In this episode of “Financial Crime Matters,” Kieran talks with Geoff White, the author of three crucial books on financial crime, including “The Lazarus Heist: From Hollywood to High Finance: Inside North Korea's Global Cyber War.” Drawing from “The Lazarus Heist” and a plethora of recent information, Geoff details North Korea's $1.5 billion theft of ether in February from Bybit, a large global cryptocurrency exchange. During their discussion, Geoff provides a decades long history of North Korea's efforts to steal foreign currency, particularly dollars, and describes how its hackers used a third-party vendor and long-term surveillance to empty Bybit's Ethereum wallet. Geoff also describes Bybit's ongoing efforts to recover the lost cryptocurrency and argues for a concerted worldwide effort to prevent future hacks. “If North Korea gets its hands on this money it's fairly obvious what it's going to do,” Geoff says. “It's going to be spending on, well perks for the regime partly, but its going to be spending on missile parts and nuclear weapons material.” In addition to “The Lazarus Heist,” Geoff is the author of “Rinsed: From Cartels to Crypto How the Tech Industry Washes Money for the World's Deadliest Crooks” and “Crime Dot Com: From Viruses to Vote Rigging, How Hacking Went Global.”

Today, Steve is speaking with investigative tech journalist Geoff White, who has been covering tech and financial crime for more than 20 years. Listeners may be familiar with his popular podcast The Lazarus Heist for the BBC World Service, and now his new book, Rinsed: From Cartels to Crypto: How the Tech Industry Washes Money for the World's Deadliest Crooks, will be available from Penguin Random House next week. Steve and Geoff discuss current trends in organized cybercrime, how these criminals are—or maybe aren't—adopting AI, and the difficulties law enforcement still faces in helping the victims of these crimes. Key Takeaways: 1. Nation states and government agencies have been known to adopt tactics from organized crime gangs and activists – a sort of trickle-up effect. 2. As technological advancements are presenting criminals with new avenues for money laundering, law enforcement is not always able to keep up and instead is having to prioritize high level crimes. 3. The law enforcement landscape is a fast changing world, as agencies adapt and gain more awareness of cybercrime tactics relating to AI and cryptocurrencies. Tune in to hear more about: 1. Cybercrime evolution, nation-state involvement, and tactics (3:31) 2. AI use in cybercrime, potential for innovation and defense (8:29) 3. Cybercrime and money laundering, with a focus on the role of technology and law enforcement (11:45) 4. Cybercrime, crypto, and organized crime evolution (15:59) Standout Quotes: 1. “Sometimes the tools of organized cybercrime, gangs, nation states have also learned from hacktivists. From leaks from people like WikiLeaks or from Anonymous, they've learned the damage that a leak can do a leak of information can do. And that's fed into that disinformation piece nation states now extremely astute at getting in stealing information and then weaponizing that information to change elections, to change people's attitudes, to influence world events, the nation states have got both feet in to this cybercrime game.” -Geoff White 2. “I think maybe it's worth thinking like a criminal and understanding how thinking like a criminal is different to thinking like a different type of enterprise. The reason I enjoy thinking about organized crime and covering organized crime is because it's organized. These are networks, as you say, of professional, organized people. But they're not out to win customers. They're not like Microsoft and Google who wants to come out with innovation and innovative new products to win customers in their competition. No. They want to make money from victims. And frankly, as long as you're making enough money from your victims month in month out, you don't change. There's no reason to innovate. Crime gangs innovate when law enforcement and the force of authority stop them from making the money they usually make. That's when you innovate.” -Geoff White 3. “I think there was a time when, frankly, explaining Bitcoin to sort of rank and file police officers was a struggle. I think those days are gone … There's been this realization that things like cryptocurrency is something that law enforcement needs to be on top of.” -Geoff White 4. “As cryptocurrency gets larger, as more financial institutions get behind it, as governments get behind it, yes, it can make it more legitimate, it can expand the legitimacy of it. But it also creates more noise, if you like, for the criminals to hide.” -Geoff White Mentioned in this episode: ISF Analyst Insight Podcast Read the transcript of this episode Subscribe to the ISF Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts Connect with us on LinkedIn and Twitter From the Information Security Forum, the leading authority on cyber, information security, and risk management.

