Session

Odysee in Cyberspace – Cases from the Interweb

In this talk I will give you some insights into our work at the NCSC and the cyber threat landscape in Switzerland by presenting two real-world cases that we have handled this year.

In the first part, I will show how a suspected nation state threat actor used an Open-Relay-Box (ORB) network in Switzerland to attack an NGO in Switzerland. In the second part, I will shed some light into suspected DPRK activities that are targeting employees of Swiss Crypto Firms with fake job offers.

Both cases will be covered from A to Z. That is from the notification of the incident, to the handling of the issue, the documentation and finally to the sharing of information with our stakeholders and partners within our network in Switzerland and abroad.
