PODCAST: Meta fuels its new AI with Facebook content, UK retailers suffer ransomware spree, and LockBit gets hacked

In this episode of the Cyber Uncut podcast, David Hollingworth and Daniel Croft discuss Meta’s newly launched AI that will be powered by Facebook, DeepSeek is back in the news, a horror week of hacks for some massive UK retail chains, LockBit, and the wonderful day and night that was last week’s Australian Cyber Summit and Australian Cyber Awards.

  • Hollingworth and Croft begin by talking about the latest in artificial intelligence news, with Meta announcing it will be building its next AI based upon information shared on the social network by its users, and China’s revelations that it will be using DeepSeek to help develop its next generation of fighter aircraft.
  • The pair then run down the week in cyber crime, with ransomware gang DragonForce potentially being behind a string of disruptive attacks on some big UK retailers, including Harrods and Marks & Spencer – and maybe even behind hacking once dominant ransomware giant LockBit. Hollingworth and Croft also discuss Spectrum Medical Imaging’s continuing investigation into its January data breach.
  • The pair wrap things up with a recap of the Australian Cyber Summit and Australian Cyber Awards, held last week. It was a great day and night. The two journalists talk about the importance of giving something back to Australians’ network defenders and quality of content presented during the day.
