Resecurity Caught ShinyHunters in Honeypot

Resecurity reports ShinyHunters (SLH) using decoy accounts; the group attacked airlines, telecoms, and law enforcement in Sept 2025.

Security Affairs

Remember the good old days when ShinyHunters proclaimed that they were all one group with Scattered Spider and Lapsus Hunters and would hereafter be known as SLSH or SLH?

Today, they contacted me to tell me they had nothing to do with the attack on Resecurity and that was the work of SLH.

So much for all one group.....

It's been a bit quiet over the last 24 hours, but we've got one interesting story about a high-profile hacking group and a cybersecurity firm playing cat and mouse. Let's dive in:

ShinyHunters vs. Resecurity: Honeypot or Hack? 🎣

- The prominent ShinyHunters hacking group (also known as "Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters") claims to have breached cybersecurity firm Resecurity, alleging the theft of employee data, internal communications, threat intelligence, and client lists.
- Resecurity vehemently denies the breach, asserting that the systems accessed by ShinyHunters were a deliberately deployed honeypot filled with synthetic data, designed to attract and monitor the threat actors.
- The firm detailed how it observed the attackers' tactics, techniques, and infrastructure, collecting telemetry and even identifying attacker IP addresses, which it subsequently shared with law enforcement, leading to a subpoena request.
