Mobile app security, Russian invasion of Ukraine cyber impact continues, and Evil Corp switches focus
The Cyber Security Brief is back after its summer break! In this episode, Brigid O Gorman and Dick O’Brien cover some of the stories you might have missed while we were off air. Dick discusses a recent Symantec blog that looks at the implications of poor security practices in the mobile software supply chain, and how this can lead to the exposure of an alarming amount of data. Brigid discusses some of the continuing effects of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in the world of cyber security, including some activity by the Shuckworm APT gang aimed at Ukraine, as well as a seemingly increased focus by Chinese espionage actors on Russia since the invasion began. Finally, we also discuss some recent developments by the Evil Corp cyber crime gang, and what these might mean.
