Cloud security, telecoms companies compromised, and can someone else access your Nest camera?

Summary: In this week’s Cyber Security Brief, it’s episode 52, and the last one before we take a short summer break – we will be back with you in August, with more essential stories and trends from the world of cyber security. This week, we discuss the Cloud Security Threat Report that was recently released by Symantec, reports that APT10 compromised the networks of at least 10 telecoms companies, and the unusual circumstances that led to the arrest of a member of the Anonymous Belgium hacking group. Also, how a bug allowed the past owners of Nest cameras to spy on current owners, even after a factory reset. Finally, as the value of Bitcoin surges again, we have two cryptocurrency-related stories as two brothers are arrested in relation to the massive Bitfinex hack that occurred in 2016, and a new coinminer is emulating Linux to target both Windows and Mac systems. Don’t forget, while we are off air, we will still be posting blogs and tweets, so make sure to follow us on Twitter (@ThreatIntel), and to read our blogs at https://www.symantec.com/blogs/threat-intelligence and on Medium at https://medium.com/threat-intel.
