As if the attention surrounding the upcoming U.S. presidential elections is not enough, the WhoisXML API research team may have unveiled thousands of potential sources of disarray -- election-related cybersquatting domains. These domains may be a lucrative source of income for some people. Case in point?
Fortinet recently discovered a Meduza Stealer variant that has been taking advantage of the Microsoft Windows SmartScreen vulnerability CVE-2024-21412. The Meduza stealer lets remote attackers bypass the SmartScreen security warning dialog to deliver malicious files.
The WhoisXML API research team analyzed more than 7.3 million domains registered between 1 and 31 July 2024 in this post to identify five of the most popular registrars, top-level domain (TLD) extensions, and other global domain registration trends.
Cyber espionage is not uncommon and often occurs between rivals. And though the cyber attackers' tactics and techniques remain the same, their tools do not.
The Zscaler ThreatLabz 2024 Phishing Report named Microsoft, OneDrive, Okta, Adobe, SharePoint, Telegram, pCloud, Facebook, DHL, WhatsApp, ANZ Banking Group, Amazon, Ebay, Instagram, Google, Sparkasse Bank, FedEx, PayU, Rakuten, and Gucci as the 20 most phished brands.
Advanced persistent threat (APT) groups will employ any means necessary to compromise the networks of their intended targets. And for Cosmic Leopard, that means using GravityRAT, an Android-based malware, and HeavyLift, a Windows-based malware loader, in their most recent operation Cisco Talos has dubbed "Operation Celestial Force."
Our research team analyzed more than 21.5 million domains registered between 1 April and 30 June 2024, as seen in the Newly Registered Domains (NRDs) Data Feed.
Keonne Rodriguez and William Lonergan Hill, founders of Samourai Wallet, a cryptocurrency mixing service, were sentenced in April 2024 and their sites taken down for executing more than US$2 billion in unlawful transactions and laundering more than US$100 million in criminal proceeds.
Phishing is and remains a top threat. Google alone blocks around 100 million phishing emails daily, and it doesn't help that phishers get extra help from phishing kits -- ready-made cybercrime tools that allow even cybercriminal newbies to launch attacks following a few simple steps.
Threat researcher Dancho Danchev recently uncovered 130 domains that seemingly belong to fake cryptocurrency sellers. The WhoisXML API research team sought to find potential connections to the threat by expanding the current list of indicators of compromise (IoCs) using our vast array of DNS intelligence sources.
