SN 1019: EU OS - Troy Hunt Phished, Ransomware List, InControl
- Kuala Lumpur International Airport says no to a ransom attack, switches to whiteboard.
- A tired and jet-lagged Troy Hunt got Phished then listed himself on his own site.
- Cloudflare completely pulls the plug on port 80 (HTTP) API access.
- Malware is switching to obscure languages to avoid detection. FORTH, anyone?
- Password reuse doesn't appear to be dropping. Cloudflare has numbers.
- A listener shares his log of malicious Microsoft login attempts. Why no geofencing?
- 23andMe down for the count (reminder).
- A sobering Ransomware attack & victim listing website. Gulp!
- "InControl" keeps VR planes aloft.
- And the European Union gets serious about a switch to Linux
