💥 FLASH NOTICE 💥 Independent cybersecurity researchers have recently uncovered an ongoing malware campaign abusing Meta’s advertising platform to distribute an information stealer known as SYS01stealer. Unlike ransomware, SYS01stealer’s goal is to steal login credentials, browsing history, and cookies to either set conditions for a more damaging attack in the future, or to sell directly via dark-web forums.

Our Mexico Office is decorated and ready for Day of the Dead, aka Día de los Muertos! 💀💜 Día de los Muertos is a holiday celebrated to honor deceased loved ones and remember them with joy. It is 7-day cycle, starting October 27th, but is traditionally celebrated on November 1st and 2nd. To celebrate, our Mexico team shared Pan de Muerto, which means "Bread of the Dead." It is a traditional bread that symbolizes the cycle of life and death, and is always included in Ofrendas or "offerings" as a way to honor those who have passed and so they can have a taste of what they used to love to eat. We're grateful to learn more about the holiday and share these traditions with our teammates in Mexico. Feliz día de muertos!
