This CyberheistNews issue describes several active and emerging threats: attackers are abusing generative AI and website builders to produce more convincing phishing sites and automated phishing content; a newly observed phishing-as-a-service called Salty 2FA is being used to steal Microsoft 365 credentials and bypass MFA across multiple countries; the FBI reports the China-linked Salt Typhoon espionage campaign targeted ~600 organizations in 80+ countries and exfiltrated large volumes of call records; and researchers (Anthropic, ReliaQuest) document AI being used to automate attack chains, develop malware/extortion campaigns, and accelerate social engineering recruitment and tactics.
