In this episode of Insights into Technology, host Joseph Whalen delves into the challenges facing the tech industry today. We kick things off with a look at how cybercriminals are exploiting Microsoft's trusted signing service to disguise malware as legitimate software, highlighting the cracks in current security measures. Learn why enterprises need to recalibrate their detection algorithms to spot potentially dangerous applications.

Next, we explore the significant implications of 23andMe's bankruptcy. With millions of customers' genetic data at risk, discover what this means for privacy and why consumers should act now to safeguard their information. We discuss the broader issue of genetic data commodification in the corporate world.

Finally, the episode covers the FCC's probe into Chinese tech companies allegedly bypassing US bans, and how this impacts national security. We end with insights into the National Vulnerabilities Database backlog and what enterprises must do to keep up with the ever-evolving cyber threat landscape, illustrating the urgent need for adaptive and proactive security measures.
