Cyber Crime

By Scott Kessler

Scott Kessler is Co-Founder and Partner at Secure Senses Inc, a human intelligence-based cybersecurity services firm. Previously, he was a senior operations officer in the Central Intelligence Agency's National Clandestine Service, running operations in the Middle East, Europe, and the United States over a 24-year career.

Scott Kessler and Eric Rachner are the co-founders of Secure Senses Inc, which provides human intelligence-based cybersecurity services. In an interview with the Cipher Brief, they indicated that “hacking as a service” is on the rise in the Russian hacker community, and that the scale of the problem this represents for American businesses is too large for the government to address it on its own.
