Cybersecurity never stops—and neither do hackers. While you wrapped up last week, new attacks were already underway. From hidden software bugs to massive DDoS attacks and new ransomware tricks, this week's roundup gives you the biggest security moves to know. Whether you're protecting key systems or locking down cloud apps, these are the updates you need before making your next security decision. Take a quick look to start your week informed and one step ahead. ⚡ Threat of the Week Cisco 0-Day Flaws Under Attack — Cybersecurity agencies warned that threat actors have exploited two security flaws affecting Cisco firewalls as part of zero-day attacks to deliver previously undocumented malware families like RayInitiator and LINE VIPER. The RayInitiator and LINE VIPER malware represent a significant evolution on that used in the previous campaign, both in sophistication and its ability to evade detection. The activity involves the exploitation of CVE-2025-20362 (CVSS score: 6.5) a...

Can a harmless click really lead to a full-blown cyberattack? Surprisingly, yes — and that's exactly what we saw in last week's activity. Hackers are getting better at hiding inside everyday actions: opening a file, running a project, or logging in like normal. No loud alerts. No obvious red flags. Just quiet entry through small gaps — like a misconfigured pipeline, a trusted browser feature, or reused login tokens. These aren't just tech issues — they're habits being exploited. Let's walk through the biggest updates from the week and what they mean for your security. ⚡ Threat of the Week Recently Patched Windows Flaw Comes Under Active Exploitation — A recently patched security flaw affecting Windows NTLM has been exploited by malicious actors to leak NTLM hashes or user passwords and infiltrate systems since March 19, 2025. The flaw, CVE-2025-24054 (CVSS score: 6.5), is a hash disclosure spoofing bug that was fixed by Microsoft last month as part of its Patch Tuesday updates...

As the digital world becomes more complicated, the lines between national security and cybersecurity are starting to fade. Recent cyber sanctions and intelligence moves show a reality where malware and fake news are used as tools in global politics. Every cyberattack now seems to have deeper political consequences. Governments are facing new, unpredictable threats that can't be fought with old-school methods. To stay ahead, we need to understand how cybersecurity is now tied to diplomacy, where the safety of networks is just as important as the power of words. ⚡ Threat of the Week U.S. Treasury Sanctions Chinese and North Korean Entities — The U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) leveled sanctions against a Chinese cybersecurity company (Sichuan Juxinhe Network Technology Co., LTD.) and a Shanghai-based cyber actor (Yin Kecheng) over their alleged links to Salt Typhoon and Silk Typhoon threat clusters. Kecheng was associated with the breach of...

Phishing attacks remain a huge challenge for organizations in 2025. In fact, with attackers increasingly leveraging identity-based techniques over software exploits, phishing arguably poses a bigger threat than ever before.  Attackers are increasingly leveraging identity-based techniques over software exploits, with phishing and stolen credentials (a byproduct of phishing) now the primary cause of breaches. Source: Verizon DBIR Attackers are increasingly leveraging identity-based techniques over software exploits, with phishing and stolen credentials (a byproduct of phishing) now the primary cause of breaches. Source: Verizon DBIR Attackers are turning to identity attacks like phishing because they can achieve all of the same objectives as they would in a traditional endpoint or network attack, simply by logging into a victim's account. And with organizations now using hundreds of internet apps across their workforce, the scope of accounts that can be phished or targeted with s...
