Mobile phishing against company employees

Stolen employee credentials are one of the most effective ways for attackers to infiltrate a company's infrastructure. In 2022, the number of mobile phishing attacks was higher than ever. Once they have the credentials of any of the accounts in hand, it is much easier for them to bypass the security measures and gain access to sensitive data. But how do the attackers get these credentials? In many cases, the answer is mobile phishing. A global study by Lookout, The Global State of Mobile Phishing Report, found that the number of…

B2B Cyber ​​Security ShortNews

While AI offers new opportunities for efficiency, creativity and personalization of phishing lures, it is important to remember that IT security is poorly adapted to such attacks. It's a good opportunity to update the training programs to educate employees on the new technologies and trends in phishing/smishing/vishing tactics and encourage them to be more vigilant. We may see an increase in highly individual and persuasive baits on a large scale. It is now much easier and faster for cybercriminals to hire an AI to compose a message that will send a…

How ChatGPT will support cybercriminals

The OpenAI ChatGPT chatbot proves how artificial intelligence and machine learning can directly determine life and everyday life. Advanced IT users will use such tools for their purposes. And with that, unfortunately, cybercriminals too. OpenAI's ChatGPT AI model is based on unsupervised learning. With this ML approach, an AI model is fed with a large data set of unlabeled data. The vast corpus of material of books, articles and websites is based on pre-2021 sources and has no connections to the current internet. But that is already enough to learn the structures of natural language and to deceptively…

Is ChatGPT changing the future of IT security?

Open AI's ChatGPT software is making waves. With the help of AI, the chatbot answers a wide variety of questions very eloquently. So it should come as no surprise that, as is always the case with new technologies, criminals are already thinking about how to use these capabilities for their own ends. A joint study by Europol, Unicri and Trend Micro investigated this. According to these results, even better generated social engineering tools such as phishing or BEC could be considered for the Open AI software. Currently, other security researchers have also examined fraudulent emails generated with the currently hyped AI, and…

Hardware-level cyber defense as a new solution

When traditional security software alone is no longer sufficient, cyber defense must take place at the hardware level. Flexxon's X-PHY, a solid-state drive (SSD) with embedded artificial intelligence (AI), offers effective protection against cyber attacks. Security firmware and SSDs with an AI co-processor like the X-PHY can monitor cyber threats in real time, providing the last line of defense against cybercriminals. They use a machine learning algorithm that analyzes reading and writing data on the drive, along with other low-level memory commands. Thanks to its proximity to the data, the firmware ensures real-time detection of threats and…
