Don't get cozy with Cozy Bear. Code-signing issues stem from muddled documentation. Devices ship with inadvertent backdoor. Matryosha attack. Operation WireWire versus BEC scammers.

In today's podcast we hear that the US Treasury Department has announced sanctions against Russian entities it says were too cyber-cozy with the FSB. Code-signing issue looks like what we have here is a failure to communicate. Android devices are being shipped with ADB enabled, and cryptojackers enter by the backdoor. A layered criminal attack posing as emails from Samsung spearphishes Russian victims. Operation WireWire reels in seventy-four business email compromise suspects. Ben Yelin from UMD CHHS on the framing of the encryption debate. Guest is Steve Schult from LogMeIn and LastPass on best practices password security. Learn more about your ad choices.
