A breach is not only a security issue. It is an operations issue. #IBM puts the average at $4.4M. The practical lesson for 2026 is to automate the basics: identity hygiene, alert triage, and response runbooks so teams contain faster and spend less.

New analysis reveals a Silver Fox operation using a fake Microsoft Teams installer to deploy ValleyRAT in attacks targeting China-based users.

The campaign mixes SEO poisoning, Cyrillic false-flag elements, DLL injection, and BYOVD techniques - making detection and attribution more challenging.

Researchers also note a secondary chain using a trojanized Telegram installer.

What’s your perspective on increased abuse of trusted-app installers in malware campaigns?

"The Breaking Point: Why Cybersecurity and SOC Professionals Are Burning Out—And What Actually Works"

Nearly half of cybersecurity professionals experience moderate to severe burnout. 65% of SOC analysts have seriously considered leaving. But here's the thing: it's not a resilience problem. It's a design problem.

I've written a comprehensive breakdown of:

✓ Why the 10,000+ daily alerts trap is unsustainable
✓ How 24/7 shifts destroy sleep and performance
✓ Why compensation alone won't fix retention
✓ Practical solutions: fatigue management, alert rationalization, career paths, and organizational culture

This isn't about yoga classes and "self-care." It's about fixing the structural issues that burn through talent faster than the industry can train replacements.

Researchers have documented a remote-worker infiltration workflow linked to the Lazarus APT by observing operators live inside ANY.RUN sandboxed “developer laptops.”

The sessions revealed identity-driven tooling, AI-assisted interviews, Chrome profile syncing, OTP utilities, and remote desktop access - all without traditional malware deployment.

How should defenders adapt hiring-related threat models to account for identity takeover and remote access–driven APT tradecraft?

DoorDash has confirmed a data breach following a targeted social engineering attack against an employee. The incident exposed non-financial personal data (names, emails, phone numbers, addresses), with no payment or government ID data affected.

Full report:
https://www.technadu.com/doordash-discloses-october-data-breach-from-social-engineering-scam-starts-notifying-users/613842/

DoorDash notified users, involved law enforcement, and strengthened internal controls. Social engineering remains the dominant vector across 2025 incidents — consistent with recent Extortion-as-a-Service trends.

DOJ announces new actions targeting illicit DPRK-linked schemes, including identity fraud enabling remote IT work at 136+ U.S. companies and APT38 crypto heists exceeding $15M.

Key elements:
• Multiple guilty pleas (U.S. & international)
• Unauthorized remote access + identity misuse
• Cryptocurrency laundering + ongoing seizure efforts
• DOJ, FBI & NSD coordination under DPRK RevGen initiative

AI is becoming central to security operations. Let's talk about why. 👇

AI-assisted workflows are on the rise. ⬆️ And, when an algorithm highlights a critical #security event, analysts need to understand why that happened. Without true visibility, this #AI assistance risks creating new blind spots and hiding important context, rather than leading to a solution. 😓

To make sense of the constant overflow of alerts, you need AI capabilities that are built into workflows that you already use, like:
☑️ Behavioral detection
☑️ Risk-based prioritization
☑️ Investigation summaries
☑️ Smarter dashboards and search

Learn how you can leverage these important AI capabilities and stay in control while using tools that accelerate detection, streamline investigations, and strengthen your reporting: https://graylog.org/post/how-graylog-uses-explainable-ai-to-help-security-teams/ #cybersecurity #securityops #security #securityanalyst

🚨 SonicWall VPN Alert
Huntress has reported a widespread compromise impacting over 100 accounts across 16 organizations. Attackers used valid credentials to gain access, some performing lateral movement and reconnaissance - possibly linked to Akira ransomware operations.

💬 How does your team mitigate credential-based VPN attacks? Comment below & follow @technadu for actionable threat intelligence.

175 malicious npm packages + unpkg CDN used as resilient phishing infrastructure (26k downloads).

Attack strategy: automated package publishing → CDN-served JS redirects with victim email fragments → pre-filled credential harvesters. This is a hosting-abuse supply-chain tactic (registry+CDN), not a typical dependency compromise.

Immediate defensive steps:
• Monitor npm publish frequency and automation patterns.
• Alert on unpkg asset requests tied to newly published/empty package manifests.
• Treat HTML attachments as high risk; validate source and block local file URIs in email clients.
