As another wave of ransomware attacks hits prominent UK organisations, I am again returning to @alexmartin.bsky.social's piece from last summer about why ransomware/cyber security doesn't cut through politically. I think @tcstvns.bsky.social nailed it on the head therecord.media/uk-election-...

I am deeply saddened to report the passing of Brandon Valeriano (@drbvaler.bsky.social). Brandon was a trailblazer in evidence-based cybersecurity in International Relations. I will miss his insight, intellectual curiosity, friendship and dinner invites. RIP, brother.

When Arquilla & Ronfeldt started talking about 'strategic crime' in the 90s, we should have paid more attention. Recent articulation by John: fortune.com/2021/09/09/r...
John Arquilla: The best way to protect against 'strategic' cybercrime? Keep moving your data
Commentary: the best way to protect your data may—counterintuitively—be to put it in the cloud.

Reports citing anonymous intel officials have suggested Western authorities assess the recent spate of cable breakages in the Baltic Sea to be accidents rather than acts of sabotage, but some onlookers are arguing the nature of the incidents & their repeat occurrence indicate a pattern of behavior.
Questions grow over whether Baltic Sea cable damage was sabotage or accidental
Two recent news reports cast doubt on whether undersea cable damage by the oil tanker Eagle S was actually intentional. Experts are pushing back on those latest assessments.

With attacks on everything from hospitals to strategic ports, #ransomware is a growing national security threat, not just a financial issue. Despite this, the subject is neglected by cyber conflict research. Read more from Sara Seppanen and @jamiemaccoll.bsky.social: bindinghook.com/articles-bin...
The Forgotten War: Ransomware and Cyber Conflict Studies
Scholars of cyber conflict have largely ignored the rise of ransomware as a national security threat. Counter-ransomware strategies would benefit from further interrogation from this community
