Technado, Ep. 175: Salt Security’s Roey Eliyahu




Technado with Don Pezet show

Summary: Salt Security’s Roey Eliyahu joined Technado to discuss one of the most vulnerable things security teams often overlook: APIs. They dissected an API issue at Uber that left accounts open to attack. Then, in the news, the guys covered Vint Cerf’s plan for Internet in space, Microsoft throttling availability of their October 2020 Windows 10 update, Ubuntu’s Groovy Gorilla, and a group of hackers stealing from the rich and giving just a little to the poor. Finally, in the run-up to the US elections, they discussed a largely unsuccessful hack from China masquerading as McAfee Antivirus as well as a successful ransomware attack that affected a Georgia county’s election database.
