Hi John, Japanese electronics giant NEC claims to have achieved Japan’s longest terrestrial wireless optical communication, or free-space optical (FSO) communication, over a distance of more than 10 km in a Tokyo trial. South African telco MTN Group has revealed that it recently suffered a security breach that affected the personal datas of customers but maintains that its critical infrastructure was not compromised. AI-powered identity security and cyber resilience provider Semperis has announced the launch of Ready1 in Australia and New Zealand, claiming a a first-of-its-kind enterprise resilience platform designed to bring structure, speed, and coordination to cyber crisis management. Every week, Australian organisations experience cybersecurity breaches that are caused by either their own failure or that of a third-party. What’s more, the resulting damage isn’t limited to the internal havoc caused by intruders, it’s reputational – and that’s something that news outlets around the world love to amplify. A$945 million – that is how much money Australian consumers reported losing to investment scams in 2024. Often victims are only trying to create financial security and build a failsafe for the future. Instead, they are manipulated, defrauded, and left more vulnerable than before by the criminals. And as always there's plenty more today, so for all the news please visit www.itwire.com. Josh Martinez, newsletter editor, iTWire
