Educational, News, Talk Show
Storing your cryptocurrency offline might not protect your wealth as well as you think.
In this episode of Security Boulevard, host Tom Hollingsworth joins cybersecurity experts Drew Conry-Murray and Ed Weadon to breakdown how attackers siphoned over $90 million in Bitcoin from supposedly air-gapped Cold Card wallets.
The panel discusses how a simple coding flaw in random number generation exposed thousands of user keys, proving that off-grid storage is not immune to modern threats. They also analyze recent nation-state attacks against municipal water facilities in Minnesota and Michigan.
They debate whether global leaders need to establish a modern Geneva Convention to protect critical public infrastructure from cyber warfare.
Finally, the group explores how AI vulnerability scanners are forcing organizations to rethink patch management and change control boards.
