How to Detect Phishing Before It Happens: Moving Beyond User Awareness

Apr 24, 2026 By Ezra M. In Memcyco
By the time a phishing email lands in an inbox, the attacker’s infrastructure has already been live for hours. That’s not a hypothetical. Zimperium’s 2024 research found that 60% of newly created phishing domains receive a TLS certificate within the first two hours of registration. The site is credentialed, hosted, and ready before most security teams have any signal it exists.

How to stop fraud and cyberattacks from becoming liquidity ordeals

Apr 23, 2026 By Joe Kitos In INETCO
When it comes to real-time payments, fraud moves fast — but liquidity stress can move even faster. A fraud or cyberattack can quickly become a liquidity event when it disrupts settlement funds, triggers abnormal transaction flows or forces payment services offline.

How to Detect Man-in-the-Middle Attacks: Indicators, Methods, and Detection Gaps

Apr 17, 2026 By Ezra M. In Memcyco

Why QR Code Phishing Is the New 2026 Security Blind Spot

Apr 17, 2026 By Acronis In Acronis
QR code phishing is a social engineering attack that embeds malicious URLs inside QR code images delivered through email. Because the payload lives inside an image — not in a clickable link or plain text — legacy secure email gateways (SEGs) never see it. The email passes inspection. The user scans the code with their phone. And the attack moves from a protected corporate desktop to an unmanaged mobile device outside your security perimeter.
