[Carl Leonard @carlLsecurity]

Following on from our earlier blog that described threat actors adjusting to new lure themes we have now performed a trend analysis of legit and malicious traffic over the web and email channels.
How are cyber criminals adapting? How are your employees?

[Forcepoint X-Labs @ForcepointLabs]

New blog - Three-Month Trend Analysis: COVID and Coronavirus-Themed Web and Email Traffic

https://t.co/zxbfnD68lR

We describe the trends observed in legitimate and malicious web & email traffic to understand the behaviour of cybercriminals & employees over the past 3 months.

[Carl Leonard @carlLsecurity]

Cyber criminals are using every medium they can (email, web, SMS, social media) to take advantage of the current situation. We explore several examples that we are tracking.

Bottom line: same underlying TTP but with a new lure theme.

[Forcepoint X-Labs @ForcepointLabs]

New blog - Malware Authors and Scammers Adapt to Current Events with Phishing and More

Forcepoint X-Labs' researchers explore how cyber criminals are taking advantage of world events with spam, phishing and malware campaigns.
