Summary of Recent Developments (SORD): Q4 Update 2 - FEMA/Helene Response, Palestinian Week of Rage in U.S., AT&T/Verizon Conversations Breached by China, Port Strike Suspended
Description
Today we’re going to be looking incidents related to Hurricane Helene (FEMA food seizures, rotor washes by helicopters); also the Bank of America cyber issue that left citizens with $0.00 balances displayed, Chinese hackers accessing AT&T/Verizon phone conversations; 24 states have water utilities hacked; and the “week of rage” by Hamas and pro-Palestinians.
In this episode, we cover significant cybersecurity threats, national security alerts, and civil unrest across the U.S. We'll discuss the large-scale outage at Bank of America and the FBI's warning of potential violence following the one-year anniversary of the Hamas attacks on Israel. There was also a major incident in Texas where church security thwarted an active shooter attempt and a lot the media didn't tell you.
Our briefing includes updates on widespread protests, including pro-Palestinian demonstrations and climate activism, along with ongoing street takeovers in Philadelphia. We also explore multiple cybersecurity breaches, including Chinese and Russian hacking groups targeting U.S. infrastructure, military contractors, and government officials.
Lastly, we provide updates on the temporarily suspended dockworkers’ strike and rumored reports of FEMA's negative involvement in Hurricane Helene relief efforts. Join us for an in-depth briefing on these critical developments and more.
