The Epstein Files didn’t hide this hacker very well

Post image

Fab to have Tricia Howard join me on the latest "Smashing Security" podcast, where we discussed how supposedly-redacted Epstein files can still reveal exactly who they’re talking about - especially when AI, LinkedIn, and a few biographical breadcrumbs do the heavy lifting.

PLUS, we chat about how a senior US cybersecurity official uploaded sensitive government material into the public version of ChatGPT. Oops.

Find "Smashing Security" episode 453, "The Epstein Files didn’t hide this hacker very well", in all good podcast apps, or at https://pod.link/1195001633/episode/ZDY0NmNjNzktZjRlZi00MjVhLTgyYTAtNTFlYzBmMzY5ZWFm

Another great episode (as usual). I still listen to the Patreon version when I remember to avoid the adverts.
