UK Retail Under Siege

Several high-profile UK retailers have suffered serious cyberattacks that have disrupted operations for weeks and, in some cases, exposed sensitive customer data. The social engineering techniques used in the attack align with the notorious Scattered Spider group, but a new ransomware group named Dragonforce has claimed responsibility. Matt and David delve into the details of these attacks, what we know about these cybercriminal groups, and whether they are affiliated. They also cover the Coinbase breach — a calculated, high-stakes extortion scheme where hackers bribed overseas contractors to steal sensitive user data and demand a $20 million ransom. Watch now!
