Welcome to another episode Fraud Focus! Today, Jordan and Cambria discuss the latest in global fraud by kicking things off with a story about U.S. companies unknowingly hiring North Korean contractors. These workers, some of whom have engaged in blackmail, were hired to reduce labor costs but posed serious risks, especially to data security. Cambria reflects on how scammers have evolved from workforce scams to more complex schemes, like funneling information and funds to unauthorized groups.
Jordan emphasizes the dangers of outsourcing critical roles like cybersecurity without thoroughly vetting who has access to sensitive data. He shares that some Fortune 100 companies are learning this the hard way. They talk about the challenges of preventing identity fraud, especially as tech like deepfakes continues to improve. Cambria points out the importance of having humans alongside technology to catch things AI might miss.
They also discuss the risks of outsourcing data-sensitive tasks to unknown third-party teams and highlight how companies should set boundaries on what information contractors can access.
The podcast wraps up with a chat about trends in fraud prevention, the evolving nature of workforce scams, and Jordan’s visit to a recent user conference in New York. All in all, it’s a packed discussion full of insights on global fraud threats and data security.
