In this episode of Breaking Badness, host Kali Fencl is joined by DomainTools' Daniel Schwabe and disinformation expert Scot Terban to uncover how modern Russian disinformation campaigns are using domain registrars, homoglyph attacks, and generative AI to mimic legitimate news outlets and manipulate public perception. From the eerie sophistication of Doppelganger operations to the exploitation of domain infrastructure, this episode sheds light on how truth is being weaponized in the digital era. We also explore how AI is accelerating the speed and scale of these attacks, and the limited levers defenders have to push back.
In this episode of Breaking Badness, host Kali Fencl welcomes Wes Young of CSIRT Gadgets and Daniel Schwalbe, CISO and head of investigations at DomainTools, dive into a recent DomainTools Investigations (DTI) analysis involving ValleyRAT and Silver Fox, and how new tools are enabling faster, more accessible analysis for junior and seasoned analysts alike. Whether you're a threat intel veteran or an aspiring analyst, this episode is packed with hard-earned lessons, technical insights, and future-forward thinking. They also unpack the evolution of threat intelligence from early higher-ed days of wiki-scraped snort rules to today's graph-powered AI analysis. Wes shares the origin story behind his platform AlphaHunt, how it's being used to automate and enhance threat detection, and why community sharing remains essential even in an era of advanced tooling.

Attribution, analytics and analyzing data is today's topic. What does the report say? Does it accurately display the past and does it accurately help us predict the future? Marketers are in a world of big data. We've gone from nothing to overload. So there is a lot to help marketers in high tech and not in high tech of how to best use the data available to them. "How do I interpret the data?" Perhaps a better question is, "What answers and knowledge am I seeking to move forward?" You need to organize the metrics to interpret the metrics. The questions of what you seek are critical. Do we have the fundamental metrics that the business needs to understand the health of the business? Within the channels of my function, how do I use metrics to ensure that my efforts are working? Do we have the capabilities to answer the adhoc questions that come up in business? Listen to this show to get a more organized list of what you need to know first before you even pull the data.
