Diana Selck-Paulsson is the lead security researcher at Orange Cyberdefense, which is a managed security services provider that serves a worldwide client base. Her background in the social sciences as a criminologist with a specific focus on cybercrime has given her unique insight in the cybersecurity challenges facing organizations. In this episode of Studio 471, we discuss two areas where Orange Cyberdefense has produced unique research in its Security Navigator 2024 report: cyber extortion and hacktivism. We tackle whether cyber extortion can be deterred and also the deeper effects of hacktivism, which can eclipse technical disruptions.
