2022 Year in Review: Ransomware & Commodity Loaders Livestream Replay
Summary: Cisco Talos released a livestream episode on the ransomware and commodity loader findings from its 2022 Year in Review report, hosted by Mitch Neff with guests Aliza Johnson, Azim Khodjibaev, and Nick Biasini. Talos said the ransomware space is dynamic and continually adapts to changes in the geopolitical environment, actions by defenders, and law enforcement efforts that increased in scope and intensity in 2022.
Bottom line: Talos ties the 2022 ransomware shifts directly to geopolitical change, defender actions, and expanded law enforcement pressure, meaning the threat landscape security leaders plan against is being reshaped by forces outside their own controls.
