How cybercriminals target businesses like yours
Imagine a business with specialized offerings, they’re recruiting talent, tracking and improving KPIs, and selling sought-after services. It sounds like they’re growing and successful, right? It might even sound like your business or one of your industry peers. But that’s how cybercriminal groups are operating. And here’s how they do it.
Business of the Year: Organized Cybercrime
NAM: October 27, 12:00 PM EDT | EMEA: 27 October, 5:00 PM BST | APAC: 8 December, 10:00 AM AEST 12:00 PM NZST
If there were an award for the industry making the biggest moves this year, organized cybercrime would be a top contender. It's estimated to top $10 trillion a year, rivaling the world's largest economies, with innocent businesses bearing the cost. That threat to commerce is why billions are being poured into cyber capabilities across the financial sector.
In this episode of _declassified, Huntress' John Hammond joins a key leader from one of the world's largest payments companies to follow the money. When businesses go dark, suppliers go unpaid, payroll gets disrupted, and customers spend elsewhere. Some of that loss becomes revenue for the adversary. Multiply it across millions of companies, and a dark industry emerges, with everyone else left paying for its success.
Save your spot to see why organized cybercrime is our nominee for the dubious honor of Business of the Year.

RANSOMWARE
Wrecking businesses to feed their own
Ransomware groups make up a huge chunk of the cybercrime economy for a reason: their attacks work. If an org isn’t secure, it doesn’t take long for attackers to quietly steal data and take over their infrastructure…at least until they get paid. But here’s how you wreck ‘em.

BUSINESS EMAIL COMPROMISE
Stealing identities & credentials is easier than ever
While the cybercriminals behind business email compromise are after wire transfers and stolen data, they get there by targeting human trust—and they’re only getting better at it. (Just not good enough to hide from Huntress, though.)
