyber espionage agency built one of the world's most advanced cyber tools. When it was leaked, most of the security sector was stunned. Hidden away at the other end of the world, however, a worthy adversary had already deployed the same attack tool. How'd they got their hands on it? And who's been spying on whom this whole time?

The most popular video game in the world has a problem: a black market economy has developed around its in-game currency. Cybercriminals are hacking user accounts, juicing credit cards, and selling virtual currency for real-life dollars and cents. To ensure fun and safety for players, the cycle must be stopped.

The Middle East is a turbulent and explosive region, to put it mildly – and that is why when Aseel Kial, a Malware Analyst at CheckPoint, came across a new malware targeting ISIS operatives, she wasn't terribly surprised. The surprise came, however, when she found out who is behind the target attack, and the social engineering techniques they used. An ISIS-themed birthday cake, anyone?…
