Listen "🔑 Australian Banking Breach and Infostealer Defence Strategies"
Episode Synopsis
This week's Datapro Newsletter discusses the significant increase in infostealer malware, which covertly steals sensitive data such as passwords and financial details. It highlights a major incident in Australia where 31,000 banking credentials were compromised from customers of the "Big Four" banks through individual device infections, not a central breach. The text explains the threat landscape of these malicious programmes, noting their rapid growth and the shift to new dominant malware families sold as a service. Finally, it outlines how data automation platforms and specific security practices can be used by data engineers to mitigate these risks and enhance enterprise security against such attacks.
