This week on Lock and Code, we discuss the top security headlines generated right here on Labs and around the Internet. In addition, we talk to Chris Boyd, lead malware intelligence analyst for Malwarebytes, about Bluetooth and beacon technology.
Last month, cybersecurity experts warned the public about the data collection embedded in the Donald Trump 2020 re-election campaign’s mobile app. Once downloaded, the app requests broad access to user information, including device contacts, rough location, device storage, ID, call information, Bluetooth pairing, and more.
Tune in to hear about the progression of Bluetooth technology, how the tech is used in online advertising today, and more, on the latest episode of Lock and Code, with host David Ruiz.
You can also find us on the Apple iTunes store, Google Play Music, and Spotify, plus whatever preferred podcast platform you use.
Stay safe, everyone!
