This one’s for you, Mom
Summary: This Cisco Talos Threat Source newsletter opens with a personal essay on the author's mother and International Women's Day, then covers the March 10 Talos blog update on cyber threats tied to the Middle East conflict, where hundreds of attacks have been claimed by numerous collectives. It also notes Dutch agencies warning that Russian state actors used phishing and social engineering, not malware, to take over Signal and WhatsApp accounts, and that TriZetto confirmed a year-long hack exposing records on 3.4 million people.
What you should know: Talos cautions that the hundreds of claimed hacktivist attacks should not be taken at face value and that destructive malware and DDoS activity against one country can spill over to organizations in others, so a security leader's exposure may not follow the conflict map.
