Show Notes

We're joined by threat intelligence experts Joe Honey and Vlad to delve into dark web hacking forums.

The conversation covers how dark web forums differ from regular internet forums, the topics that users are discussing, and how forums manage to have such longevity in comparison to criminal marketplaces.
