Most ransomware attacks do not begin with sophisticated exploits, zero-day vulnerabilities, or highly advanced malware.They start with a single action that appears completely legitimate – a click, an approval, or a login to a familiar account. In many cases, it is phishing.An email that looks internal. A Teams message that seems to come from a…

Organizations often receive dozens or even hundreds of security alerts daily. Many of these are labeled “low risk” or “informational,” and it can be tempting for teams to ignore them in favor of higher-priority incidents. But minor alerts are not always harmless. In some cases, what seems small at first can escalate into significant operational,…

In recent years, ransomware attacks have become a familiar threat, but in recent months a particularly dangerous pattern has become clearer: attacks aimed at one organization that end up impacting dozens or even hundreds of other companies through an external supplier. Instead of attempting to directly breach large, well-protected companies, attackers are increasingly targeting software…

For years, Security Operations Centers were built around one core mission: detect alerts, investigate them, and respond as quickly as possible. Speed mattered more than context, and volume often dictated priorities. Today, that model is no longer enough. Modern SOC teams operate in an environment where attacks are continuous, automated, and increasingly tailored. An alert…

August 2025 delivered a sharp reminder that even organizations with advanced security infrastructures are not immune to phishing and social engineering. Two separate attacks, one involving Salesforce and the other targeting Cisco, led to data exposure and once again underscored that the human factor remains a primary target for attackers. On August 6, a large…

A few days after a large scale phishing related incident affected the United Kingdom online tax services, it is already clear that this was not just another technical security issue. It is a concrete example of how phishing can lead to major financial and operational damage, even without a classic system breach. On June 4,…

For many organizations, security strategy is still built around laptops, corporate networks, and cloud systems. That is where most controls are deployed, most budgets are spent, and most dashboards are focused. But daily work has quietly shifted. Employees now approve requests, open links, read messages, and share files from their phones. SMS, WhatsApp, Teams, Slack,…

In June 2025, it was revealed that approximately 6.5 million LinkedIn user passwords were shared on dark web forums. This was not a breach of a single system, but a clear example of how information stolen in one place quickly becomes a tool for much broader attacks. When passwords are leaked, they do not remain…

Organizations invest significant resources in employee training, phishing simulations, and security awareness programs. This is important, but it is no longer sufficient. Modern phishing does not rely only on human mistakes. It exploits workload pressure, automation, legitimate enterprise tools, and techniques that appear credible even to experienced employees. Reality shows that even in organizations with…
