Chinese State Hackers, Ransom Negotiation, And Listener Questions

This week on Hacker And The Fed we discuss private data leaking due to a misconfiguration, and no one is listening to the researchers. We are shown the mindset of hackers during a ransom negotiation, a cell phone provider is hacked for the 9th time in 6 years, there are 50 Chinese state hackers for every FBI cyber agent, and using AI to help hack. And finally, we answer listener questions about .xyz, pen testing tools, and possible Hacker And The Fed swag.
