NotPetya: Ransomware vs. Cyber Action

Presented at The Circle Of HOPE (2018), July 21, 2018, noon (60 minutes)

The NotPetya "ransomware" made the headlines last summer because it spread widely and hit major logistics supply chain companies. It caused $10 billion in overall damages. This presentation will dissect the technical, disinformation, and influence operation components of this extremely effective and misunderstood campaign.
