S3 Episode 03: Cyber Crime and the Human Factor with Rutger Leukfeldt

In the second episode of our two-parter on cyber threats we focus on cybercrime. David Backovsky talks to Rutger Leukfeldt, Professor of Governing Cybercrime at Leiden University and Senior Researcher at the Netherlands Institute for the Study of Crime and Law Enforcement. We discuss everything from hackers to criminal nexuses to hacktivists, ransomware and social engineering. How cyber criminals can differ wildly, ranging from organized groups with corporate structures who provide cybercrime as a service to opportunistic cyber “street gangs”.
