Episode 135: Public tipping point on ransomware
Manage episode 295889440 series 1745537
For years, cybercriminals have operated in a sweet spot. They have targeted businesses with the resources to pay the ransom but not the kind that has hurt the public at large. Over the past few months that seems to be changing. The Colonial pipeline attack sent gas prices skyrocketing and had people filling plastic bags with gasoline. The hack of JBS Meat caused food prices to increase. It begs the question: are hackers expanding their scope of the attack and will it finally put cybersecurity front and center for the general public?
