Airline Breach Fallout, AI Data Fails, and Ransomware on the Rise
In this episode of the Security Squawk Podcast, Bryan Hornung, Randy Bryan, and Reginald Andre break down three major cybersecurity stories that show just how messy 2025 has become for data protection. Randy covers the WestJet breach that exposed more than 1.2 million customers, proving even major airlines can't keep turbulence out of their networks. Andre unpacks how the NSW government accidentally uploaded flood victims' personal data to ChatGPT, turning an AI experiment into a privacy nightmare. Bryan closes with new research showing ransomware attacks are climbing again just as fewer companies renew their cyber insurance — the perfect setup for costly business shutdowns. The team shares insights, lessons, and a few laughs as they explain what these stories mean for business owners, IT pros, and MSPs trying to stay ahead of the next big hit. ️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
