ThreatMap Part 3: From data and information to intelligence

Introduction In Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI), we often use certain words interchangeably. That might feel harmless, but it can blur what we’re actually doing – and sometimes even cause misunderstandings that could lead to bigger problems. One of the most common examples is the mix-up between data, information, and intelligence. These are three very different

Autonomous Threat Hunting and the role of artificial intelligence (AI)

Introduction The escalating complexity and frequency of cyber threats necessitate a more proactive stance in cybersecurity defense mechanisms. The dynamic nature of cyber threats requires continuous monitoring and analysis, a task that surpasses human capabilities alone. Crucial aspect motivating the adoption of autonomous threat hunting is the imperative need to minimize response times in cyber

Critical vulnerability in React Server Components

A working proof of concept (PoC) code is available for the React2Shell vulnerability and active exploitation by several Chinese-nexus threat groups have been observed. More exploitation across the board is expected as all types of attackers seek to capitalize on this vulnerability.  Patching of the vulnerability must be a priority. Cloud environments such as Akamai,

Hacktivism today: What three years of research reveal about its transformation

Overview When we published our findings on Hacktivism: Victims and Impact in 2023 in our Security Navigator 2024, hacktivism was already undergoing a visible resurgence. At the time, most of the incidents we observed were not technically destructive at scale in the conventional sense. What stood out were the broader structural trends emerging across the threat landscape. Hacktivism was becoming more frequent, more coordinated, and increasingly entangled with real-world

The factory floor under fire: why Operational Technology (OT) is the ultimate target for hackers

The days of the traditional air gap are officially over. We used to think of Operational Technology as completely separate from our everyday office computers, consisting mostly of the specialized systems that control pumps and robotic arms. But today, everything is connected. While this digital shift has brought amazing efficiency to the industry, it has

The invisible kill switch: Why operational technology (OT) is the new ground zero for cyber extortion

For decades, the factory floor was a fortress of physical isolation. Today, that traditional “air gap” has been replaced by a sprawling digital web. As organizations race to embrace the efficiency and automation of modern industry, they are bridging the gap between Operational Technology (OT) and traditional Information Technology (IT). While this convergence has unlocked
