It Would Be Lovely To Head Into The Weekend Without A New Breach For A Change. AT&T have disclosed a SnowFlake related breach which effects around 109 million customers, essentially everyone with an AT&T phone account. The breach contains data that hackers managed to collect from May 1 to October 31, 2022 and again on January 2, 2023. The stolen data includes the phone numbers of not only AT&T customers but also external carriers, likely ones which interacted with one of the breached accounts. The data also includes the number of calls and texts made as well as an daily aggregate of call duration and in some cases cell site IDs the phone connected to.

Several new outlets including NPR and AARP Bulletin, have reported that there may be an alternative to a colonoscopy in the prevention of colorectal cancer. Forty percent of adults between the ages of 45 and 75 who should be screened for the disease do not do so–many because they simply do not want to go through the process of a colonoscopy. I have blogged about this in the past; it is essential to get screened to catch the disease early. I have even blogged about my own experience with the regular testing.
