This week’s threat intel shows attackers using AI to scale malware and intrusions, with credential theft and internet-exposed systems as common entry points. Priority actions are to lock down management interfaces, enforce MFA, rotate secrets, and urgently patch actively exploited bugs (notably Roundcube and Cisco SD-WAN). Arkanix Stealer: Multi-Platform
Welcome to this week's Threat Intel Newsletter. This week we cover the most urgent threats where exploitation is happening fast and at scale. We start with mass exploitation of Ivanti EPMM—driven largely by a single bulletproof-hosted IP. Then we explain how trust is being abused in modern
Welcome to this week’s Threat Intel Newsletter. In this edition, the common thread is that compromise is increasingly happening through places defenders are forced to trust: edge infrastructure, virtualization layers, software update paths, and extension ecosystems. We break down China-linked targeting of Singapore’s telecom sector and leaked evidence
Welcome to this week’s Threat Intelligence Newsletter. This edition focuses on high-impact vulnerabilities and active tradecraft that shorten the path from initial access to full compromise, including multiple remote code execution (RCE) scenarios with low user interaction, and a notable software supply chain incident. We cover a one-click RCE
