À propos de ce contenu audio

In this episode of Cyber Confessions, host Caitlin Sarian (Cybersecurity Girl) sits down with Andy Piazza, Senior Director of Threat Intelligence at Palo Alto Networks Unit 42. Andy reveals how the most sophisticated technical security in the world was outsmarted by a simple human "vibe check."

We dive into a shocking Business Email Compromise (BEC) story where a fraudulent banking transfer was stopped not by a firewall, but because a friend’s email tone was missing its usual "bubbly" energy and signature emojis.

Inside this episode:

  • The "Bubbly" Red Flag: How human intuition caught a scam that security tools missed.

  • North Korean Infiltration: The reality of "Wage Mold," where nation-state operators are getting hired as remote IT workers inside Western companies.

  • The Danger of "Vibe Coding": Why rushing to build apps with AI is creating massive security holes.

  • Jailbreaking LLMs: How scammers trick AI into dumping sensitive customer data.
