As we pass the midpoint of 2017, we’ve had more than a few high-profile malware attacks. Two of the biggest have been WannaCry, the ransomware attack that went worldwide in May, and NotPetya, the destructive campaign that targeted Ukraine in June, but rapidly became a global menace, creating widespread fear and confusion, not to mention business disruptions. Observers are still settling on a final name for NotPetya, by the way. It’s being called Petya, Nyetya, and GoldenEye, but for this show we’re going to go with NotPetya.
In this episode, we’re joined again by Allan Liska, Senior Solutions Architect at Recorded Future, and author of “Ransomware – Defending Against Digital Extortion.” He’ll share his insights on both attacks, and walk us through how his team grappled with the challenge of understanding and communicating the threat to industry. We’ll also talk about what these two attacks mean for the future — do they represent harbingers of the “big one” we all fear? Time to panic? Tune in and find out.
