What does cyberwarfare really look like behind the headlines? This week, Roo sits down with Hayley Benedict, a cyber intelligence analyst at RANE , to explore the evolving world of digital conflict. From hacktivists to disinformation specialists, Hayley shares how nation states, criminals, and ideologically driven groups are blurring lines — and why data theft, disruption, and doubt remain the weapons of choice. 🎙️🛰️ In Crash Course, we cut through some industry jargon to explain Zero Trust: never assume, always verify. And in Watchtower Weekly, ransomware gets a 2025 upgrade. We cover LunaLock’s dystopian AI threats against artists, bargain-bin ransoms disrupting Swedish municipalities, and a UK car line halted by a hacker crew mash-up. Plus, #Ask1Password tackles 1Password vs. Apple Passwords, and Hack or Hoax?! brings another almost-too-believable tale. 🧠🕵️♂️📺 🏰 Watchtower Weekly Old-fashioned ransomware has had a glow-up.
