Summary

This week, Australia passed a modified encryption bill that gives law enforcement the ability to compel tech firms to circumvent encryption, with implications for other nations. In the US, officials warned companies and government officials of potential backlash against US-based companies, while bipartisan legislation was introduced to promote cybersecurity education. Meanwhile, Marriott planned to reimburse some guests affected by the recent breach, Quora suffered a massive cyber attack exposing 100 million users' data, and researchers discovered new malware threats such as DanaBot and GootKit, which may be cooperating with another group. The TSA released a cybersecurity roadmap aimed at prioritizing measures within the agency and across transportation systems.
