More than 500 cybersecurity experts put their heads together in the fight against current cyberthreats
Yesterday, the Centre for Cybersecurity Belgium held its Quarterly Cyber Threat Report Event (QCTR) - 2021-Q2. QCTR is a quarterly event that features renowned cybersecurity experts discussing the most important cyber threats of the moment. This is the 4th time that the CCB has organised a QCTR. The event has grown to be the largest of its kind in Belgium. Today's edition attracted 900 interested parties from 55 different countries. On average, there were 500 experts simultaneously in the online meeting.
It is our belief that information sharing is an important weapon in the fight against cybercrime. Not surprisingly, the increasing threat of ransomware was on the agenda. In addition, insights were shared about Hafnium and mobile malware as Flubot or the banking trojan Teabot.
What happens in the Dark doesn’t have to stay in the Dark
Experts from Recorded Future, Group-IB, Kaspersky and Intel 471, Inc. gave a glimpse of the dark web. What are cybercriminals looking for on the dark web? What is being traded there? How do they proceed and what logic do they follow? Do they talk about you there too?

At the last minute, we were able to invite Ronan Kirby, President & General Manager EMEA at Kaseya to give a first-hand explanation.
