In the rapidly evolving landscape of cyber threats, few groups have made as significant an impact as ShinyHunters. Emerging in 2020, this international cyber threat group has been responsible for several high-profile data breaches, causing substantial disruptions across various sectors. The Foresiet Threat Intelligence Team has been closely monitoring ShinyHunters' activities to understand their methods, targets, and the broader implications of their actions. How Does ShinyHunters Hack?

The Cyber Helpline (TCH) has been bridging the critical gap in support for victims of cybercrime, digital fraud, and online harm in London. Thanks to MOPAC's support, The Cyber Helpline, in the first six months, was able to provide free, expert assistance to 8,789 victims in the capital.

A high-severity remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability has been found in OpenSSH’s server (CVE-2024-6387) by the research team of Qualys. This issue is especially concerning because it brings back a problem that was originally fixed in 2006, showing that one of the most popular secure software still has hidden bugs. This discovery follows another major vulnerability found in the XZ Utils library just a few months ago, highlighting ongoing security challenges.

Cybersecurity frameworks are blueprints for security programs. Typically developed by governmental organizations, industry groups, or international bodies, they take the guesswork out of developing defense strategies, providing organizations with standards, guidelines, and best practices to help them manage and reduce their cybersecurity risks.

Containerization has revolutionized application development, deployment, and management – and for good reason. The ability to automatically wrap an application and its dependencies into a single, easily deployable package helps developers focus on what they do best: writing code.

It’s impractical to operate security operations alone, using manual human processes. Finding opportunities to automate SecOps is an underlying foundation of Zero Trust and an essential architecture component for enterprise-scale SOCs. Let’s discuss what SOAR is, its common uses, and the future of SOAR with AI.

Researchers at ESET warn that malvertising campaigns are impersonating AI tools to trick users into installing malware. The Rilide infostealer, for example, is being distributed via a malicious browser extension posing as Sora or Gemini. “In the case of the malicious browser extension, it is delivered to victims who have been duped into clicking on malicious ads, typically on Facebook, that promise the services of a generative AI model,” the researchers write.

In a world where cyber espionage has become as common as a rainy day in London, the recent events surrounding the UK armed forces' payroll database have had us all raising our eyebrows higher than a butler's in a posh British drama. The plot twists in the world of cybersecurity often reminds me of a Bond film, albeit with fewer martinis and more malware.

In today’s connected world, many organizations’ “keys to the kingdom” are held in identity and access management (IAM) solutions; these play a crucial role in protecting organizations’ assets. In this post, we delve into the world of Keycloak, a popular open-source IAM solution. As part of our work at CyberArk Labs, we research open-source projects and look for security issues so we can share our findings with the open-source and security communities.

Imagine standing in your favorite ice cream parlor, gazing at myriad flavors chilling behind the counter. The choices are tantalizing, from traditional vanilla and chocolate to a swirl of the two. Ice cream flavors have evolved from these bases into cookies and cream, mint chocolate chip, Neapolitan, birthday cake, Rocky Road, butter pecan and coffee – you get the picture. Ice cream is a lot like privileged access management (PAM) solutions.
