Power doesn’t just disappear in one big breach. It slips away in the small stuff—a patch that’s missed, a setting that’s wrong, a system no one is watching. Security usually doesn’t fail all at once; it breaks slowly, then suddenly. Staying safe isn’t about knowing everything—it’s about acting fast and clear before problems pile up.…

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a malicious package in the Python Package Index (PyPI) repository that introduces malicious behavior through a dependency that allows it to establish persistence and achieve code execution. The package, named termncolor, realizes its nefarious functionality through a dependency package called colorinal by means of a multi-stage malware operation, Zscaler
Organizations handling various forms of sensitive data or personally identifiable information (PII) require adherence to regulatory compliance standards and frameworks. These compliance standards also apply to organizations operating in regulated sectors such as healthcare, finance, government contracting, or education. Some of these standards and frameworks include, but are not limited to:
Cybersecurity researchers have detailed the inner workings of an Android banking trojan called ERMAC 3.0, uncovering serious shortcomings in the operators’ infrastructure. “The newly uncovered version 3.0 reveals a significant evolution of the malware, expanding its form injection and data theft capabilities to target more than 700 banking, shopping, and cryptocurrency applications,” Hunt.io
The threat actor known as EncryptHub is continuing to exploit a now-patched security flaw impacting Microsoft Windows to deliver malicious payloads. Trustwave SpiderLabs said it recently observed an EncryptHub campaign that brings together social engineering and the exploitation of a vulnerability in the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) framework (CVE-2025-26633, aka MSC EvilTwin) to trigger
A Chinese-speaking advanced persistent threat (APT) actor has been observed targeting web infrastructure entities in Taiwan using customized versions of open-sourced tools with an aim to establish long-term access within high-value victim environments. The activity has been attributed by Cisco Talos to an activity cluster it tracks as UAT-7237, which is believed to be active…

The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) on Thursday renewed sanctions against Russian cryptocurrency exchange platform Garantex for facilitating ransomware actors and other cybercriminals by processing more than $100 million in transactions linked to illicit activities since 2019. The Treasury said it’s also imposing sanctions on Garantex’s successor, Grinex
We used to think of privacy as a perimeter problem: about walls and locks, permissions, and policies. But in a world where artificial agents are becoming autonomous actors — interacting with data, systems, and humans without constant oversight — privacy is no longer about control. It’s about trust. And trust, by definition, is about what…

Cisco has released security updates to address a maximum-severity security flaw in Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC) Software that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on affected systems. The vulnerability, assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2025-20265 (CVSS score: 10.0), affects the RADIUS subsystem implementation that could permit an unauthenticated, remote attacker to inject
Multiple HTTP/2 implementations have been found susceptible to a new attack technique called MadeYouReset that could be explored to conduct powerful denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. “MadeYouReset bypasses the typical server-imposed limit of 100 concurrent HTTP/2 requests per TCP connection from a client. This limit is intended to mitigate DoS attacks by restricting the number of simultaneous
