The meteoric rise of DeepSeek, Clop ransomware goes wild, and a hacker retires

  • Summary

  • In this episode of the Cyber Uncut podcast, hosts David Hollingworth and Daniel Croft look back on their week reporting on cyber crime in Australia and abroad.

    • Croft opens the show with a round-up of the biggest story of the week – Chinese AI platform DeepSeek. From how it works, why it’s trashed NVIDIA’s stock, and the very real security concerns, DeepSeek is going to be a story for some time.
    • Hollingworth then looks at the recent spate of ransomware posts made by the Clop gang – it promised last year that it had stolen a lot of data via vulnerabilities in Cleo’s file transfer software, and over the weekend, the gang posted the details of 60 victims, including three Australian firms.
    • Finally, after talking about the dangers of mistaken identity in cyber crime reporting, the pair talk about infamous hacker IntelBroker and his decision to retire from the role of admin on a popular hacking forum.
