The real crime is the machines still running Windows XP

the real crime is the ugly tricks and dirty play the casinos do to make you become addicted.
they gotta pay a huge amount in licensees
and also legacy systems
@@RENO_K it cost to stay on the top
I literally love your videos so much. They’re always so informative and you have the best voice for this stuff. ❤️🙌
That's disturbing that the slot machines are not only online but can be hacked because it's all digital.
Im not even mad about this attack
So strange to see a face to your voice! But i like it ^^ Love your videos!
Are those slot machines still using Windows XP just to run their casino software? What a poor move... I thought they were using some sort of Linux distro underneath.
I hope this doesn't cause issues for Defcon in the future.
it’s not a great look and these 2 hotels are owned by the two biggest conglomerates. hoping for the best
Good morning Tech Community.. Wednesday roll call from the 918 🌅💯
Did the hackers get paid.
Caesars did pay, unfortunately: www.cpomagazine.com/cyber-security/caesars-entertainment-discloses-cyber-attack-ransom-payment-made-weeks-before-mgm-heist/
this money is going straight to russians hackers hired by putin 😅
Will you be covering the webp issue?
webp issue? I dont use webp that much from the start, i prefer png or such.. My experience with webp is that its a propitiatory image format that require chrome and if google dont like your file browser kiss goodbye to the possibility to preview it or open it..
I always convert them into png if i ever use a webp image for something
Damn that is a really nice apartment or whatever it is.
Hey Leo :) what happened to the AV tests? it's been a long time since your last test, would really like to see some updated results :)
yeah, I'm currently working on a Kaspersky vs Bitdefender, Malwarebytes, Mcaffee and Norton tests, there will be a lot of that stuff coming out towards the end of the year.
@@pcsecuritychannel thanks for the update Leo :) can’t wait to see them :)
Leo when will you change your CZcams Profike and cover picture i think it could be upgraded :)
Nice video btw
Oh hey leo I was just in vc with you
Scary.
So I see you're no longer using the ghost iso
If we don't allow ransomware to run, it won't do anything. It can be easily implemented on Linux by file X attribute. On the system, no one including SU, can modify file X attributes. The only way to modify X is in safe mode without networking. This will stop ransomware, new or old all together.
ahahhaa :D gl
I love it. Once the hackers get caught they will never be heard from again.
Whaaaaaat? "IT Support vendors" can be victims of a "social engineering attack"? The horror... the horror...
(read: darn good content)
Please do an updated video on antiviruses
Are those one armed bandits really still running XP? 😂

I think this is a good lesson for all organizations to use good antimalware(at least as good as Bitdefender)
What is a good antimalware or antivirus software do you recommend for a user?
We humans are the weakest link. Social engineering is a powerful tool and antimalware cannot save you from being a victim of social engineering.
@@musa1737 malwarebytes
@@musa1737 Bitdefender and Kaspersky but out of the 2 Kaspersky is better
i know this is completely unrelated to the video but i have a question what antivirus would you recommend for me to use prob nog gona see this commet but still gona ask
The hackers was spot on at this one!
Of course the hackers couldn't alter the slot machines payout percentages. That would have been too awesome.
"Jokes aside" lol
Not Really. You got exact point of origin 💀
Can you do 「MEDUSA Ransomware」?
Defqon? Oh, Defcon...
The upload of this video is ironic. 😅
Plz plz plz make a video on STOP/DJVU ransomware plz
First time i ever see your face
Hmm, now who owns the casinos... they strike me as the sort of people who will hold a grudge. Those hackers better hope they are safe in Russia.
This year we saw a huge surge in supplier chain infiltration as a means of getting to the really juicy target. As we literally have hundreds of suppliers we take the sharp step of blocking any breached supplier (5 in the past 12 months) immediately until they clean house. TBH, it's getting out of hand out there.
They're fine. The mob sold all of their stuff starting in the 1990s to corporations. The worst they have to worry about are cops and I'd venture a guess that the cops are no where near the level of those attackers. Unless they hire other attackers to catch them.
When I first went to Las Vegas decades ago the Mob was still in control. It was a much different town.
I really loved your contents, especially av test videos contents in the past.. My main reason to subscribe to this channel was your av test videos.. Sorry for talking frankly, but since a long time, I began not to see these test videos.. In the end, I will unsubscribe this channel ,I think, unfortunately, if I still don't see any test videos for a while.. I see that this youtube channel began to go on its new path , which only contains informative contents, and this does not excite me.. Sorry for my thoughts.. Thanks for your videos, nevertheless.. Sincerely..
There are more AV test videos coming up shortly. It is just that we are working on revamping the entire testing system and we want videos to be more consistent and valuable over time.
@@pcsecuritychannel I'm happy to hear that.. I'll be looking forward to watching your test videos.. Thank you for information.. Sincerely..

I wish they cleared the driving records of every American in The United States of America after the last 25 Years of Unconstitutional Slave Targeting.
next target: Microsoft cloud servers and every ms users account leak. It may happen.. i have no clue but i dont trust a 3rd party computer. The only computer i trust fully is the computers that i work with personally.
KAMA... lol.
Face alert
first
We need your help. A verified CZcamsr by the name @dasherdoggie was hacked by the fake pdf virus and his channel is now terminated. We don't know if CZcams tech support is responding or not.
