This week, I explore Hafnium with Xavier and David Rushmer, Director of Threat Research at Blackpoint. We learn a little bit more about this state-sponsored threat identified by Microsoft including some of their tradecraft, tactics, and how they differ from other ransomware groups. David gives us his perspective from having a lot of experience in the threat research and threat intelligence space and also shares his advice for budding security professionals on using your resources and staying curious.
