In May, I wrote about Andrew Olsson, a YouTuber who woke up locked out of Claude with no warning and no explanation. Everything he'd built
Introduction Are cybersecurity frameworks genuinely useful, and something you should consider? Are they a box-ticking exercise, or do they actually make your business genuinely harder

In the fight against ransomware, every extra security mechanism aimed at preserving and shielding backups from attack can be helpful in ensuring you have a viable recovery point.
We tested the latest NAS offering from Ubiquiti, and scored the Ubiquiti NAS a 5.5/10 for cyber-resilience. While this score may seem low, in reality we believe this device offers good “bang for buck” and is far superior to the common practice of backing up to a Windows share (which scores 1/10).
Most ransomware attacks don’t begin with encryption. They begin with a hunt. Before any files are scrambled, the attacker, a person already inside your network, goes looking for your backups and destroys the ones they can reach, because a backup you can restore from is a ransom you don’t have to pay.
Yet there’s a feature in millions of NAS devices that costs precisely nothing to switch on. And it could save you from a six-figure ransom.
Most people think AI safety is about rogue machines. But a more immediate risk is losing access to your AI account and the files stored inside it. After a YouTuber was locked out of Claude without warning, BackupAssist founder Linus Chang explores a different kind of AI safety problem: dependence on AI platforms that can disappear overnight.
