Olympic cyberwars: Russia targets Milano Cortina with 120+ DDoS attacks

The Winter Olympics got a cyberattack before the first medal was awarded.

Scale of response: Italy launched its first-ever round-the-clock cybersecurity command center in Rome, monitoring all venues and coordinating defenses — the most extensive cyber operation ever mounted for a sporting event
Hotel targeting: NoName057(16) specifically went after hospitality infrastructure where athletes are staying — a reminder that supply chain targets extend far beyond IT systems
No significant disruption: Italy's ACN (National Cybersecurity Agency) successfully thwarted the attacks. Preparation beats panic
Pattern recognition: This group has previously hit France (La Poste, Dec 2025), Poland, Czechia, and Lithuania — any European country supporting Ukraine is a target

Odido breach: 6.2 million Dutch customers exposed by a phone call

The Netherlands' largest mobile operator just lost 6.2 million customer records — and the attackers didn't exploit a single vulnerability.

Names, home addresses, email addresses, phone numbers
Dates of birth and bank account numbers
ID document details (though not scans of the documents themselves)

BeyondTrust scores a near-perfect 9.9 — on the CVSS vulnerability scale

When your remote access tool scores 9.9 out of 10 on the vulnerability scale, "critical" doesn't quite capture it.

CVSS 9.9 (v4.0) / 9.8 (v3.1) — about as bad as vulnerabilities get
Unauthenticated WebSocket endpoint — attackers don't need credentials to exploit it
Remote code execution via unsafe Bash arithmetic evaluation in the thin-scc-wrapper script

Belgium's NIS2 milestone: 2,410 organizations registered — and counting

Belgium just pulled off the largest cybersecurity compliance operation in its history.

Registration is done — self-assessment is next. The April 18 deadline for CyFun self-assessment submission is now 8 weeks away. Registered doesn't mean compliant
Energy, transport, healthcare, digital infrastructure, government, and manufacturing — these sectors make up the 2,410 critical registrations
The CCB's CyFun framework is the mandatory assessment tool. Organizations must submit a CyFun self-assessment or equivalent (ISO 27001) to the CCB
MSP opportunity: Thousands of organizations now need help preparing their self-assessment in 8 weeks. That's a lot of compliance work that needs doing
