What happened
The Florida Department of Motor Vehicles confirmed a data breach attributed to ShinyHunters, reportedly originating from credentials stolen from a police officer’s personal device. The same source also reports AI-assisted invoice scams, Russia-linked espionage using Claude, Conti ransomware prosecution, and substantial cyber-scam losses, but the primary breach report lacks technical details or confirmed exploitation scope.
