Smashing Security podcast #436: The €600,000 gold heist, powered by ransomware

Ransomware doesn’t just freeze computers - it can silence alarms too. And when the Natural History Museum in Paris went dark, thieves helped themselves to €600,000 worth of gold in a daring late-night heist. Meanwhile, developers have a new headache: a worm dubbed “Shai Hulud” has wriggled its way through more than 180 npm packages, quietly stealing secrets. But it’s not all doom and gloom - unless you count your kitchen appliances turning into ad billboards. All this and more is discussed in episode 436 of the award-winning "Smashing Security" podcast with cybersecurity veteran Graham Cluley, and his special guest Zoë Rose.
