Insider Trading in the Underground

Wapack Lab research has uncovered an underground forum with experienced grey and black hat hackers and coders who specialize and host an “Insider Trading” sub-forum. A variety of hackers and coders make their skills available in the various rooms. The forum claims to have a robust vetting process in place to preclude script kiddies, law enforcement, journalists, IT researchers, and “lurkers.” The Insider Trading forum claims to take advantage of talented users with expertise in advanced math, economics, quantum theories, and business entrepreneurship to facilitate insider trading.