I think those days are gone … There's been this realization that things like cryptocurrency is something that law enforcement needs to be on top of.” -Geoff White 4. “As cryptocurrency gets larger, as more financial institutions get behind it, as governments get behind it, yes, it can make it more legitimate, it can expand the legitimacy of it. But it also creates more noise, if you like, for the criminals to hide.” -Geoff White Mentioned in this episode: ISF Analyst Insight Podcast Read the transcript of this episode Subscribe to the ISF Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts Connect with us on LinkedIn and Twitter From the Information Security Forum, the leading authority on cyber, information security, and risk management.

North Korea continues to process cargo through a border disinfection facility established during the pandemic despite taking steps to ease COVID-19 controls, according to NK Pro analysis. NK News senior analytic correspondent Colin Zwirko joins the podcast to talk about why the DPRK leadership may be using the center to search for politically sensitive goods, as well as leader Kim Jong Un's appearances at recent military drills, North Korea's deployment of a new naval vessel and more. Then, Geoff White of “The Lazarus Heist” podcast returns to discuss his new book Rinsed about how the tech industry helps launder money for criminals — including North Korean hackers. He explores how the DPRK has worked with shady partners found on the dark web and even a Nigerian influencer to clean up its dirty money, how cryptocurrency theft has supercharged its cyber operations and how the U.S. government has struggled to clamp down on the DPRK's use of crypto mixers. Geoff White (@geoffwhite247) is an investigative journalist covering technology and organized crime who has worked for the BBC, Channel 4 News, The Sunday Times and other outlets. He is the author of “The Lazarus Heist” about the DPRK's cybercrime syndicates, and his new book Rinsed on technology and money laundering will be published in June. About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Jacco Zwetsloot (@JaccoZed) exclusively for NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insight from our very own journalists.

This week, we're listening to the best new summer releases – starting with a riveting investigative podcast from the UK. The Lazarus Heist podcast charts the cybercrime exploits of an elite team of hackers allegedly connected to North Korea – a charge the secretive state denies. Season one told the story of the group's malware attack on Sony Pictures, among others, and the recently released season two picks up on what the hackers did next. And this time, there's a Canadian connection – a dark web fraudster called Big Boss is one of the North Korean hackers' international accomplices, who helped to carry out so-called jackpotting heists – whereby the hackers took control of ATM machines located across 28 countries, and stole some $14 million dollars in just a couple of hours. Plus, can psychedelics help to heal racial trauma? Truth Be Told is an award-winning podcast that explores Black liberation. The show is back for a fifth season. This time around, host Tonya Mosley looks at "the psychedelic renaissance in Black America." When paired with therapy, it's believed psychedelics can help to heal racial trauma, whether it's diagnosed PTSD or the kind of trauma that comes from being Black in a racist world. But a history of racism in healthcare along with the war on drugs has made it difficult for people of colour to explore psychedelic-led therapies. All that and more on this week's show. Featuring: The Lazarus Heist - Where do you hide 14 million dollars? The Lazarus Heist charts the cybercrime exploits of an elite team of hackers. They're allegedly connected to North Korea, though the country denies it. Truth Be Told - Truth Be Told is an award-winning podcast that explores Black liberation. The show is back for a fifth season. This time around, host Tonya Mosley looks at "the psychedelic renaissance in Black America." Bodies - This series is known for compassionately delving into medical mysteries, with an intersectional focus on the bodies of women and marginalized genders. This episode explores the impact of human touch. Hear a young girl explain what touch meant to her while visiting her incarcerated father. Grown from PRX and The Moth - Grown is all about the challenges and joys of growing up. It features a collection of stories that look at the time between the awkward teenage years to almost-adulthood. WILD - WILD is a podcast about, "how we overcome difficult moments that shape us forever." The latest season tells a true-ish story about the craziest thing one man ever did for love. Expectant - Expectant blends fiction and nonfiction, following a woman trying to decide if she wants to have a child during the climate crisis. It's intimate and confessional, sonically experimental, and features real interviews with a range of climate scientists, parents, happily childfree people and mental health experts.
Introducing season 2 of an original podcast about hackers and North Korea. They're back - in fact the criminals never went away. Season 2 begins at an ATM, possibly near you.
Over the past decade, North Korea has taken on an exceptional global role: a sovereign state believed to be at the head of an unprecedented international criminal network—one that is particularly active in cyberspace, where the North Korea-backed Lazarus Group is believed to have been responsible for several of the largest and most audacious incidents of hacking, ransomware, and outright theft of the modern era. Journalists Jean Lee and Geoff White have been documenting the Lazarus Group's activities for the BBC. The second season of their podcast, “The Lazarus Heist,” is now available. Lawfare Senior Editor Scott R. Anderson sat down with them to discuss how this second season builds on the first, what the Lazarus Group has been up to, and what it all tells us about North Korea's international position. They also gave us permission to share a preview for you, which plays after the discussion.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare. Hosted on Acast.

