Summary

In December 2019, the GOLD VILLAGE threat group that operates the Maze ransomware created a public website to name and shame victims.

Joining us in this week's Research Saturday is Alex Tilley of SecureWorks' Counter Threat Unit.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
