Episode 320  of the Kaspersky podcast dives into X, scammers, Android malware, Elon Musk (again) Cisco and much more!

The latest episode of the Transatlantic Cable podcast kicks off with news that Twitter X has started a trial in selected countries, charging users $1 a year in order to access the platform. The official reason for the move is to cut down on bot activity, but some say that it’s a step too far.  From there, the team discuss a fascinating story around how some businesses have outsourced training A.I’s to workers, for pennies.

The final two stories look at a vulnerability in CISCO’s IOS XE software (classed as a 10 out of 10 for severity) and how hackers are already looking to leverage it, and another story around how scammers are using a fake emergency tool in order to spread malware.
