Ransomware gangs have escalated their phishing tactics by using email bombing followed by impersonating IT support on Microsoft Teams. This method involves tricking employees into granting remote control access, which is then used to install malware and facilitate ransomware attacks.
Vero’s thoughts on the news:
The increasing sophistication of these ransomware attacks is a stark reminder of the need for robust security measures and user awareness training. As technology advances, so do the methods of cybercriminals, making it essential for companies to adopt multi-layered defense strategies and keep their employees well-informed about potential threats.
