Last year, threat researchers all over the world got a sneak peek into the inner workings of the Russian defence contractor NTC Vulkan.
The Vulkan files leak provided an interesting behind the scenes look at Russian cyber capabilities and scalability, and the ways state sponsored organisation work.
Joe Slowik, managing threat intelligence at the cybersecurity company Huntress, joins Robby to talk about how he worked through the hundreds of pages of data from the leak, and what he learned from them.

Cryptology is fundamental for the way the internet works today. But what exactly is modern cryptology, and what are the most common areas in which it’s being used?
To guide us through this complex area, Robby’s joined by Bor de Kock, PhD. in Cryptology and Assistant Professor at NTNU.
They talk about some of the main challenges to cryptology these days, encryption security and its limitations, and how Bor expects quantum computing to affect cryptology.

Defending EVE Online
How does combatting botting, hacking, and fraud in a virtual game relate to fighting real cybercrime?
To share his take on this, Maksym Gryshchenko joins us to share how he works as a Security analyst at CCP Games, a leading game developer based in Iceland, and the developers behind the sci-fi role-playing game EVE Online.
EVE Online is known for having an immensely complex market economy system for the game's internal industry and trade between players, and Maks explains to Robby how he and his team works to maintain the integrity of this economy and the game itself. And in the case of EVE, this means more than catching cheaters.
