Russia is the hot topic right now, and with good reason. On this podcast, we'll talk a little bit about what we've learned, talk about the scams, recommend books and more. Here are the complete show notes for this week's podcast.

Welcome to podcast 84 of the security box. This time, let's discuss Russia's involvement in pure problems. Now, they have decided to go to war, and its against Ukraine. They've been known to do DDOS attacks, ransomware attacks, spreading information that is not true or partially true or even completely false, denying many different things through the years ike the 2016 and 2020 presidential campaigns, and even more may be in the pipeline.

Below, please find links to some of the recent blog posts that I've done since the war started. In no way am I linking to everything, but you need to understand what's going on so you can make the most informed decision on your needs based on what is actually happening.

I put the link to the video last, because while informative, we know that things are changing rapidly. I put McDonalds first because it was the last we posted and most viewed on linkedin. It got a retweet in France according to a comment.

What should you read? There are several books you can definitely read.

All of these books are written by Mark Russinovich , someone who works at Microsoft. To learn more about Mark, the various books he's written including those I've linked in these notes, please visit zero day the book which is his web site. All books linked from his site I've read, zero day may be more of what we're dealing with possibly right now. Some books may be available through NLS's bard and Amazon as well as Apple Books.
