A threat activity cluster has been observed targeting fully-patched end-of-life SonicWall Secure Mobile Access (SMA) 100 series appliances as part of a campaign designed to drop a backdoor called OVERSTEP.
The malicious activity, dating back to at least October 2024, has been attributed by the Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) to a group it tracks as UNC6148.
The tech giant assessed with

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed what they say is a “critical design flaw” in delegated Managed Service Accounts (dMSAs) introduced in Windows Server 2025.
“The flaw can result in high-impact attacks, enabling cross-domain lateral movement and persistent access to all managed service accounts and their resources across Active Directory indefinitely,” Semperis said in a report shared with

The AI gold rush is on. But without identity-first security, every deployment becomes an open door. Most organizations secure native AI like a web app, but it behaves more like a junior employee with root access and no manager.
From Hype to High Stakes
Generative AI has moved beyond the hype cycle. Enterprises are:

Deploying LLM copilots to accelerate software development
Automating customer

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new, sophisticated variant of a known Android malware referred to as Konfety that leverages the evil twin technique to enable ad fraud.
The sneaky approach essentially involves a scenario wherein two variants of an application share the same package name: A benign “decoy” app that’s hosted on the Google Play Store and its evil twin, which is

Social engineering attacks have entered a new era—and they’re coming fast, smart, and deeply personalized.
It’s no longer just suspicious emails in your spam folder. Today’s attackers use generative AI, stolen branding assets, and deepfake tools to mimic your executives, hijack your social channels, and create convincing fakes of your website, emails, and even voice. They don’t just spoof—they

Governmental organizations in Southeast Asia are the target of a new campaign that aims to collect sensitive information by means of a previously undocumented Windows backdoor dubbed HazyBeacon.
The activity is being tracked by Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 under the moniker CL-STA-1020, where “CL” stands for “cluster” and “STA” refers to “state-backed motivation.”
“The threat actors behind this

AI agents promise to automate everything from financial reconciliations to incident response. Yet every time an AI agent spins up a workflow, it has to authenticate somewhere; often with a high-privilege API key, OAuth token, or service account that defenders can’t easily see. These “invisible” non-human identities (NHIs) now outnumber human accounts in most cloud environments, and they have

Cybersecurity researchers have charted the evolution of a widely used remote access trojan called AsyncRAT, which was first released on GitHub in January 2019 and has since served as the foundation for several other variants.
“AsyncRAT has cemented its place as a cornerstone of modern malware and as a pervasive threat that has evolved into a sprawling network of forks and variants,” ESET

The North Korean threat actors linked to the Contagious Interview campaign have been observed publishing another set of 67 malicious packages to the npm registry, underscoring ongoing attempts to poison the open-source ecosystem via software supply chain attacks.
The packages, per Socket, have attracted more than 17,000 downloads, and incorporate a previously undocumented version of a malware

While phishing and ransomware dominate headlines, another critical risk quietly persists across most enterprises: exposed Git repositories leaking sensitive data. A risk that silently creates shadow access into core systems
Git is the backbone of modern software development, hosting millions of repositories and serving thousands of organizations worldwide. Yet, amid the daily hustle of shipping
