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."

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
A new variant of the Konfety Android malware emerged with a malformed ZIP structure along with other obfuscation methods that allow it to evade analysis and detection. [...]
Depuis le 11 juillet 2025, de nombreux clichés récoltés par l'OSINT montrent l'impact des frappes iraniennes contre la base américaine d'Al Udeid au Qatar. Survenue dans la nuit du 23 au 24 juin 2025, cette salve de missiles balistiques était une réponse aux frappes américaines sur des installations nucléaires iraniennes.
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
Certaines escroqueries peuvent sembler incroyables, mais elles arrivent pourtant à nous attirer dans leurs filets. Benoit Grünemwald, expert en cybersécurité explique comment éviter de se faire piéger par des arnaques dont la thématique est l’emploi et utilisent la gamification. Tribune ESET – Il peut tous nous arriver de traverser une période difficile dans notre vie, […]
UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has announced a new Vulnerability Research Initiative (VRI) that aims to strengthen relations with external cybersecurity experts. [...]
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
Threat actors behind the Interlock ransomware group have unleashed a new PHP variant of its bespoke remote access trojan (RAT) as part of a widespread campaign using a variant of ClickFix called FileFix.
"Since May 2025, activity related to the Interlock RAT has been observed in connection with the LandUpdate808 (aka KongTuke) web-inject threat clusters," The DFIR Report said in a technical
In cybersecurity, precision matters—and there’s little room for error. A small mistake, missed setting, or quiet misconfiguration can quickly lead to much bigger problems. The signs we’re seeing this week highlight deeper issues behind what might look like routine incidents: outdated tools, slow response to risks, and the ongoing gap between compliance and real security.
For anyone responsible
Hackers have adopted the new technique called 'FileFix' in Interlock ransomware attacks to drop a remote access trojan (RAT) on targeted systems. [...]
Dozens of Gigabyte motherboard models run on UEFI firmware vulnerable to security issues that allow planting bootkit malware that is invisible to the operating system and can survive reinstalls. [...]
A fake extension for the Cursor AI IDE code editor infected devices with remote access tools and infostealers, which, in one case, led to the theft of $500,000 in cryptocurrency from a Russian crypto developer. [...]
India's Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has announced that it has taken steps to dismantle what it said was a transnational cybercrime syndicate that carried out "sophisticated" tech support scams targeting citizens of Australia and the United Kingdom.
The fraudulent scheme is estimated to have led to losses worth more than £390,000 ($525,000) in the United Kingdom alone.
The law
Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new hacking technique that exploits weaknesses in the eSIM technology used in modern smartphones, exposing users to severe risks.
The issues impact the Kigen eUICC card. According to the Irish company's website, more than two billion SIMs in IoT devices have been enabled as of December 2020.
The findings come from Security Explorations, a research lab
The search feature for the Windows 10 emoji panel is broken after installing the KB5062554 cumulative update released Tuesday, making it not possible to look up emojis by name or keyword. [...]
