Crimeware-As-A-Service

Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and Larry page are only three of the many large business owners that we hear of on a daily basis. What you don’t know is that there is a much longer list of big business owners out there, those of which have access to and are bathing millions of dollars and all of whom we have not even heard about. This inexplicable fraction of people too are owners of large businesses - Businesses that are known as Crimeware-As-A-Service, the newest fad on the dark web. On the phone with me is Chester Wisniewsk, the Global Spokesperson and Principal Research Scientist at SOPHOS, who’s done a quick look, a glimpse behind the curtain: A look into Crimeware-As-A-Service and what’s happening in the dark web.
