Storm⚡️Watch | Healthcare Data at Risk & Chinese Hackers Exploit 30-Year-Old Law
Summary: A Censys study cited in this episode found more than 3,800 DICOM servers publicly exposed on the internet, putting data from 59 million patients at risk. The episode also covers Chinese hackers compromising the wiretap systems of major U.S. telecom and internet providers, a breach tied to the 30-year-old Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA).
