Unpack all the details about Russia state-sponsored cyber operations, including the most active threat groups, their TTPs, and what steps organizations can take to defend themselves in this multi-part podcast series by hosts Tova Dvorin and Adrian Culley.
How the FSB, GRU, and SVR divide cyber operations, the real tactics used by Russian APT groups — spear phishing, supply-chain attacks, and living-off-the-land techniques — and practical defensive strategies to harden your environment.
The “proxy bridge” connecting Western cybercriminals to the FSB through the BlackCat/ALPHV ransomware platform, and how the FSB co-option model actually works.
What many treat as a single “Russian threat” is actually a complex ecosystem of competing intelligence agencies. We unpack the distinct goals, tactics, and operational philosophies of each.
The Western cybercrime ecosystem increasingly intertwined with Russian intelligence operations, and how “The Comm” has produced high-profile groups like Scattered Spider, Lapsus$, and ShinyHunters.
A bonus episode on DynoWiper malware targeting Polish energy infrastructure, linked to Russian actors including the FSB’s Static Tundra group and the GRU’s Sandworm team.
How groups like Scattered Spider, while not on the Kremlin’s payroll, funnel data into Russian-monitored infrastructure — and why you must simulate hybrid threats, not just isolated attackers.
A £2B hit and a 27% production drop: how the Jaguar Land Rover supply chain attack unfolded, why third-party access becomes first-party risk, and what resilience really looks like when the supply chain breaks.
Unpacking the decentralized cybercrime network reshaping social engineering — how Scattered Spider, Lapsus$, and affiliates evolved into highly organized ransomware operations that feed Russian intelligence.
Inside Scattered Spider’s tactics targeting countries like Australia for their anti-ransom policies, and why traditional security measures aren’t enough to counter their psychological operations.
Inside Scattered Spider, a decentralized threat group targeting major corporations like MGM and Marks & Spencer through social engineering, vishing, and impersonation — and why identity management and phishing-resistant authentication are more critical than ever.
A look at Dragonfly, the state-sponsored cyber espionage group linked to the Russian FSB, and how reconnaissance and pre-positioning translate into sabotage potential.
