ESET's podcast summarises H1 2023 threat trends: a surge in sextortion and text-based extortion, renewed brute-force attacks against exposed MS SQL servers, malicious Android loan/usury apps targeting specific regions, low but notable Emotet activity, and the disruption of the RedLine stealer ecosystem, alongside mentions of a Lazarus double supply‑chain incident and evolving ransomware and cryptocurrency threats.