This week, Alan, Quinta, and Scott were joined by law professor extraordinaire Jed Shugerman to talk over his controversial take on the New York district attorney's case against former President Trump, among other items in the week's national security news, including:“If You Come at the King, You Best Not Whiff.” Former President Trump's indictment on 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree under New York state law earlier this month has triggered a firestorm of controversy, with several commentators accusing New York district attorney Alvin Bragg of advancing a weak or flawed case. What should we make of Bragg's case based on what we know so far? And what more information should we be looking for?“Factual Malice.” Fox News has settled the defamation lawsuit being pursued against it by Dominion Voting Systems for a record $787.5 million—but without having to make an on-air acknowledgement of its false statements. Does this settlement deal do justice? Should Dominion have proceeded differently?“Secret Chinese Agents, Huh?” Federal prosecutors have arrested two individuals in Brooklyn for operating a “secret police station” on behalf of the People's Republic of China's internal security forces, aimed at investigating and intimidating dissidents and other disfavored individuals. How should the United States and other governments approach these China-backed presences? Is criminal prosecution the right tool?For object lessons, Jed recommended "The Only Woman in the Room," a new biography of Israeli prime minister Golda Meir by his colleague Pnina Lahav. Quinta rolled logs for her latest piece on the Dominion settlement with Fox News in Lawfare. Alan highlighted the fact that Stormy Daniels has received a lifetime achievement award from PornHub—a publication Alan insists he reads for the articles—as well as the fantastic new Apple movie "Sharper." And Scott gave his strongest recommendation for season 2 of the phenomenal BBC podcast "The Lazarus Heist," which digs even deeper into the crimes of (and context surrounding) the North Korea-backed hacker ring, The Lazarus Group. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Cyber Security is big business. In fact, it's estimated to be worth $160 billion. But that's likely to be peanuts compared to the value of cyber crime, which is estimated to cost the global economy $600 billion in 2022 - nearly 1% of the global economy. And just one corner of that - ransomware - costs the same in damage and paid-out fees as the entire cyber security industry: $160 billion. In fact, if ransomware was a country, its GDP would be higher than Morocco or Kuwait. In this episode, we'll be examining the rise of ransomware, where the risk lies in modern-day attacks, who is behind them, and what we can do about it.For Hewlett Packard Enterprise Senior Vice President and Global Chief Security Officer Bobby Ford, defeating ransomware is a constant and growing battle because its a straightforward payout for criminal gangs - there is no need to try and sell stolen data on the dark web or to foreign governments, you simply sell the victim back their access. He argues that the key to protecting ourselves is twofold. Firstly, use two-factor authentication wherever possible to guard against human weak-points such as opening infected emails. Secondly, be prepared to defend yourself. Be aware of the threats and where they are coming from, and mitigate them where you can, so long as it doesn't affect the running of your organisation. Beyond that, have a plan in place for being attacked, be that data recovery or, unfortunately, paying up. Chris Rogers is a Technologist at cyber security firm Zerto. He agrees that ransomware can be hard to avoid because humans are an inherent weakpoint, and ransomware attacks often come through human social engineering rather than password cracking. He points out that even momentary downtime can cause millions of dollars in damages. He agrees with Bobby that robust, quickly spooled up backups are an essential part of doing business. Unfortunately, that's easier said than done: Backups can sometimes be limited access, which is great for security but leaves organisations vulnerable if the key holder isn't immediately available. Beyond that, backups have to maintained incredibly regularly, as even a day's lost work for a large organisation can be a major blow. On the other hand, any back-up is better than no preparation at all. But how are cyber security threats like ransomware being treated at the very top of the tree? When it comes to cyber security, it doesn't get much more high value or (hopefully) secure than financial institutions. George Webster is chief Security Architect for HSBC. His office is tasked with quickly assessing threats, in particular APTs or Advanced Persistent Threats, and providing tools to counter them. He argues that the primary risk increase of the last couple of years has been people working from home, in situations where there are distractions and their security awareness may not be as strong as it was in the office. He also argues that on a wider level, it's not just staff who become more vulnerable as they are spread out: As ransomware becomes an increasing problem internationally, no organisation is safe anywhere in the world and being aware of the risk is key to countering it without shutting yourself off from the outside.The long show notes for this episode can be found here: https://community.hpe.com/t5/hpe-blog-uk-ireland-middle-east/ransomware-should-we-be-worried/ba-p/7183709#.Y_3FpHbP1PY

