How's this for a conundrum? You spend several months of your life trying to uncover the real-life identity of perhaps one of the older and most experienced ransomware access brokers out there. And when you do find this person, you discover they are now (also?) serving in a very important technical role for the Ukrainian military that involves successfully targeting and killing large numbers of Russian invaders.
I'm not sure the timing is right for this person's story, but it's a good one.
