Risky Business #648 – Adios, 2021, it's been real

On this week’s show Patrick Gray and Adam Boileau discuss the week’s security news, including:

1. NSO Group tools found on US embassy staff phones in Uganda
2. Mitto is up to shady bidnez
3. Ubiquiti “whistleblower” charged over hack
4. Hounds everywhere
5. Planned Parenthood breached
6. Much, much more

This week’s sponsor interview is with Andrew Morris of GreyNoise.

GreyNoise has a bunch of sensors out there on the Internets, so they can tell you when and IP that’s hitting you is also hitting everyone else. If you work in a SOC, you know this is very useful. GreyNoise has just signed a $30m deal with the US Department of Defense. As Andrew will explain in just a moment, this means if you work in a DoD agency it’s now very easy for you to get a subscription. In this interview I also talk to Andrew about his adventures chasing down one of the people spamming Internet attached receipt printers with the antiwork manifesto from Reddit.
