Asheer Malhotra is back to talk to Jon Munshaw about spyware and mercenary groups. Asheer recently helped publish Talos research on Mercenary Groups and why they're so dangerous in particular. We briefly touched on this topic in a past episode on the Predator/Alien spyware tag team, but this time we're getting into the broader field of what Mercenary groups are, exactly, and what makes them so dangerous. Asheer talks about recent steps governments have taken to curb the sale of spyware and why the "average" user should care about this topic, even though they're unlikely to ever be a target.
