Podcast Overview
<p>Welcome to <b>Zero Day Logs</b>, the podcast that dissects the most consequential cybersecurity breaches of our time.

A critical security patch sat unapplied on a Pearson education platform for six months. By the time it was found, data on roughly 11.5 million student records across some 13,000 schools and universities had been taken — and Pearson described the breach to investors as a "hypothetical" risk. The SEC disagreed. This is the story of the distance between knowing and acting: a documented flaw, an available fix, and the gap in between.

How Uber Hid a Breach of 57 Million People
On November 14, 2016, two hackers told Uber they had the personal records of 57 million users and drivers. What Uber did next wasn't a breach response — it was a cover-up: a $100,000 payment disguised as a bug-bounty reward, false NDAs, and a year of silence while a binding FTC order required disclosure. The breach itself was fixable. The concealment became the first criminal conviction of a chief security officer. (0:00) The hackers make contact (0:40) The break-in: reused passwords to 57M ...

Yahoo: 3 Billion Accounts, Four Years Hidden
Three billion user accounts. Two separate breaches. Four FSB-directed operatives. And nearly two years of silence between what Yahoo's security team knew and what the public was told. This episode traces the full operation from the spear phishing campaign that opened the door, through the forged authentication cookies that bypassed every login screen, to the SEC enforcement action that established a new category of regulatory risk: the failure to disclose a known breach. Chapters: 0:00 — 3 ...
