A sprawling operation undertaken by global law enforcement agencies and a consortium of private sector firms has disrupted the online infrastructure associated with a commodity information stealer known as Lumma (aka LummaC or LummaC2), seizing 2,300 domains that acted as the command-and-control (C2) backbone to commandeer infected Windows systems.
“Malware like LummaC2 is deployed to steal
In this week’s episode, Graham investigates the mysterious Iberian Peninsula blackout (aliens? toaster? cyberattack?), Carole dives in the UK legal aid hack that exposed deeply personal data of society’s most vulnerable, and Dinah Davis recounts how Instagram scammers hijacked her daughter’s account – and how a parental control accidentally saved the day.
Russian cyber threat actors have been attributed to a state-sponsored campaign targeting Western logistics entities and technology companies since 2022.
The activity has been assessed to be orchestrated by APT28 (aka BlueDelta, Fancy Bear, or Forest Blizzard), which is linked to the Russian General Staff Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU) 85th Main Special Service Center, Military Unit 26165.
Russian organizations have become the target of a phishing campaign that distributes malware called PureRAT, according to new findings from Kaspersky.
“The campaign aimed at Russian business began back in March 2023, but in the first third of 2025 the number of attacks quadrupled compared to the same period in 2024,” the cybersecurity vendor said.
The attack chains, which have not been
Counterfeit Facebook pages and sponsored ads on the social media platform are being employed to direct users to fake websites masquerading as Kling AI with the goal of tricking victims into downloading malware.
Kling AI is an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered platform to synthesize images and videos from text and image prompts. Launched in June 2024, it’s developed by Kuaishou Technology,
Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery/Deployment (CI/CD) refers to practices that automate how code is developed and released to different environments. CI/CD pipelines are fundamental in modern software development, ensuring code is consistently tested, built, and deployed quickly and efficiently.
While CI/CD automation accelerates software delivery, it can also introduce security
It takes just one email to compromise an entire system. A single well-crafted message can bypass filters, trick employees, and give attackers the access they need. Left undetected, these threats can lead to credential theft, unauthorized access, and even full-scale breaches. As phishing techniques become more evasive, they can no longer be reliably caught by automated solutions alone.
Let’s take
Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new campaign that employs malicious JavaScript injections to redirect site visitors on mobile devices to a Chinese adult-content Progressive Web App (PWA) scam.
“While the payload itself is nothing new (yet another adult gambling scam), the delivery method stands out,” c/side researcher Himanshu Anand said in a Tuesday analysis.
“The malicious landing
Google has announced a new feature in its Chrome browser that lets its built-in Password Manager automatically change a user’s password when it detects the credentials to be compromised.
“When Chrome detects a compromised password during sign in, Google Password Manager prompts the user with an option to fix it automatically,” Google’s Ashima Arora, Chirag Desai, and Eiji Kitamura said. “On
KrebsOnSecurity last week was hit by a near record distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack that clocked in at more than 6.3 terabits of data per second (a terabit is one trillion bits of data). The brief attack appears to have been a test run for a massive new Internet of Things (IoT) botnet capable of launching crippling digital assaults that few web destinations can withstand. Read on for more about the botnet, the attack, and the apparent creator of this global menace.
