Synthetic identity fraud blends real and fake data to form convincing fake identities—often with stolen children's info. Hard to detect, it causes billions in losses, harms credit systems, and affects real people. ☠️ #cybercrime

New HIPAA rules in 2025 bring stricter #cybersecurity, with MFA, encryption, and risk analysis now required. Focus areas include telehealth, AI, vendor oversight, and stronger patient data access and privacy protections. 🏥

GenAI is fueling a new #cybersecurity risk: attackers exploit AI "hallucinations" by uploading fake, malware-laced code that developers trust too easily. Clear AI transparency and software supply chain standards are urgently needed. 🧑‍💻

88% of CISOs worry about supply chain risk, yet most don’t monitor beyond direct vendors. With 3rd-party attacks surging, true #cybersecurity resilience means real-time visibility and deeper vendor collaboration. 🌍

🤖 Agentic AI is changing #cybersecurity by detecting threats and automating response. But with bad data or poor oversight, it can backfire. Smart use and strong governance are key as adoption grows. 🛡️

A memory bug in servers let researchers secretly watch the malware group's actions for 3 years. They found stolen data, private keys, and hacker info—showing even cybercriminals can slip up with their own security. #cybercrime

Heroku’s #outage on June 10 impacted also Cyberday’s app availability. No data was compromised, but it served as a valuable insight to review our incident management processes. 🚨

Checking boxes won’t stop breaches. Treating vulnerability scans as a compliance task gives a false sense of security. Real protection means continuous, risk-based action—not just passing audits. 🚨 #vulnerability

[Aleksi Pulkkanen @apulkkanen]

In 2025, compliance is no longer just a legal checkbox—it’s a core business priority. With stricter global laws and rising threats, staying ahead means embedding security and accountability into every layer of your organization. #cybersecurity

[Aleksi Pulkkanen @apulkkanen]

DORA and NIS2 are reshaping cybersecurity in the EU—but many orgs are still unprepared. Compliance isn't just a legal task; it's about building resilience, trust, and readiness for real-world threats. 👻 #cybersecurity

🚀 Critical flaws in NASA’s open source tools could allow remote attacks. Weak SDLC practices and lack of response to reports raise serious concerns about exploit risks. #cybercrime

[Aleksi Pulkkanen @apulkkanen]

NIST has launched a new metric—Likely Exploited Vulnerabilities (LEV)—to better assess if CVEs have been exploited. It builds on EPSS, offering more detailed insight to improve vulnerability prioritization. #vulnerability

💸 A fake trading platform scamming victims out of €3M was shut down in a global police operation. The case shows how cybercrime crosses borders—and why international cooperation is key. 🌍 #cybercrime

Most EU countries missed the NIS2 transposition deadline, creating legal uncertainty for businesses in scope. But waiting is risky—proactive compliance planning is still the safest route.⭐️🛡️ #cybersecurity

Meta’s plan to train AI on 20 years of EU user data is facing legal fire, which argues it violates GDPR by skipping explicit consent. The battle over AI, data rights, and ‘legitimate interest’ may soon head to court. 👀 #privacy