There's a rising superpower in the world of money—a country that's cut off from the global financial network, but which is playing an increasingly prominent and disruptive role within it.Though the country denies it, researchers are almost certain that over the last three decades, North Korea has been behind some of the most audacious and brazen frauds in history. These have involved counterfeiting, theft, hacking, bank raids, ransomware and cyber-attacks. The attacks have been planned well in advance and executed with military precision. North Korea's evident skills in these areas have both shocked and impressed the analysts who have studied its exploits. As more and more of our payments move online, North Korea's ability to disrupt the financial system through hacks, thefts and other disruptive activity is getting more dangerous.To talk about this important topic, in the latest New Money Review podcast I was joined by Geoff White, an investigative journalist, a specialist in cybersecurity and the author of a recent book on North Korea called the Lazarus Heist.Listen in for a thrilling story that anyone involved in finance, technology or politics should know about.
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?

On this episode of #AudioBookClub - no longer the world's only interactive audiobook review and recommendation podcast - Steve and Matthew speak to journalist and author Geoff White about his new audiobook 'The Lazarus Heist'. The book is based on the BBC's award winning podcast series of the same name and, in both formats, Geoff tells the story of the Lazarus Group - an elite group of North Korean government-backed hackers. This is the first time we've encountered an audiobook based on a podcast series, so we ask ourselves and Geoff what the difference between the two formats is, both for him as an author/journalist/presenter and for us as listeners. We also touch upon the differences between working for the BBC and for a publishing company like Penguin; and Geoff reminds us that while we haven't necessarily seen many visible signs of any cyber fallout from the war in Ukraine, there is a lot of defensive effort being undertaken in places like GCHQ and Fort Meade. -- Get involved in the conversation.

