About this listen

 Welcome to the Identity Theft Resource Center's (ITRC’s) Weekly Breach Breakdown for June 13, 2025. I'm Alex Achten, Senior Director of Communications & Media Relations of the ITRC. Thanks to Sentilink for supporting the ITRC and this podcast. Each week, we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. Today, we will examine a data event that has dominated the headlines for the last two weeks, its implications for consumers and why it highlights the importance of passkey adoption. You’ve probably heard the phrase “the future is now.” There is a debate over the origin of this term. Some say it was from the back cover of Alvin Toffler’s 1970 book “Future Shock.” Some think its origins may be older, stretching back to a speech given by Robert F. Kennedy in 1966 or a similar phrase from Sir Austen Chamberlain in 1936. Regardless of who coined the phrase, it is relevant to our conversation today, as it pertains to findings recently discovered by cybersecurity researcher Jeremiah Fowler.
