Crime involving a computer and a network

There is a con called the Spanish Prisoner. A letter arrives from a stranger: a wealthy man sits in a foreign jail, and for a small advance to free him, he will reward you many times over. The trick is at least four hundred years old. It is also, give or take a few details, the email sitting in your spam folder this morning. I keep that in mind whenever someone tells me cybercrime is a technology problem. The tools change. The mark does not. We are still robbed through the same prehistoric wiring: a flash of fear, a moment of greed, a decision made in panic before the slow part of the brain wakes up. That is the thread I pulled on with Sarah Armstrong-Smith at InfoSecurity Europe. Sarah spent nearly thirty years in cyber and crisis leadership, was Chief Security Advisor at Microsoft, and now runs Secure Horizons. She has written two books on the human side of all this and sits on the UK Government Cyber Advisory Board. After all of it, she says the thing most people in her position will not say out loud: whatever we are doing is not working. More tools, more money, more people, more AI, and the problem keeps getting worse. Attack, wake-up call, attack, wake-up call. How many wake-up calls, she asks, does anyone need? I asked what keeps her up at night. She described an industrial accident on the scale of 9/11, triggered through a network: the first time a cyber incident kills people in numbers. We have been lucky so far. She doubts luck is a plan. The industry loves a big number, and the number is exactly where the human disappears. X million records stolen, Y terabytes gone. The day before, my friend Geoff White sat in this same chair and described a ransomware attack that shut down a hospital, which meant a woman missed the cancer appointment she had counted on. That is an Armageddon, and it has a name and a face. Sarah, as it happens, knows Geoff's work well enough to carry a line from him on the back of her book. The human element keeps finding the same small circle of people willing to talk about it. So how do we move this from a line item to a fact of society? Her answer is collective resilience. There is no prize for being the last one standing, because we are all wired into the same supply chain, the same dependencies, the same brittle web. And the smallest businesses, the ones without a war chest to ride out the storm, are the ones we discuss the least. Then a statistic. Close to half of all crime in the UK is now fraud or cyber. Around one percent of policing is pointed at it. Read those two numbers again. We fund what we can see, and we want officers on the street because a visible patrol both deters the thief and reassures the neighbourhood. The crime that actually empties our accounts happens somewhere we have agreed not to look. Follow the money, Sarah says, and you rarely stop at one criminal's pocket. It pays for the next thing: drugs, weapons, and more often than people imagine, the trafficking of human beings. Will AI save us? She did not flinch. Whatever you build to detect, the other side uses to evade. The asymmetry holds. Technology is part of the answer and never the whole of it, because the problem was never only technical. So what do we carry forward, and what do we leave behind? We carry the person behind the number: the one who misses the appointment, the small shop that never reopens. We leave behind the fantasy that a clever enough machine will spare us the harder work, which is teaching a whole society to recognize the Spanish Prisoner when it arrives, wearing this year's technology. Sarah's books are linked below, with a second edition on the way. Geoff's conversation is part of this same coverage. And if you want more of these, the newsletter lives at marcociappelli.com.

There is a moment in every conversation about cybercrime when the criminal stops being a shadow and becomes a person with a desk, a calendar, and a complaint about Monday. That moment is the one that interests me. For years I've been told cybersecurity is a technical problem. Firewalls, patches, acronyms nobody outside the room understands. And it is, partly. But sit with Geoff White for fifteen minutes at InfoSecurity Europe and the technical layer becomes what it always was underneath: people. People who get out of bed, argue with their partners, drink too much vodka after a breakup, and worry about a grandmother in the hospital — while running an extortion racket that, somewhere else, is shutting down the hospital treating someone else's grandmother. Geoff is an investigative journalist and author who has built a career out of refusing to let crime stay abstract. His new BBC series, Cyber Hack — the strand that grew out of The Lazarus Heist — turns its attention to one of the world's biggest ransomware gangs, Conti. And here is the detail that stayed with me: he has read their mail. Three hundred thousand internal messages, leaked, written by the criminals themselves when they assumed no one was watching. A journalist's candy store, as he called it. Also a nightmare — in Russian, thick with slang, mistranslated so often that “Bitcoin” comes out as “cue ball” and money hides behind the word for “grandmothers.” What fascinates me is not the heist. It is the self-portrait. Because the gang does not see a gang. They see a company. They have clients, they say. Customers. Negotiations conducted professionally. Some of them even hand the victim a report afterward — here is how we got in, here is what you should fix — as though extortion were a security audit with an invoice attached. Geoff has a theory I find hard to argue with: extortion is exhausting work for a smart person to do every day, so the brain quietly rewrites the job description. Criminal becomes businessman. The part that knows the truth shrinks. The story they tell themselves takes over. I'm Italian, so of course The Godfather arrived uninvited in the middle of our conversation. It's a business. Nothing personal. We laughed — I get to make that joke and Geoff doesn't — but underneath the laugh is something genuinely unsettling, and it has nothing to do with hackers. It's about all of us. We are all narrating ourselves into the people we'd prefer to be. The ransomware gang simply does it with higher stakes and worse intentions. This is why storytelling isn't decoration on top of cybersecurity. It's the only tool that makes the invisible visible. Geoff's last BBC series landed at number seven on the US charts, a few slots below Joe Rogan, because he tells these stories as stories — with the technical iceberg sitting safely below the waterline. People learn when they aren't being lectured. And we should learn, quickly. The same week I'm laughing about cue balls, Geoff describes cloning his own mother's voice with an AI tool and phoning her. She thought the line was just a little muffled. I told him what I tell my parents: if anything feels strange, hang up and call me directly. A pre-digital instinct, used as armor against a very digital trick. So what do we carry forward, and what do we leave behind? We carry the stories. We leave behind the comfortable idea that any of this is happening somewhere else, to someone else. The new season of Cyber Hack is expected in July. Listen to it — not because it will scare you, though it might, but because it makes a hidden world legible, and legibility is where every defense we have begins. Geoff's books and the show are linked below. And if you'd like more of these conversations, subscribe to the newsletter at marcociappelli.com.

