This article warns that employee oversharing on LinkedIn, GitHub, and consumer social platforms fuels OSINT-driven spearphishing and BEC, illustrating the risk with hypotheticals and references to real cases (e.g., a $3.6m BEC at CHOA) and groups like SEABORGIUM and TA453; it recommends strengthening security awareness, implementing clear social media policies, enforcing MFA and strong passwords, monitoring public-facing content, and conducting red-team exercises to reduce exposure.
