"The phishing emails, sent via SendGrid, claim to address a “security update” needed due to a supposed “data leak.” Victims are urged to verify their recovery phrases using a fake “official security verification tool.” Clicking the provided link redirects users to a fraudulent website hosted on AWS, with the domain ledger-recovery.info. Here, users are asked to enter their recovery phrases, which are then stored on the server and sent directly to the attackers. This scheme exploits the critical role of the recovery phrase in cryptocurrency security. A Ledger hardware wallet protects funds using a 24-word recovery phrase (or 12 words generated by Ledger). Possession of this phrase grants full access to the wallet, making it essential to keep it private and offline at all times." It's VERY simple. Phishing attacks are on the rise. They are more sophisticated than ever. They are highly successful. They bypass SEG's and MFA regularly. And your employees are the target!

"Crypto media outlet Cointelegraph obtained samples of attendee data that include full names, contact details, social media links, and even crypto wallet addresses—raising alarms about potential phishing campaigns.

"Thanks to header spoofing, bad actors are now able to send out fake Google Calendar invites that will fool the average user. The invites appear to be from legitimate entities and are used to steal users' personal information and credentials.  There are a few different formats that the attack can come in, but what they all have in common is a Google Calendar invite."

"FlowerStorm PhaaS shares many features previously seen in Rockstar2FA, so it is possible that operators rebranded under a new name to reduce exposure. 63% of the organizations and 84% of users targeted by FlowerStorm are based in the United States.

"Legacy industries and organizations that have been around for decades and are responsible for managing a unique blend of hardware and software across continents -- think airlines, railways, energy production, and the like -- will be a top target for ransomware attackers in 2025. These organizations move large sums of revenue, and their systems generally aren't the most modern. Also, due to the sheer size of the business, they typically have smaller IT teams in-house and employ more outside services and third-party partners to help maintain those systems. This exposes them to more methods of attack, which bad actors are increasingly taking advantage of to secure massive paydays." This article is a MUST read.
