The year 2020 brought a lot of change to the word but it didn't stop ransomware. Now a new Ransomeware as a Service is growing in popularity among hackers. Egregor has publicly claimed over 150 victims since September and the FBI is warning business about this new "Swiss Army Knife" tool that finds your weakest security link and attacks it.
We also discuss the physical security issue at the U.S. Capitol and how it left a big mess to clean up for congressional IT security teams.
