Because this week, one of his frozen wallets suddenly woke up and moved $35 million - and someone had to identify themselves to do it.Meanwhile, Ajax Football Club scores a spectacular cyber own-goal, as a data breach that the club claimed affected "a few hundred" fans turns out to may have exposed the personal details of 300,000 supporters - along with the ability to steal match tickets and quietly remove people from the stadium ban list.All this and much more in episode 461 of the "Smashing Security" podcast with cybersecurity expert and keynote speaker Graham Cluley, joined this week by special guest journalist Danny Palmer.EPISODE LINKS:Iran-linked hackers breach FBI director's personal email, publish photos and documents - Reuters.Windows PCs crash three times as often as Macs, report says - TechSpot.Wife used CCTV to steal $176M of husband’s crypto, UK court told - Coin Telegraph.Gardaí open €30m bitcoin virtual wallet, first of 12 accessed since seizure in 2019 - Irish Times.Irish Drug Dealer’s Lost BTC Stack Worth $400m Has Woken Up - Arkham.Ajax FC data breach exposes 300,000 fans, hacker steals tickets an stadium ban details - Cybernews.Small Prophets - BBC iPlayer.RPG Taverns - Dungeons and Dragons tavern in London.Smashing Security merchandise (t-shirts, mugs, stickers and stuff)SPONSORS:Action1 - Keep your systems safe (and your sanity intact) with the patch management platform that just works.
