🚨Global Outage Alert 🚨 Today’s global outage involving CrowdStrike and Microsoft’s Azure platform has severely disrupted various industries. Such high-profile outages present lucrative opportunities for cybercriminals, and we’re already seeing threat actors capitalizing on this event by spinning up new domains and crafting phishing schemes. Credit to @JCyberSec_ on X on being proactive and finding specific key threats to watch: Malware Disguised as Fixes - Be cautious of any unsolicited emails or messages offering software updates or fixes for the CrowdStrike outage. These could contain malware aimed at compromising your systems. Phishing Pages - Verify the authenticity of any webpage claiming to provide solutions or updates related to the outage. Phishing sites are often created to mimic legitimate ones, intending to steal sensitive information. Doppel Recommends a Few Best Practices So You Can Stay Safe: - Verify Sources: Always cross-check URLs and email addresses. Official communications will come from recognized domains. - Update Security Protocols: Ensure your cybersecurity measures are up-to-date. This includes antivirus software, firewalls, and intrusion detection systems. - Educate Your Team: Conduct regular training sessions on identifying phishing attempts and handling suspicious communications. Staying alert and implementing these practices can significantly reduce the risk of falling victim to these opportunistic cyber threats during such outages . Image credit @JCyberSec_ on X

🚨 New Cybersecurity Advisory Alert! 🚨 The FBI and several international partner enforcement agencies have identified a covert artificial intelligence tool, Meliorator, used by Russian state-sponsored actors to conduct disinformation campaigns on social media. Here's what you need to know: What is Meliorator? - It's an AI-enhanced software used to create fake social media personas to spread disinformation. Meliorator is currently deployed on X; however, its developers plan to expand deployment to Facebook and Instagram. Capabilities Include: - Generating realistic social media accounts en masse. - Replicating and perpetuation disinformation produced by other bots. - Automating posts, likes, and shares to amplify false narratives. Impact: - This tool manipulates public opinion, targeting multiple countries including the US, Germany, and Ukraine. - These disinformation campaigns can influence public perception and disrupt essential democratic processes. Malicious actors are always finding innovative ways to further their criminal intentions. While AI packages like Meliorator aim at affecting our democracy, companies and their executives are always at risk from bot accounts spreading disinformation and damaging their brand.
