Scattered Spider and other criminal compromise. 

Cynthia Kaiser, SVP of Halcyon’s Ransomware Research Center and former Deputy Assistant Director at the FBI’s Cyber Division, joins Dave Bittner on the CyberWire Daily podcast to discuss how threat groups like Scattered Spider are increasingly targeting outsourcing providers to scale their access to victims. She explains how this evolving criminal strategy widens the blast radius of ransomware attacks and stresses the need for resilience and layered defenses in third-party ecosystems.

Halcyon is the world’s first cyber resilience platform designed from day one to defeat ransomware. Global 2000 companies rely on Halcyon to augment existing XDR/EDR platforms and undo attacks in minutes with bypass and evasion protection, key capture and automated decryption, and exfiltration and extortion prevention.
