Russia's Killnet suspected in DDoS attack on major US airports. Starlink service interruptions reported. Bundesbahn communications network sabotaged in northern Germany. Germany's cybersecurity chief faces scrutiny over alleged ties to Russia. Ben Yelin on the FCC's crackdown on robocalls. Ann Johnson from Afternoon Cyber Tea talking with Sounil Yu from JupiterOne about the importance and evolution of cyber resilience.
