We had the chance to pick the brains of John Hultquist
(@JohnHultquist), Director of Threat Intelligence, and Ben Read
(@bread08), Senior Manager of Cyber-espionage Analysis. John and Ben
provide a lot of media color and discuss geopolitical ramifications of
complex technical reports by translating the news into lay terms. In
this segment, we start with the recently announced indictments
charging Russian GRU officers with international hacking and related
influence and disinformation operations, then bounce to APT28, and the
conversation keeps going from there.
