The cybersecurity landscape is rapidly evolving, and the latest wave of attacks illustrates just how critical and vulnerable our development environments have become. A massive campaign involving more than 4,800 IP addresses has recently been uncovered, with cybercriminals targeting misconfigured Git directories—specifically the .git/config files commonly found in software development setups.

The digital threat landscape in 2025 is becoming increasingly hostile. Among the most alarming developments is the 400% surge in PureRAT activity—an aggressive comeback of a once under-the-radar Remote Access Trojan (RAT). According to aggregated data from global threat intelligence firms and Digialert's internal telemetry, PureRAT infections have skyrocketed, signaling a new wave of cyberattacks that businesses cannot afford to ignore.

A new breed of cyber attackers—led by a threat group known as Hazy Hawk—is capitalizing on these misconfigurations to redirect users to scam sites, phishing pages, and malware. The attack method is deceptively simple, but the impact can be devastating—especially when trusted domains belonging to governments, enterprises, and academic institutions are weaponized against the public.

In today’s hyper-connected digital ecosystem, businesses are more agile, innovative, and efficient than ever before. But this evolution comes at a steep price: supply chain cyberattacks are escalating in both frequency and sophistication. The very tools and vendors you trust to run your business could be the entry point for malicious actors.

In the relentless race to innovate, build, and deploy faster, security is often left trailing behind. The drive for digital transformation, cloud-native applications, and agile workflows is pushing organizations to move at breakneck speed. But while development timelines have shrunk, the attack surface has expanded—and attackers aren’t waiting for your SOC team to catch up

The cyber threat landscape never sleeps—and neither do the adversaries behind it. In an era where most botnets are Linux-based and heavily target IoT devices, a new breed of malware has emerged, shifting the paradigm of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. Known as HTTPBot, this new Windows-based botnet is engineered with precision and built to disrupt operations where it hurts most: in high-value, real-time digital interfaces. 

In today's hyperconnected world, most of our digital infrastructure—whether in the cloud, at the edge, or on-premises—is powered by processors from one dominant player: Intel. From powering enterprise-grade servers that host mission-critical applications to the laptops we carry daily, Intel's CPUs form the backbone of global computing. 

In the age of AI, data is gold—but it’s also a deeply personal resource. The debate over how that data is gathered and used has reached a boiling point with Meta’s latest move.
In a controversial shift, Meta has announced plans to use public content from Facebook and Instagram users across Europe to train its generative AI models. But there’s one glaring issue: they’re not asking for prior user consent.

In an urgent reminder of the ever-evolving cybersecurity threat landscape, Samsung has issued an emergency security update to address CVE-2025-4632, a critical zero-day vulnerability actively exploited in the wild. This isn't a routine patch—it’s a significant alert for enterprises, CISOs, and mobile users worldwide. Over 2 billion Samsung devices are potentially exposed, raising an immediate and critical question

Cybersecurity professionals have long warned that the biggest threats to enterprise security are not necessarily the most complex. Often, it's the unpatched, overlooked, or misunderstood vulnerabilities that open the door to devastating breaches. This truth was once again proven with the discovery of CVE-2025-32756, a critical zero-day vulnerability affecting Fortinet’s FortiOS, the backbone of its widely deployed firewall and networking solutions.
