Show Notes

The stereotypical "hacker" who looks to do good in the world probably involves a Guy Fawkes mask and black hoodie. But hacktivism has become much more than that, especially since Russia invaded Ukraine. On the heels of a newly released overview on hacktivism, Lexi DiScola from the Talos Threat Intelligence and Interdiction team joins Talos Takes this week to discuss these actors. While not just anyone is likely a target for hacktivists, Talos has seen groups become more brazen and start looking to make money off their operations.
