Ransom
AT&T Wireless: In April 2024, hackers affiliated with ShinyHunters hacked AT&T Wireless and stole data on over 110 million customers. In May, AT&T paid a $370,000 ransom to one of the group's members to delete the data
innovation is dead
On Aug 7, there was an event celebrating 100 years of innovation at AT&T in Middletown highlighting past AT&T inventions. It was organized by Raj Savoor, VP of AT&T Labs. Retirees were invited because they were the last ones to see any innovation.
Highlight: keynote by Ed Amoroso, past CSO at AT&T who puts Rich Baich to shame. Talked about the future of cyber security (he started his own company after leaving) and gave the top 10 things in Letterman style that AT&T should be doing in the future. Am pretty sure not too many things AT&T is actually doing were on his list.
Lowlight: Some ex VP level retiree stood up during Q&A and said something like "I hear morale at AT&T is now in the toilet, what are you doing to engage employees such that the innovations we have heard about today will continue?" Andy Markus who was on the panel said "we are using AI to drive down costs and save the company money."

L3Harris Hacked by Ransomware Group World Leaks
Seems this hack is being kept quite with all the uproar about Accenture suing L3Harris for $81 million and the Accenture I.T. contract ending with L3Harris on 12/15/2025. Karma? 450+ employees "sold" to Accenture without any severance options and then a year later the contract is terminated. This from a company that requires the employees to take yearly ethics classes.
