About this listen

This week we are joined by Marcelle Lee, cybersecurity consultant and researcher, discussing "CTI tradecraft: Investigating a mobile scareware campaign." She details how a routine click on a Google News story led to a mobile scareware pop-up—and a deeper investigation into a broader campaign. Using free tools like Censys, URLScan, VirusTotal, and CyberChef, she pivoted from two domains to uncover more than 100 related domains, shared infrastructure, and links to questionable antivirus apps in the Google Play Store. The findings are mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, showing how freely available resources can power meaningful, actionable threat intelligence.
