PlugX is now wormable. Compromised webcams found. Emotet is back. AI builds a keylogger. Cyber in the hybrid war. BEC comes to productivity suites.
A wormable version of the PlugX USB malware is found. Compromised webcams as a security threat. Emotet botnet out of hibernation. Proof-of-concept: AI used to generate polymorphic keylogger. Turning to alternatives as conventional tactics fail. Dave Bittner speaks with Eve Maler of ForgeRock to discuss how digital identity can help create a more secure connected car experience. Johannes Ullrich from SANS on configuring a proper time server infrastructure. And Phishing messages via legitimate Google notifications.
