Supply Chain Attacks
Manage episode 507421232 series 1411238
This month marked the discovery of one of the largest NPM compromises in history. Though AI-assisted social engineering, a profilic developer dubbed Qix was phished. His account was then maliciously used to publish poisoned packages, many of which were used to manipulate crypto transactions. Thankfully, it was detected before too many users downloaded these packages, but it highlights how vulnerable we can be if these upstream components get compromised. In this special State of Cybercrime episode, Matt and David break down this NPM compromise, and cover everything else new in the world of cybercrime.
