Scam Week Spotlight: $1.5Billion… Gone in minutes. What looked like a “routine” transfer at Bybit became one of crypto’s biggest scams.

This week on the podcast, we discuss key findings from IBM and the Ponemon Institute's 2025 Cost of a Breach Report, including a deep analysis of AI impacts in cybersecurity. Before that, we cover Norway's claim that Russian-aligned hackers opened a floodgate in one of their dams. We also discuss a vulnerability in Microsoft 365 Copilot that allowed the AI to delete its own audit logs. The 443 Security Simplified is a weekly podcast that gets inside the minds of leading white-hat hackers and security researchers, covering the latest cybersecurity headlines and trends.

Inside the SonicWall SSLVPN Attacks In this week’s episode of The 443, Marc Laliberte and Corey Nachreiner break down: The recent SonicWall SSLVPN exploits What we know so far and how attackers are getting in The risks for organizations relying on vulnerable VPN gateways Plus: a WinRAR zero-day and a new ChatGPT vulnerability you should know about.

This week on the podcast, we discuss key findings from a DefCon presentation from researchers at AmberWolf titled ZeroTrust, Total Bust and what it means for Zero Trust Network Access. After that, we review a new vulnerability in the FortiWeb WAF before ending with a quick update from Google Project Zero on a new vulnerability disclosure policy.

This week on the podcast, we discuss some recent research into a new zero day vulnerability in the popular WinRAR utility under active exploit. After that, we give a round up on everything we know about the SonicWall SSLVPN attacks from the last few weeks before ending with a review of a new ChatGPT vulnerability.

This week on the podcast, Corey Nachreiner and guest host Ryan Estes, from WatchGuard’s malware analysis team, cover the cybersecurity news for last week. We chat about AI-based site cloaking tools on the underground, how Domain Tools found potentially unwanted executables hiding in DNS TXT records, and a Chinese state-sponsored set of targeted phishing campaigns going after the Taiwanese semiconductor industry and its supply chain. Join us to learn more and discuss how we can protect ourselves from similar threats.

This week on the podcast, Corey Nachreiner and guest host Ryan Estes from WatchGuard’s malware analysis team explore WatchGuard’s recently released Q1 Internet Security Report (ISR). As always with the ISR, we highlight the top malware, network attacks, and malicious domains that our products see, but with our guest host, the author of the Endpoint section, we dive much deeper into all the threats arriving at our customers’ endpoints. Listen in for the latest threat landscape trends and some practical tips to stay safe from the most recent threats.

Cybersecurity decision-makers face a growing challenge: defending against a rising tide of threats without drowning in operational complexity. Designed for large security teams, SIEM platforms often introduce more chaos than clarity, burdening small teams with high costs, complex deployments, and overwhelming data. In this webinar, Stephen Helm and Ricardo Arroyo will discuss the core differences between SIEM and XDR (Extended Detection and Response) and explain why XDR is emerging as the smart, scalable choice for modern MSPs and lean IT security teams.

First, we look back at Microsoft’s major shift to remove endpoint protection from the Windows kernel. When we first covered it, it was a proposed change—now it's happening, and the implications are big. Next, we revisit a segment on GPT-4o and how generative AI is fueling the next wave of social engineering attacks. It's smarter, faster, and more convincing than ever. And finally, a refresher on the arrest of a Scattered Spider leader. While that made headlines, the group's activity hasn’t slowed down, they're still very much on the radar, as we discussed just last week.

Think building a SOC is out of reach? Think again. With MDR and AI working together, MSPs can now deliver 24/7 protection through what’s becoming an autonomous SOC – one that scales without increasing overhead or alert fatigue. This webinar will show how the modern SOC is already within reach, and how to start offering it. You’ll learn.
