Didn't see this one yet but it's all over the web. 70% of sites are at risk.

Biggest cyber security event ever.

Take precautions, protect your info.

AI systems found flaws in 70% of sites that run PHP.

Definitely turn on 2 factor sign in's where possible, change passwords.

Quest Diagnostics was hacked yesterday.

This might explain the random 2-factor request I got from cerner health yesterday.

You are late to the game with this.

PHP is a programming language that is used mainly for websites. OpenAI found 2 critical vulnerabilities with it. Very little threat intelligence on threat actor exploitation right now. Most big corporations and critical services have this patched already. It was just a headache to do so.

Better yet buy a yubikey and use it on sites that allow it.

Does this mean they take over my TD account and make fake posts?

I have a strong reputation here to protect.
