Summary

The US continues to count the cost of the SVR’s successful cyberespionage campaign. Attribution, and why it’s the TTPs and not the org chart that matters. Emotet makes an unhappy holiday return. It seems unlikely that NSA and US Cyber Command will be separated in the immediate future. Big Tech objects, in court, to NSO Group and its Pegasus spyware (or lawful intercept product, depending on whether you’re in the plaintiff’s or the respondent’s corner). Ben Yelin looks at hyper realistic masks designed to thwart facial recognition software. Our guest Neal Dennis from Cyware wonders if there really isn't a cybersecurity skills gap. And a quick look at some more predictions. For links to all of today's stories check out our CyberWire daily news brief: https://www.thecyberwire.com/newsletters/daily-briefing/9/245
