## Resource

Revolut Fooled by Fake Govt Data Requests, Microsoft RDP Patch Fallout, and Conti Dev Sentenced David Shipley covers multiple cybersecurity headlines: Revolut disclosed extensive customer data after fraudsters used fake emergency requests from a legitimate government email account, apparently targeting high-net-worth crypto users and raising both phishing and physical safety risks. Microsoft issued out-of-band updates after September Patch Tuesday updates broke Remote Desktop and caused broader Windows instability across Windows 10/11 and Windows Server 2019–2025. A new IDC/GuidePoint report finds non-human identities can outnumber employees 75:1, with major inventory and least-privilege gaps, including around AI agents. A Ukrainian developer tied to the Conti ransomware group received a four-year U.S. prison sentence. Finally, a U.S. Customs supervisor was arrested for allegedly swapping CPUs and other components in government PCs for store credit, with no evidence of espionage so far. 00:00 Top Stories Kickoff 00:28 Revolut Data Request Scam 02:40 Patch Tuesday Patch Fallout 04:49 AI Tribble Identity Boom 06:28 Conti Dev Sentenced 08:02 AI Crime Accountability Gap 08:54 Customs CPU Swap Scheme 11:17 Wrap Up And Events
