Policy & Intelligence
Tom Uren and Amberleigh Jack talk about how America can better use its private sector to scale up offensive cyber activities, including espionage and disruption operations. Involving it to tackle ransomware and cryptocurrency scammers makes a lot of sense.
They also talk about how the ransomware ecosystem is splintering, and one operator’s relatively quick journey from being an affiliate to a platform operator.
