In this mini-series, we will explore the implications of the Chivo Wallet hack, the vulnerabilities it exposed, and what it might say about the autocratic trajectory of the Bukele administration and perhaps a trend in so-called “Global South”.

In this final episode, Mark goes over the impact that the threat actor, CiberinteligenciaSV, still continues to have on El Salvador. He traces the group’s activities since April, discusses chilling stories of crackdowns and coverups, and asks the threat actor themselves whether or not the impact of their deeds on the public has been worth it.

Virtual Verity delves into the tech-infused realms of cyber and remote warfare, cybercrime, hacktivism, and the pervasive influence of technology in our lives. Explore the critical intersections of InfoSec, OSINT, and modern conflict with cybersecurity and conflict analyst, Mark Bruno, as he navigates the digital battleground to unveil the verities of today’s tech-centric world. — ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
