In this case, the targets, still under the umbrella of Meta, are Instagram users. This theme is not new, and we have seen it from time to time over the last year. It’s the same copyright infringement trickery again, but this time, the attackers gain more personal information from their victims and use evasion techniques to hide phishing URLs.
Having the most advanced, artificially intelligent-featured security software certainly makes a company “sound” secure, and in fact, those defenses do help stop most advanced attacks. But not all attacks involve complicated ransomware, spearfishing, or DDoS attacks. What organizations have to remember is their computer network is only one threat vector they have to worry about.
