Last week on Malwarebytes Labs we discussed VPN Android apps, how even the FBI has to deal with insider threats, Chrome’s Incognito mode, new rules for critical infrastructure spurred by the Colonial Pipeline attack, how to delete your Twitter account, what encryption is, how healthcare service faces test of willpower with ransomware authors, how certified PDFs can be falsified and weaponized, how the threat actors behind SolarWinds are at it again, a threat spotlight about Conti ransomware, and what is RMM software?
In our podcast Lock and Code we shone a light on dark patterns with Carey Parker.
