In Other News: PQC Adoption, New Android Spyware, FEMA Data Breach

In Other News this week highlights post-quantum cryptography uptake, with PQC support for SSH servers rising to 8.5% of all SSH servers and 26% of OpenSSH servers, while TLS 1.3 adoption for PQC remains at 19%, according to an analysis by Forescout. The round‑up also notes two new spyware families targeting Android users in the United Arab Emirates, named ProSpy and ToSpy, which masquerade as legitimate apps and exfiltrate data after manual installation.

A separate report, according to Nextgov, describes a CitrixBleed 2 exploitation that allegedly led to FEMA and CBP employee data being stolen, with talk of FEMA technology staff being fired over the incident. The piece also mentions other stories, including a BBC journalist being offered money by cybercriminals to hack into BBC network activity. Overall, the briefing underscores continuing shifts in cryptography adoption, mobile threat activity in the UAE, and government‑side data security incidents.
