Adrian SanabriaHOST
I'm reading one from Joe Tidy right now.
Adrian SanabriaHOST
That's about some of the teenage groups, European located teenage groups like Scattered Spider.
Adrian SanabriaHOST
It's a really interesting read.
Tyler ShieldsHOST
Yeah, 45 minutes, I didn't read it.
Renzon CruzGUEST
Or something, an APT group like DPRK, APT41...
Renzon CruzGUEST
And also the latest one that we published was the Scattered Spider.
Renzon CruzGUEST
So those APT groups that are being active in the cybersecurity realm, we try to emulate them and then try to understand what's their core TTPs and then create some questions out of it.
Renzon CruzGUEST
And I guess it's fun to do.

Rebecca TaylorHOST
And it's an angle I know I find really interesting.
Rebecca TaylorHOST
When you're able to track a persona and then you end up seeing who they are, but often particularly with certain groups like Scattered Spider and some of the groups that I've seen across Telegram platforms, why are they there? What's attracted them? Even recently, we just saw two young people convicted and given a jail sentence for online crimes.
Rebecca TaylorHOST
Again, they were brought in as very young men and they've learned that behavior.
Rebecca TaylorHOST
They've gained something from that environment where you talk about validation and acceptance and finding like-minded people where they feel heard and seen you can appreciate i'm not saying it's right none of us are saying it's right but you can appreciate how that plays its part in why particularly i think more and more young people are being attracted into those spaces
David BrowieHOST
H&M is investigating claims by the cybercriminal group ShinyHunters that it targeted the Swedish fashion retailer in a potential cybersecurity incident involving a limited amount of company data.
David BrowieHOST
The Standard reports that the group has previously claimed responsibility for major cyberattacks alongside groups including Scattered Spider and Lapsus$.
David BrowieHOST
H&M, which operates approximately four thousand stores across more than eighty markets, has not confirmed a breach and says its investigation is ongoing.
David BrowieHOST
And finally, Oleg Korneev, a forty-two-year-old dual Ukrainian-Russian citizen, has pleaded guilty to operating Your Mule Cash Out, or YMCAO, an international money laundering network that recruited more than fifteen thousand Americans to help cybercriminals move stolen funds overseas.
Ron EddingsHOST
It's built to help people fast, and that's exactly what attackers count on.
Ron EddingsHOST
Scatter Spider, the crew tied to the MGM hack, they get in almost always the same way.
Ron EddingsHOST
They call the help desk and they pretend to be an employee and they ask for a password reset.
Ron EddingsHOST
So again, before resetting someone's password, it may be a good idea to say, okay, before I do that, I'm going to hang up and call you back.
Chad GoodhueGUEST
So when MGM Grand and Caesars Palace got hit, it was through social engineering, and they weren't people from another country.
Chad GoodhueGUEST
It was, um, a group of, uh, high schoolers and college students called Scattered Spider, and they're very good at what they do.
Chad GoodhueGUEST
Um, and they absolutely, if the payday is worth it, they will crawl whatever they can, though when you start talking about a smaller entity, um, it's not as difficult.
Chad GoodhueGUEST
There are less people, there's less intricacies, and there's less security to worry about.
Ronnie TokazowskiHOST
When there's the motivation to actually track a cyber actor, it can be done.
Ronnie TokazowskiHOST
Let's take Scattered Spider, who went and hacked the FBI.
Ronnie TokazowskiHOST
How quickly was it before you actually had somebody identified and arrested? It was two weeks.
Ronnie TokazowskiHOST
What led up to that? What was the information behind the scenes that led up to that? For the cybersecurity side, we knew those folks a long time.
