## TeamViewer's Corporate Network Breached in Alleged APT Hack

## Chinese Cyberspies Employ Ransomware in Attacks for Diversion

## Cloudflare: We Never Authorized [Polyfill.io](https://Polyfill.io) to Use Our Name

Cloudflare has issued a statement clarifying that it never authorized [Polyfill.io](https://Polyfill.io) to use its name.
