Scammers use Deepfakes when sending Phishing emails.
Ransomware? Easy
cash for attackers. Phishing? Nothing but cash. Spam? All kinds of ways
to monetize people clicking links. Data breaches? That stuff gets used
for fraud and the rest gets sold off (to be used
for more fraud). Nation state attacks? Sure there’s ideology, but when
you consider that US sanctions no doubt played a part in Russia’s
motivation for attacking the 2016 election, money is in the equation.
And that’s not to mention nation state hackers moonlighting for
extra cash.
