I just create my first video with Video GPT by VEED @veedstudio - https://t.co/pkImHDc52d

It is awesome!

Updates will be mandatory if you want confidence in your company's #cybersecurity. #VMware and cybersecurity authorities are warning companies to update #ESXi hypervisors amid a widespread #ransomware attack.

The UK's #RoyalMail is facing a threat from #ransomware group #LockBit. British #postalandparcelfirm was still cleaning up the mess from a #cyberincident last month.

Just because a #ransomwaregang isn’t targeting you now doesn’t mean they won’t change their capabilities and come after you later!

Well, #malvertising at its finest is the trend we are seeing now. This means there are many phony advertisements to watch out for.

This new #bug allows #hackers to infect hundreds of servers with their #ransomware. They are targeting those who have yet to install a patch to fix a flaw in #VMware's #ESXiproduct. What is your company’s policy when it comes to paying #ransom?

Preparing for a #cyberattack is almost more important than cleaning up the mess one will inevitably make. Businesses and institutions must understand #cybercrime underground and develop strategies to mitigate threats to stay ahead of criminals.

#Cybercrimes are evolving and aren't slowing down soon. According to experts, the #cybertrends in attacks, strategies, and vulnerabilities are gaining power and steam in 2023 and will likely keep with that trend.

The #cyberworld is evolving and changing daily, and not always in a positive direction. Are we heading for a catastrophic event in 2023? According to the #GlobalCybersecurityOutlook report 93% of those surveyed believe we are.

#JulienLevrard, OVH’s chief information security officer, said the #ransomware installed in the attacks encrypts virtual machine files. After this, the #malware unlocks the file and keeps you locked out.

If it looks too good to be true, it probably is. The #GoogleAds network can be a place for #malware to hide and snatch your information. This is called #malvertising, which can be highly harmful to your company.

Unfortunately, #unethicalhacking is a significant #moneymaker and won't be going anywhere. These #hackers are luring young adults more and more every day.

The 100 million-user #ChatGPT chatbot has to be safe to use. Researchers at #CyberArk have done much research to show how to evade the #cyberthreats.

If you are a #leader, you are responsible for much more than just "leading people." Your job should be increasing #cybersecuritystandards as well, or else you are likely different from what your company needs at the time.

#Researchers working in #cybersecurity are warning others of a new #Googlemalware scam that could infect your #Mac. They run ads that appear to be #GoogleAds at the top of your search to get you!

There are more than 100 different #cybercriminalgangs actively planning how to get your information deploying over 50 other #ransomware families. They #encrypt networks and then demand payment for #decryptionkey.

New #phishingcampaign is abusing #OneNote documents to infect victims' computers with the pesky #AsyncRATmalware. They target computers in the U.K., Canada, and the United States. How are you steering clear of these #cybercriminals?

Thanks to the #USDepartmentofJustice, the #HiveRansomwareGang has been #hacked! They have hacked into the Hive’s #infraustructure and seized the gang's operations, making them yesterday's problem; for now.
