USA: That is extremely bold to continue your crime after cooperating with the government. I thought Albert was going to Mitnick his way out of there but I guess not.

Re: Bold
Cybercrimes are now an issue for many countries, and i think that countries have to organise their defense.

Nice Slideshow would have appreciated the Financial Details more
Hi [email protected]!!!

This is a most informative slideshow.

However,would have loved if it had more information on much money each country would have taken in from various hacking operations(& also which countries have lost the most cash).

What is increasingly apparent is that most of the hacking events/Targets are involved in Financial theft so it makes more and more sense to keep your Financial Databases,etc isolated from the General Internet with no Web facing Apps whatsoever.

Will that make the whole experience a little boring;Sure.

But it will save companies enormous financial Burdens in the Long run.

Slide 11
re: India... Not especially surprising, I suppose, considering that according to other reports, many black-hat non-hacker hired guns are hired there for pennies for such tasks as decoding CAPTCHAs and spamming message boards for black-hat SEO.

And more advanced practitioners are better at hiding their true location. Usually by tailing through India! For example, you didn't see me here.

Reply to hacks and spammers
just send them all a 'Write Zeroes' command back tracked to them to take them down and erase all their data.

Diverse attacks
Quite an interesting atlas of cybercrimes. Not just the countries mentioned but the types of attacks. I'd be interested in seeing an updated one of these perhaps as soon as next year to see how attacks are changing. Would an updated atlas have more critical infrastructure attacks?

Atlas
Some interesting points.  Guess I was expecting interactive maps showing traced origins by intensity, sophistication, impact, etc... over time.  

Learned some things, in any case.

Curious
Are we still stuck on the idea that the country who owns an IP block where an attack originated from is somehow involved/complicit in the attack? Where did this list come from? Was the genesis of this article taking a list of the recently busted and then sprinkling facts about their country of origin?

The 10 Most Impactful Types of Vulnerabilities for Enterprises Today
Managing system vulnerabilities is one of the old est - and most frustrating - security challenges that enterprise defenders face. Every software application and hardware device ships with intrinsic flaws - flaws that, if critical enough, attackers can exploit from anywhere in the world. It's crucial that defenders take stock of what areas of the tech stack have the most emerging, and critical, vulnerabilities they must manage. It's not just zero day vulnerabilities. Consider that CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog lists vulnerabilitlies in widely used applications that are "actively exploited," and most of them are flaws that were discovered several years ago and have been fixed. There are also emerging vulnerabilities in 5G networks, cloud infrastructure, Edge applications, and firmwares to consider.
