A billion-dollar rivalry, a spy on the inside, and a sting operation for the history books. This isn’t a Netflix drama — it’s a real lawsuit.
In this episode, GTC dives into the explosive case of Rippling vs. Deel, where Rippling alleges Deel deployed a corporate spy in their ranks.
This case has it all and is the exact kind of story that you might not hear about if you’re outside of the cyber security industry. But with a phone being flushed down the toilet and entire building pipes dismantled to find it, trust us it’s an exceptional one.
