What if the attacker didn’t hack your company…
What if you hired them?
In this episode of IT SPARC Cast – CVE of the Week, we break down the North Korean IT worker scheme where operatives pose as remote employees to gain direct access to enterprise systems.
@loudoggeek and I cover:
• How attackers are getting hired into companies
• Why traditional security controls fail
• The risks of insider access with legitimate credentials
• How this threat bypasses perimeter defenses
• What IT and HR teams must do to stop it
If your organization hires remote workers, this is a threat you cannot ignore.
