Risky Biz Soap Box: BEC actors embrace LLMs to attack Japan
This Soap Box edition of the podcast is sponsored by Proofpoint.
Proofpoint offers email security and DLP products and services, and they’re probably best known for being the biggest email security company on the planet.
That means they process a LOT of emails in the hopes of throttling the number of malicious emails that organisations have to deal with, whether that’s malware, phishing or BEC.

Now that the initial ChatGPT hype has died off a little, we spoke with Proofpoint’s VP of cybersecurity strategy Ryan Kalember about large language models and how they’re going to help defenders and attackers alike.
