Tracking hacking groups has become a booming business. Dozens of so-called \\u201cthreat intelligence\\u201d companies keep tabs on them and sell subscriptions to feeds where they provide customers with up to date information on what the most advanced cyber criminals and government hackers are up to. Lots of these are small companies, but one of the best in the biz you\'ve definitely heard of: It\'s Google. The internet giant has more than 1.5 billion active users on Gmail, more than 1 billion people who use Chrome, and more than 2 billion of their Android phones floating around in the world.

This week, Ben Makuch talks to Shane Huntley, the Director of Google\'s Threat Analysis Group (TAG). TAG is essentially Google\\u2019s hacker hunting team: they\\u2019re the ones tasked with monitoring Google networks for criminal and government hacking groups.
