Episode Synopsis

In this chilling Halloween special of Reimagining Cyber, cybersecurity expert Tyler Moffitt counts down the nastiest pieces of malware that defined 2025 — and the identity-driven attacks reshaping the threat landscape.From AI-powered social engineering to ransomware “lawyer buttons”, this year’s cybercriminals blurred the line between hacking networks and hacking people. Tyler breaks down how attacks moved inside the perimeter — exploiting trust, voice, and identity — and what that means for businesses of every size.Plus, Tyler shares a realistic survival playbook for modern threats — from identity hardening and privilege reduction to tabletop drills against voice scams and “click-fix” lures.“The perimeter is now your people,” Tyler warns — and AI is supercharging the threat.This episode drops ahead of Tyler’s live webinar on October 30, where he’ll go even deeper into the 2025 malware report.Link to the webinar:https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/8241/646661?q=smb-cyber-securityFollow or subscribe to the show on your preferred podcast platform.Share the show with others in the cybersecurity world.Get in touch via [email protected] As featured on Million Podcasts' Best 100 Cybersecurity Podcast and Best 70 Chief Information Security Officer CISO Podcasts rankings.
