Aussie fined over deepfakes, Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters goes wild, and Asahi hacker revealed

Cyber Uncut

In this episode of the Cyber Uncut podcast, Daniel Croft and David Hollingworth walk through the latest in AI news, with Deloitte paying money back to the NSW government for an AI report, hacking news, with a deep dive into just who Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters might be, and the Qilin ransomware gang taking responsibility for the Asahi hack.

Croft and Hollingworth begin by talking about AI hallucinations stinging Deloitte, flood victims getting caught up in a ChatGPT data breach, and a first-of-its-kind fine levied against an Australian creator of deepfake pornography.

The two then cover the week in cyber crime, tallying up some of the latest victims of Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters, the shadowy links between that group and another “new” hacking group, and more cyber woes for Western Sydney University.

Good news is thin on the ground this month, but Croft and Hollingworth find some in the fact that Asahi Japan is bringing its processes back online, as the Qilin RaaS operation takes responsibility for the attack.
