This episode delivers a critical wake-up call to developers about the urgent need to secure their workstations against modern worms targeting developer environments. We explore why attackers are zeroing in on developer machines, dive deep into the ShaiHulud and PhantomRaven worms that have shaken the developer community, and provide concrete steps to protect your credentials. Plus, we cover the day’s tech news including a VMware zero-day actively exploited by Chinese hackers, how timing wheels solve massive scaling problems, and a smart vacuum that got bricked for blocking data collection.
