 This week on the Microsoft Threat Intelligence Podcast, host⁠ ⁠⁠Sherrod DeGrippo speaks with Danny Adamitis, Distinguished Engineer at Lumen Technologies’ Black Lotus Labs who break down how the Russian state-linked threat actor Forest Blizzard is exploiting home and small office routers to hijack DNS traffic, enabling large-scale surveillance and targeted credential theft. The conversation highlights how this low-cost approach scales globally, why unmanaged routers have become a critical weak point, and how tactics, from brute force to token theft to DNS hijacking continue to evolve. In this episode you’ll learn: How Forest Blizzard exploits home routers to intercept DNS traffic Why unmanaged routers are a major blind spot in modern security How tactics have evolved from brute force to token-based access Some questions we ask: What defines Forest Blizzard and how they operate? How does this impact machine-to-machine or service account security? What are the broader third-party or downstream risks?
