In this episode, Si and Desi talk to Matt Suiche from Magnet Forensics about the rise of e-crime and info stealers.

They look at the latest shifts in how cybercriminals are operating, with a lot of ransomware gangs now moving towards hacking, stealing, extortion and leaking documents, rather than blindly encrypting files.  

They also examine the importance of memory forensics in trying to detect active threats within a network, and how ChatGPT – a chatbot launched by OpenAI in November last year – could be leveraged to create functioning malware.