What happens when an AI agent inside your company starts behaving like an insider threat? In part two, Steve Moore picks the thread back up with former FBI operative Eric O'Neill to explore how agentic AI is rewriting cybersecurity, the legal traps that follow a breach, and why the modern CISO must think like a spy hunter.Eric opens with a sobering reality: ransomware victims who decline to pay are re-attacked at staggering rates. He explains why criminals treat cybercrime as a business, invest weeks in reconnaissance—mapping SharePoint, harvesting file trees, and studying access patterns—and why a botched recovery hands them the same door twice.The conversation turns to the new insider threat hiding in plain sight: rogue AI agents. Eric shares a real case in which one executive's casual query exposed the next round of layoffs and triggered coordinated lawsuits. They unpack how agents inherit excessive access, how attackers hijack them once inside, and why organizations are now building insider-threat programs to monitor AI behavior.Eric argues AI is an accelerant on every unresolved problem—weak identity management, entitlement drift, missing asset inventories, and absent data classification. They debate whether IT and security should be unified under the CISO, why the CISO needs a direct line to the board, and the legal landmines that follow a breach, from cyber insurance to the “reasonable steps” standard.The episode closes with Eric's advice for any new CISO: put “spy hunter” on your resume. Counterintelligence, not perimeter defense, is the discipline that wins today. Tune in for part two of a story-driven conversation on why preparation, mindset, and threat hunting beat any single technology.Key Topics• Why ransomware victims who decline to pay get re-attacked• How attackers map SharePoint, file trees, and access patterns• The new insider threat: rogue and hijacked AI agents• A real case of an AI agent exposing an HR layoff list• Shadow IT and the cost of banning AI outright• Permission structures and second-level reviews for agent actions• Why AI exposes gaps in identity, asset, and data classification• Unifying IT and security under the CISO• Why the CISO needs a direct line to the board• Legal traps: cyber insurance, reasonable steps, and missed alerts• The CISO as counterintelligence officer and spy hunterGuest BioEric O'Neill is a former FBI counterintelligence operative, attorney, and bestselling author who helped bring down Robert Hanssen—the most damaging spy in FBI history. He is the founder of NeXasure AI and co-founder of The Georgetown Group, and his undercover work was dramatized in the film Breach.

Linus Torvalds not into AI bug hunters 7-Eleven hit with ransom demand MENA runs new cybercrime op Get the show notes here: https://cisoseries.com/cybersecurity-news-linus-torvalds-talks-ai-bug-hunters-7-eleven-ransom-demand-menas-new-cybercrime-op/ Thanks to our episode sponsor, ThreatLocker ThreatLocker is extending Zero Trust beyond endpoint control. With their recent release of Zero Trust Network Access and Zero Trust Cloud Access, access isn't based on credentials alone, it requires the right user, the right device, and the right conditions. Because as we've seen in recent large-scale CRM breaches, stolen credentials and misconfigurations can expose massive amounts of data. With ThreatLocker, nothing is exposed, and access is limited to exactly what's needed. Learn more and start your free trial today at ThreatLocker.com/CISO.
Get featured on the show by leaving us a Voice Mail: https://bit.ly/MIPVM This episode explores how AI is accelerating both productivity and cyber risk. As attacks become faster and more automated, traditional perimeter security no longer holds. The conversation focuses on why organisations must assume compromise, adopt zero trust thinking, and build visibility before scaling AI. It highlights practical steps to govern AI use, reduce insider risk, and modernise access models beyond legacy VPNs. The core message is clear: embracing AI without security foundations can move your business backwards.
Cybercrime has officially entered its "hold my beer" era. In this episode, we break down the FBI's annual Internet Crime Complaint Center report and the numbers are equal parts fascinating and horrifying. We're talking over $20 billion in reported losses, exploding ransomware attacks, AI-powered scams, fake charities, romance cons, business email compromises, and criminals who apparently work harder than some middle managers. It's a practical, eye-opening look at how modern scams actually work — and why staying skeptical online may now qualify as a survival skill. More info at HelpMeWithHIPAA.com/560
