The GenAI credentials include those that belong to users of ChatGPT, Quillbot, Notion, Huggingface, and Replit, among many others.  Cybersecurity research teams say  that the hackers are selling the credentials for roughly 400 GenAI accounts per day, usually stolen from corporate end users' computers after they've been

12643104291?profile=RESIZE_400xThe criminal hacking group ShinyHunters claims it has stolen information, including bank and credit card numbers and staff HR details, from 30 million customers and employees. The stolen information includes bank account data. The hackers belong to the same gang that recently hacked Ticketmaster. The hackers are now trying to sell what they claim is confidential information belonging to millions of Santander’s employees and customers.

The research stems from an analysis of Cybersixgill's collected intelligence items throughout 2022, gathered from the deep, dark and clear web.  The report examines the continuous evolution of threat actors' tactics, tools, and procedures (TTPs) in the Digital Age and how organizations can adapt to redu

On 7 August 2022, Hackread.com reported a story detailing a Twitter data breach involving 5.4 million accounts.  Now, the very same data has been leaked on a hacker forum which surfaced as an alternative to popular and now-sized Raidforums.

10818501281?profile=RESIZE_400xAccording to a recent report, cyber threat intelligence professionals believe they could not find private data leaked from their organizations on the dark web.  Most security professionals in US organizations are concerned about threats from the dark web, a large portion still do not take risks from the criminal underground seriously.  A recent survey shows that a third of people responsible for managing cyber vulnerabilities in their day-to-day work say they are not very concerned about threats

8082894658?profile=RESIZE_400xThere is no shortage of places within the Internet's dark market where stolen credit and debit card information is sold.  Most of them, truth be told, are criminal chancers trading in recycled data from old breaches; bargains are to be held for fraudsters willing to take a gamble that some of the bundle of payment cards they have bought will actually be usable.  Not only is it the biggest, but Joker's Stash, which was established in 2014, prides itself on traders selling the "freshest" of paymen