After 36 shows featuring the finest podcasters in all the land, we decided to not take a breather to celebrate our first year, but produce a bonus episode of MetaPod.Maybe it's a slightly vain idea that listeners might want to hear about us, but we also wanted to catch up with each other about our packed calendar of episodes from 2021 – this time IN-PERSON (the shock, the horror!). So here it is – a record of ourselves talking with each other about ourselves and our wonderful show.It's not as bad as it sounds – honest.Fuelled by tea and extraordinarily good doughnuts (courtesy of Crosstown in London's Square Mile), we tackle a few entertaining questions about MetaPod guests and topics.

“Almost a perfect crime. The hacking ring and an attempt to steal a billion dollars. Investigators blame North Korea. Pyongyang denies involvement. The story begins in Hollywood.”The Lazarus Heist is a BBC World Service podcast examining cybercrime and how modern nation-states are utilising such tactics. The story starts with the 2014 hack into Sony Pictures' information systems. The operation led to a shutdown of the company's computer networks, seizure of its digital files and leak of confidential information into the public domain. The perpetrator? North Korea.“What's interesting about the Sony hack is that it did demonstrate this other purpose of a cyber hack, which I believe is to sow discord or chaos,” says Jean Lee, journalist and co-host of The Lazarus Heist.There are other reasons cyber hacks are utilised by North Korea, according to Jean Lee — “to use it as a form of asymmetric warfare.”To illustrate the global threat that cybercrime presents, The Lazarus Heist also highlights other significant cyberattacks. These include the 2016 Bangladesh Bank heist and the 2017 Wannacry ransomware attack that affected the UK's National Health Service (NHS). Other culprits involved in these cyber attacks? Microsoft, the United States National Security Agency (NSA) and Russian intelligence groups.Jean Lee's knowledge of Korea, North and South, combined with Geoff White's knowledge of cybercrime add up to a fascinating story of technology, culture and history in The Lazarus Heist. The story is as important for understanding the effects of cybercrime on individuals and society as it is for understanding modern international relations.In this episode of MetaPod, we learn about cybercrime methods and why they have become attractive instruments of asymmetric warfare and income generation for North Korea.
This week we're talking about HACKERS and CYBER CRIME. The Lazarus Heist podcast tells the story of the Lazarus group, an illicit ring of hackers that investigators say are linked to North Korea. The group attempted to steal over a billion US dollars and are said to be behind the 2014 Sony hack. So this week we discuss our encounters with North Korea and the problematic, dehumanizing way North Koreans tend to be depicted. Does this podcast do anything to dismantle these tropes? And what are North Korean booze cruises and why are they so deeply unethical? Lazarus Heist is a podcast produced by the BBC World Service with North Korea expert and former correspondent Jean Lee, and Geoff White, an investigative journalist and technology specialist.

North Korea is back in the headlines, and as usual, it's not because they've invented a new soft drink.

Dario is joined in this episode by two of the leading lights of Podcast Studies to discuss some of the major changes in podcasting infrastructure and their implications. Apple's decision to add a mechanism for paid subscriptions to its podcasting architecture is a move that is arguably as significant as when the iTunes first specified podcasting in its audio listening directory. In a recent article in The Conversation co-written by John Sullivan (Professor of Media and Communication, Muhlenberg College), Kim Fox (Professor of Practice in Journalism and Mass Communication, American University in Cairo) & Richard Berry (Senior Lecturer in Radio, University of Sunderland) place this transformation in the context of wider shifts in podcasting's industrial and economic infrastructure. John and Richard discuss with Dario the key points of the article (Kim was unfortunately double-booked with another meeting at the last minute), including how the big tech companies are fighting for market share over content and technological delivery in various ways, what impact this will have on the ways shows are developed, produced and listened to, along with the question of whether this signals the end to the more creative, open-source democratic ethos that is often associated with the medium. Shownotes Richard mentions Fiona Sturges Guardian article: A real turn off: Are celebrities ruining podcasting? Richard recommends The Lazarus Heist & Cold Case Crime Cuts John recommends Podland Podcast & 1800 Seconds on Autism Dario recommends Floodlines and Crushed If you enjoy the show please consider sharing and commenting on your social media networks.
