About this episode
Alberto Hill discusses the Be Prime breach and the corporate response to it.
Welcome back to Cybermidnight Club . In this episode, host Alberto Daniel Hill unpacks the shocking April 2026 breach of Be Prime, a Mexican cybersecurity firm based in Monterrey.What happens when a company that sells security services gets hacked? In Be Prime's case, 53 GB of highly sensitive data was leaked to the public—including client surveillance camera feeds and Cisco Meraki admin panels. The ultimate irony? This catastrophic breach occurred simply because the firm's own admin accounts lacked basic two-factor authentication (2FA).But the real story isn't just the technical failure; it's the institutional cover-up. Instead of practicing transparency and notifying their clients, Be Prime responded with hostile legal threats, attempting to silence journalists and infosec researchers by accusing them of defamation.Listen as Alberto details his deployment of "Radical Transparency" and asymmetric digital warfare to combat this corporate bullying. Discover the exact tactics used to force Be Prime into compliance, including publishing public open letters demanding 48-hour client notification, rallying international organizations like the EFF and Amnesty International…
