Cybersecurity involves various processes, and it takes the joint work of different intel specialists to thwart the plans of threat actors within the dark web. However, things become even more complex when dealing with hackers from isolated countries such as China. 

Therefore, it is critical for anyone interested in understanding how to approach Chinese threat actors or their working methods to learn more about the overall Chinese system, including the government and its policies. 

In this episode of Dr. Dark Web, our host Chris Roberts welcomes Naomi Yusupov. She is the Chinese Intelligence Analyst at Cybersixgill and, as Chris describes her, a wizard in her field.

The two discuss the difference between the Chinese digital space and the majority of the world, and demystify how the Great Firewall of China functions. They also touch upon the differences separating Chinese threat actors and other hackers and the importance of slang in their operations, whether on the clear or dark web.
