PODCAST: AI to solve housing troubles, ATO denies security issues, and our favourite data breach tool

In this episode of the Cyber Uncut podcast, David Hollingworth and Daniel Croft have a chat about everything, from the NSW government’s new drive to use AI to solve the housing crisis to deepfake takedowns, who may or may not be behind the hacking campaign targeting big-name UK retailers (still!), security issues at the Australian Taxation Office, and the relaunch of HaveIBeenPwned.

Hollingworth and Croft start off with positive AI-related news, starting with the Trump administration’s decision to enact new laws regarding deepfake and revenge porn, before swivelling to the NSW state government’s plan to use AI to help address a housing construction backlog and grow the workforce.
Then it’s straight into cyber crime, with more twists and turns from the highly disruptive hacking campaign targeting UK retailers. The pair discuss why one chain is leaking money like a sieve as it tries to rebuild, and why another is getting back on its feet. It’s a lesson everyone can learn from. Hollingworth and Croft wrap up this section of the podcast with a discussion of the ATO’s issues with identity theft following revelations that hackers had compromised some individual accounts and stolen funds.
The pair wrap things up with news of one of their favourite research tools – HaveIBeenPwned – launching a V2 of its website, and how useful it is for average consumers and researchers alike.
