In this episode of Security Squawk, we dissect a wave of high-impact cyber events: a Texas city forced offline by a cyberattack; a 9% jump in ransomware against U.S. infrastructure; the FBI's record-breaking $16.6 B loss in 2024; North Korean spies posing as U.S. firms to infect crypto developers; global cyberwarfare readiness; and headline-grabbing data leaks—from Legends International to Blue Shield's PHI slip.

In our Follow-Up, we revisit DaVita's dialysis response, Sensata's production halt, and Frederick Health's 1 M patient-record breach. Tune in now!
