Storm Watch | Cyber Insights | Honoring Ross J. Anderson, Interview With Horizon3AI's Zach Hanley & China's APT31 Sanctions
Summary: This episode of GreyNoise's Storm Watch opens with a tribute to Ross J. Anderson, whose textbook "Security Engineering" and work in machine learning, cryptographic protocols, and digital rights advocacy shaped the field. The episode also features Horizon3AI's Zach Hanley discussing the NodeZero platform and the three key challenges in the firm's 2023 report "Proactive Cybersecurity Unleashed," and covers U.S. Treasury sanctions on individuals linked to the Chinese hacking group APT31, a Water Sector Cybersecurity Task Force formed in response to Volt Typhoon, and China's revised state secrets law.
Key Takeaway: The U.S. Treasury has sanctioned individuals tied to APT31, a group known for targeting critical U.S. infrastructure, while a new Water Sector Cybersecurity Task Force stands up in response to Volt Typhoon - two Chinese groups pressing on utilities and infrastructure at the same time.
