Ep 6: The Gunslingers
Podcast: To Catch a Thief: North Korea On Our PayrollPublished On: Mon Apr 14 2025
Description: During China’s pseudo-cyber-hiatus, the PRC’s hacking operations get a major overhaul.

In Episode 6, host and former New York Times cybersecurity reporter, Nicole Perlroth lays out what it looked like as China’s hackers went underground… and what we missed in Eastern Europe as they did.
