Threat Source newsletter (Jan. 12, 2023): Did ChatGPT write our newsletter?
Summary: Cisco Talos' Jan. 12, 2023 Threat Source newsletter reports Microsoft's monthly security update disclosed 98 vulnerabilities, of which 11 are Critical and 87 Important, with none rated Moderate. The same edition notes that Maternal & Family Health Services, a Pennsylvania nonprofit health provider, confirmed a ransomware attack exposed personal data of almost half a billion individuals, including current and former patients, employees and vendors.
Why it matters: A single ransomware attack on a Pennsylvania nonprofit health provider exposed nearly half a billion people's personal data in the second week of January, and the same newsletter flags that the CircleCI breach may reach other third-party applications, prompting researchers to urge rotation of all secrets stored in CircleCI.
