In this episode of Out of the Woods: The Threat Hunting Podcast, Scott and Lee discuss four key topics: North Korea’s social engineering attacks on the crypto industry, the rise of the malicious Chrome extension Luma C2 Stealer, a phishing and doxxing campaign by Russian threat actors targeting NGOs, and hacktivist attacks on Russian and Belarusian institutions using ransomware and common tools. They highlight the growing sophistication of these tactics and stress the importance of vigilance and proactive threat hunting to defend against these increasingly complex threats.
