State of (in)security - Week 30, 2025
During the week of July 21-28, 2025, cybersecurity incidents increased with 27 data breach events and 11 vulnerability advisories affecting 4.94 million individuals. Major breaches are at Allianz Life Insurance (impacting most of their 1.4 million customers) and a supply chain attack on Amazon's Q Developer extension that planted system-wiping commands. Healthcare is the most targeted sector with 6 incidents. Ransomware, system misconfigurations, and third-party compromises dominate the attack vectors.
**Be very careful (and ideally DON'T USE) AI assistants. The AI source code ecosystem is far from stable, and the race to deploy more features causes a lot of problems and vulnerabilities that you are bringing to your own systems.**
