I rented a car, and within hours, my driver's license was for sale
Dark-web site Nexus is selling about 153 million driver's license scans, apparently harvested near real time from IDScan.net's service used by Hertz and others.
KrebsOnSecurity reported that the dark-web marketplace Nexus offered roughly 153 million driver's license scans for sale, including the author's license shortly after it was scanned at a car rental. New scans appeared within hours to a day of presentation, implying near real-time access to data flowing through IDScan.net's ID scanning service, which lists Hertz and 11 other companies as customers and captures infrared and ultraviolet spectra. License listings grew by about 400,000 over 24 hours, indicating the leak was ongoing. Nexus went dark hours after the report, and the FBI is investigating.

Risky Bulletin: Russia tells data centers to deploy drone defenses
Russia ordered data center operators to deploy drone strike defenses under a Putin decree allowing temporary state takeover of unprotected critical infrastructure.
The Russian government instructed data center operators to deploy protections against drone strikes under a presidential decree signed by Putin that allows temporary state administration of critical infrastructure operators failing to defend against Ukrainian hacks and drone strikes. Although data centers are not formally critical infrastructure in Russia, the decree applies to them because other sectors depend heavily on cloud services; Russia has more than 180 data centers, over 80% in the European region within range of Ukrainian strikes. The digest also reports a Dropbox breach affecting nearly 5,000 accounts via the Lenovo ID integration, spyware attacks on at least 14 Serbians using NoviSpy or Pegasus, and a password recovery attack targeting hundreds of thousands of X accounts tied to the new X Money service. Other items include a 14-hour compromise of Coder's Cloudflare infrastructure delivering malicious Terraform modules, donor data breaches at Davayte and You Are Not Alone via the Stripe/WooCommerce integration, a $2.5M Aquifer crypto heist, and a TVING breach exposing data of almost 40 million accounts.
