Cyber Sitzkrieg. Waiting for the Bears to show up (and ready to set the Dogs on them). Facebook private messages for sale.
In today's podcast, we hear that people are asking if that lull in Chinese cyber operations was just a strategic pause. Huawei's on a charm offensive. People are seeing plenty of Russian trolling, but election hacking proper continues to be quiet. Another strategic pause? US Cyber Command is said to be ready to respond to any election cyberattacks swiftly and in kind. And if you want to hear what people think about 80s techno-pop, a dark web souk will sell you the relevant Facebook messages for just one thin dime apiece. Malek Ben Salem from Accenture Labs on blockchain use in election security. Guest is Shannon Morse, host and producer at Hak5.org.
