Threat Alert: What to Watch For Cybercriminals are increasingly using phishing-as-a-service kits to build and distribute lookalike Microsoft Office 365 landing pages via phishing lures.  The phishing lures can be customized to have a variety of different appearances or themes.

Threat Alert: What to Watch For Attackers have launched a series of phishing attacks impersonating reputable secure share providers, which are used for securely sharing files.  The lures contain links or attachments containing the supposed document.  Interacting with the link or attachment leads to the installation of credential harvesting malicious software (malware). 

Threat Alert: What to Watch For Cybercriminals have launched a campaign distributing malware with an AI-themed lure.   The lure purports to be from an “Information Technology Manager” regarding a mandatory system update for employees.  The email body directs recipients as to how they can download the new AI-powered software.
