Hello folks, welcome to another podcast here on the security box. This time, what’s going on with Russia? Seems like they really can’t be trusted. Not like they were trusted for the past several years anyway.
The rss feed should have the program, but if not, this 151.0mb file should do the trick for you.
We’ve got book recommendations and we’ll revisit them as part of next podcast to see if people have read them and see what they think.
One of the books didn’t make it in to notations, and since I didn’t get to the books till the very end, I’ll go ahead and bring them to the forefront this next week so people are aware of them in full.
Here are the entire show notes.
Welcome to podcast 84 of the security box. This time, let’s discuss Russia’s involvement in pure problems. Now, they have decided to go to war, and its against Ukraine. They’ve been known to do DDOS attacks, ransomware attacks, spreading information that is not true or partially true or even completely false, denying many different things through the years ike the 2016 and 2020 presidential campaigns, and even more may be in the pipeline.
Below, please find links to some of the recent blog posts that I’ve done since the war started. In no way am I linking to everything, but you need to understand what’s going on so you can make the most informed decision on your needs based on what is actually happening.
- McDonalds apparently hacked? Russia has started going after U.S. businesses
- Conti supports Russia, threatens retaliation
- Ukrainian officials warn of new phishing attacks
- Russia VS Ukraine, could it affect us? Info from Kim Komando’s Weekend Newsletters
- The war starts with DDOS attacks against Ukraine, this is the beginning of things
- Russia and Ukraine, the battle has begun
- Cyber Security Experts weigh in on the war on Ukraine
I put the link to the video last, because while informative, we know that things are changing rapidly. I put McDonalds first because it was the last we posted and most viewed on linkedin. It got a retweet in France according to a comment.
What should you read? There are several books you can definitely read.
All of these books are written by Mark Russinovich , someone who works at Microsoft. To learn more about Mark, the various books he’s written including those I’ve linked in these notes, please visit zero day the book which is his web site. All books linked from his site I’ve read, zero day may be more of what we’re dealing with possibly right now. Some books may be available through NLS’s bard and Amazon as well as Apple Books.
I hope you all enjoy the program as much as I am bringing it together for you! We’ll be back with more blog posts and more podcasts very soon!
