Digital Shadows

In this week's ShadowTalk, Digital Shadows’ Russian-speaking security specialist discovered files and source code allegedly related to the Carbanak organized criminal group. The Carbanak malware is a backdoor used by the Anunak (Carbanak) Group to infiltrate financial institutions and steal funds. Richard Gold and Simon Hall join Rafael Amado to discuss the implications for financial services from these revelations. We ask whether this leak represents a threat to organizations, and how businesses can best defend themselves from the techniques used by sophisticated financial criminal groups such as Carbanak.
