They Are Targeting Government Contractors.  The host for this show is Jay Fidell.  The guests are Attila Seress and Gerhard Rickert.  
\n
\nAtilla Seress of Cylanda and cybersecurity professional Gerard Rickert tell us about a spike in cyberattacks targeting local businesses that are prime or subcontractors for government work in Hawaii. Because of the nature of this targeting, a nation-state actor may be behind them. The attacks are being delivered as very believable, highly targeted emails that direct victims to a convincing copy of a Hawaii.gov website that is intended to harvest email credentials.
\n
\nYou may have heard about cyberattacks by foreign governments like North Korea, Russia and Iran from the news. They\u2019re all too common and are referred to as nation-state threats, directing their attacks on critical infrastructure, military and businesses. On their hit list is gathering federally protected infrastructure data such as blueprints and internal documents, and personal information that could be used for extortion and backdoor access to government networks.
