GlassWorm falls, but the repo problem is far from solved

Taking down a sprawling malware operation once signaled progress in securing the open-source ecosystem. Now, it barely registers. The GlassWorm campaign disruption comes at a moment when attackers can quickly reconstitute, and defenders are increasingly grappling with a new challenge: distinguishing real threats from automated noise. “I think coordinated actions, like GlassWorm, can sever control,…

Cisco zero-day under ongoing attack by persistent threat group

Attackers returned once again to a common target with a massive user base by exploiting a max-severity zero-day vulnerability affecting Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Controller and Manager. The threat group behind the “limited” number of attacks Cisco is aware of thus far are also linked to a series of previously disclosed vulnerabilities in the vendor’s firewalls…

Your coworker might be selling company logins, and thinks it’s fine

Employee behavior once considered unacceptable is becoming tolerated across various industries, particularly in IT and telecommunications, and at all levels of seniority, including leadership. Cifas Workplace Fraud Trends research, based on a survey of 2,000 UK employees working at companies with more than 1,000 staff, shows that employee-driven fraud, such as selling login credentials or…

FIRESIDE CHAT: Leaked secrets are now the go-to attack vector — and AI is accelerating exposures

A consequential shift is underway in how enterprise breaches begin. The leaked credential — once treated as a hygiene problem — has become the primary on-ramp. Related: No easy fixes for AI risk Last August’s Salesloft campaign was the pattern in miniature. Stolen OAuth tokens from one chatbot vendor pulled Salesforce data from 760 enterprise…

6 ways attackers abuse AI services to hack your business

Attackers are starting to exploit AI systems to mount attacks in the same way they once relied on built-in enterprise tools such as PowerShell. Instead of relying on malware, cybercriminals are increasingly abusing AI tools enterprises depend on — a trend some experts describe as living off the AI land. “We’re seeing it in things…

Hybrid resilience: Designing incident response across on-prem, cloud and SaaS without losing your mind

I used to think hybrid incidents would get easier once we standardized on “one tool”: one monitoring platform, one ticketing system, one on-call process. After a few real outages, I changed my mind. Hybrid response fails at the seams between ownership models: on-prem teams, cloud teams, security, vendors. Each group can be correct inside its…

ShinyHunters claims new campaign targeting Salesforce Experience Cloud sites

Salesforce customers have, once again, been targeted by the ShinyHunters group – or, at least, it’s what the group claims. Attackers modified and abused benign tool On Saturday, Saleforce confirmed that its security team has identified an attack campaign by unnamed malicious actors looking to access customers’ data. The attackers are not leveraging a vulnerability…

Google Workspace vs. Microsoft 365: What’s the best office suite for business?

Once upon a time, Microsoft Office ruled the business world. By the late ’90s and early 2000s, Microsoft’s office suite had brushed aside rivals such as WordPerfect Office and Lotus SmartSuite, and there was no competition on the horizon. Then in 2006 Google came along with Google Docs & Spreadsheets, a collaborative online word processing and…

A scorecard for cyber and risk culture

Have you once watched a leadership team clap for their “security culture month” like they’d landed a rover? Posters everywhere. Quizzes. A prize draw. Someone baked cupcakes with padlocks iced on top. Cute. Two weeks later, a product manager asked an engineer to “just share the admin credentials for an hour” because the vendor demo…

CVE-2026-20127: Cisco SD-WAN Zero-Day Exploited Since 2023

New day, new vulnerability in the spotlight. We’re once again seeing how quickly weaponized flaws in widely deployed platforms turn into real operational risk. Coverage of maximum-severity Cisco bugs (CVE-2025-20393, CVE-2026-20045), as well as the Dell RecoverPoint zero-day CVE-2026-22769, shows that attackers are increasingly prioritizing edge-facing infrastructure that quietly controls traffic flows, identity paths, and…

Flare Report: Infostealers Are Fueling Enterprise Identity Attacks

Once largely associated with consumer credential theft, infostealer malware is increasingly impacting enterprises.  New research from Flare shows that a rising percentage of infections now expose enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO) and identity provider credentials, creating direct risk for corporate systems, cloud environments, and SaaS platforms. “We’re seeing fewer infections overall, but far higher yield per…
