The SVB incident will create some opportunities for cybercriminals. We will see phishing emails impersonating SVB or federal agencies sent to tech companies. I want you to please be aware of such scams. #siliconvalleybank #phishing

Have you ever wondered if AI language models like ChatGPT can be used to create convincing phishing emails? As it turns out, the answer is yes - with a little bit of manipulation. I recently conducted an experiment where I indirectly asked ChatGPT to gen…lnkd.in/eNykmpWQ

The FBI recently arrested one of the admins of BreachedForum, a popular platform for sharing leaked data and communicating with cybercriminals. However, it seems that the site's other admins were prepared for this eventuality, as another member has steppe…lnkd.in/dUy4ku3J

Sony reveals a data breach affecting 6,800, exploiting MOVEit's known flaw by Clop. Our 2023 research: 3,600+ victims from 60+ ransomware gangs, highlighting a gamut from aggressive new entrants to strategic seasoned players in cybercrime #SonyBreach bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/…
