Episode Synopsis
The Lazarus Heist – From Hollywood to High Finance: Inside North Korea’s Global Cyber War, is a book that sprang from the hit 10-part BBC podcast series of the same name, which our guest today, Geoff White, co-hosted and which immediately ranked number one in the UK Apple chart and within the top 7 in the US. Season 2 of the podcast will be out in late 2022.About The Lazarus HeistMeet the Lazarus Group, a shadowy cabal of hackers accused of working on behalf of the North Korean state. It's claimed that they form one of the most dangerous criminal enterprises on the planet, having stolen more than $1bn in an international crime spree. Their targets allegedly include central banks, Hollywood film studios and even the British National Health Service. North Korea denies the allegations, saying the accusations are American attempts to tarnish its image.In this staggering, global investigation, award-winning journalist Geoff White examines how the hackers have harnessed cutting-edge technology to launch a decade-long campaign of brazen and merciless raids on its richer, more powerful adversaries. It's not just money they're after. The Lazarus Group's tactics have been used to threaten democracies, gag North Korea's critics and destabilize global peace.From the bustling streets of Dhaka, to the glamorous studios of Hollywood, to the glittering casinos of Macau and the secretive dynastic court of Pyongyang, this shocking story uncovers the secret world of the Lazarus Group, their victims and the people who have tried - and ultimately, so far failed - to stop them._____________________________GuestGeoff WhiteAuthor, speaker, investigative journalist and podcast creator who has worked for the BBC [@BBC], Audible [@audible_com], Penguin [@penguinrandom], Sky News [@SkyNews], The Sunday Times [@thetimes] and many moreOn Twitter | https://twitter.com/geoffwhite247On LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/geoffwhite247/On YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/user/c4newstechnology_____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsBlue Lava: https://itspm.ag/blue-lava-w2qs_____________________________ResourcesBook | The Lazarus Heist – From Hollywood to High Finance: Inside North Korea’s Global Cyber War: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/447/447163/the-lazarus-heist/9780241554258.htmlBook | Crime Dot Com: From Viruses to Vote Rigging, How Hacking Went Global: https://www.amazon.com/Crime-Dot-Com-Viruses-Rigging/dp/1789142857MITRE ATT&CK Entry for The Lazarus Group: https://attack.mitre.org/groups/G0032/Article: https://www.nccgroup.com/us/the-lazarus-group-north-korean-scourge-for-10-years/Previous Episode: https://itspmagazine.simplecast.com/episodes/the-hacker-journalist-dance-the-need-for-trust-transparency-and-storytelling-in-cybersecurity-a-conversation-with-geoff-white-and-jake-williams_____________________________For more podcast stories from Audio Signals: https://www.itspmagazine.com/audio-signalsFor more about Black Hat and DEF CON in our event coverage podcasts, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/black-hat-2022-and-def-con-hacker-summer-camp-las-vegas-usa-cybersecurity-event-and-conference-coverageAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/sponsor-the-itspmagazine-podcast-network Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
