Cyber Beat Live: Analyzing the WannaCry Response — Fact or FUD?

Published: June 20, 2017, 1:20 p.m.

Last month's WannaCry malware attack sent both the media and many CEOs into a full-fledged frenzy. In this podcast, IBM Security's Bob Stasio and guests Ronnie Tokazowski, Senior Malware Analyst at Flashpoint, and Matt Lembright, CEO and co-founder at Enabld, examine the extent to which FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) colored the WannaCry response. They also discuss whether ransomware is really the type of destructive attack companies should prepare for or if resources are perhaps better spent fighting more targeted malware attacks, such as Shamoon.
