Loading from the Cloud... 

Season 2 of "CRYING OUT CLOUD" is here!

Join our hosts, Eden Naftali and Amitai Cohen, as they dive into the latest cloud stories that we can't wait to share with you

Here's a sneak peek into the season's opening:
 
🚗 Mercedes-Benz Source Code Exposure:
A public GitHub Repo was exposed - allowing unauthorized access to the company's internal servers, including AWS and Azure subscriptions. The credentials remained publicly accessible for 3-4 months. 😱

🌨️ Midnight Blizzard Hits Microsoft:
Russian actors (Midnight Blizzard) got into Microsoft's network and stole employee emails, finding a misconfigured account with a weak password. Among other things, they tried to find out what Microsoft knew about their activity.

🔐 Ivanti Vulnerabilities:
Ivanti's VPN products exposed vulnerabilities, allowing remote code execution and authentication bypass, exploited by a Chinese Threat Actor.

💰 Proof-of-work isn't the only strategy used by #cryptojackers. 

In a cryptocurrency world dominated by Bitcoin and Ethereum, there are lesser-known coins like #Chia that use massive storage space instead of heavy computation – a game-changer, right?

💡 What are the risks? Proof-of-storage coins bring fresh challenges. Watch out for unexpected cost hikes and suspicious connections to subdomains of chia.net.

🕵️ Our Wiz TIP: Keep a close eye on costs, mining binaries, and network lookups.
