The past week has been a lot for people in the security industry. Last Friday in the US, people were just about to clock off for what would hopefully be a relaxing Fourth of July long weekend. Only for cybercriminals to have other plans.

This episode contains the audio from a recent live stream, where Hazel sat down with Cisco Talos’ US Outreach Team lead Nick Biasini. We talked about the unfolding events surrounding the REvil ransomware campaign and Kaseya VSA supply chain attack.

Nick broke down the complicated scenario, and talked about how the two attacks worked together. We also spoke about the impact for organizations around the world, as well as what we’re seeing with ransomware on a general level at the moment. 

The audio includes questions that we received during the live stream from our audience, and Nick's answers.

To stay up to date on this attack, please take a look at the Talos response post which is being continually updated.
