    The Weekly Breach Breakdown: Gone Quishing – Criminals Use QR Code Phishing in New Attacks – S6E27
    Sep 4 2025
    Welcome to the Identity Theft Resource Center's (ITRC) Weekly Breach Breakdown for September 5, 2025. I'm Tatiana Cuadras, Communications Assistant for the ITRC. Thanks to Sentilink for supporting the ITRC and this podcast. Each week, we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. Today, we are going to look at how identity criminals are using QR code phishing in new attacks. Many of you probably have heard the phrase “Gone Fishing” before. For those who have not, “Gone Fishing” is another way someone might say one is absent, left or no longer present. It can also be an excuse for not being around. The hackers are not “Gone Fishing”; they are “Gone Quishing”. See what I did there? On a more serious note, that is the title of this week’s podcast because they are weaponizing QR codes in new “quishing” attacks.

    The Weekly Breach Breakdown Podcast: Mapping Out The Problem – Instagram Map Concerns - S6E26
    Aug 21 2025
    Welcome to the Identity Theft Resource Center’s (ITRC) Weekly Breach Breakdown for August 22, 2025. I’m Timothy Walden. Thanks to SentiLink for their support of the ITRC and this podcast. Each week, we break down the latest data security incidents making headlines. Today, we’re focusing on a recent incident involving Instagram that exposed sensitive information for millions of users through a little-known feature called Instagram Map. Earlier this month, Instagram rolled out a new feature called Instagram Map. The idea sounds harmless enough: a way to see your friends’ real-time locations, similar to Snapchat’s Snap Map or Apple’s Find My. However, here’s the issue: Instagram Map prompts you to share your precise location every time you open the app, even if you’re not posting.
