77: Olympic Destroyer

In February 2018, during the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang South Korea, a cyber attack struck, wiping out a lot of the Olympic’s digital infrastructure. Teams rushed to get things back up, but it was bad. Malware had repeatedly wiped the domain controllers rendering a lot of the network unusable. Who would do such a thing? We will talk with  Andy Greenberg  to discuss Olympic Destroyer, a chapter from his book  Sandworm (affiliate link). Sponsors Support for this show comes from  Linode .
