Sports fans still like to use their favorite club as their password. The top 30 list of stolen passwords (Germany) that are most frequently found online in 2024 clearly shows this. A soccer club is already in second place. Only "Password1" can be found more often - as bad as that is. #password #phishing #darkweb #cybersecurity #idtheft #soccer

Radical transparency may be a trend in many industries - I don't like the way TransparentTribe seem to be approaching it from Pakistan. They trick targeted users into revealing credentials or downloading malware onto their systems. Cyble has presented APT 36 in a comprehensive profile. #infosec #malware #phishing #cybersecurity #apt

When it comes to cybercrime, Russians and Ukrainians could almost be brothers in arms - at least that's how you could interpret the latest Europol report. They analyzed 821 criminal networks, and nine of the most threatening networks specialize in cyberattacks as their main activity. If you look at the details, Russians and Ukrainians are the most strongly represented nationalities there. #cybersecurity #ransomware #truecrime #europol #infosec
It doesn't seem to be that easy to have a suspected fake shop closed down. Want an example?
https://akrylfrancecc.com/ supposedly sells motorhomes.
If you move the mouse pointer over the page, you will quickly notice that behind the social media logos there are only the home pages of the respective services. But personal contact is also likely to be difficult. A business address in Germany, but a telephone number in France? Currently, only the city is listed. A few weeks ago, the site admin had also added the street address. Anyone who knows the area will know that there is a garage there. With motorhome rental and its own small website. Akrylfrancecc takes advantage of this fact - but there is no actual link between the French online service and the German garage. The German owner of the workshop has filed a complaint with the police. The reaction of akrylfrancecc.com? They left the location unchanged, but removed the address of the garage. Cheeky, but the site is still online. #fakeshop #idtheft #cybercrime @Europol
The German Bundestag has voted in favor of implementing the Digital Services Act, thereby implementing the EU's requirements. The Act regulates fines and penalties for infringements, which can amount to up to 6 percent of annual revenue for internet platform operators. The EU Commission is already responsible for monitoring online giants such as Google. In Germany, this is now to be the Federal Network Agency for smaller providers. #eu #bundestag #dsa #bundesnetzagentur #hatespeech #dataprotection

From good cop, bad cop to good bot, bad bot. Spiderlabs compared the two best-known malicious LLMs and their evolutionary stages. The conclusion on WormGPT and FraudGPT - "The product may still be far from perfect, but one way or another, this is a clear sign that generative artificial intelligence can become a weapon in the hands of cybercriminals." #ai #tech #fraudgpt #wormgpt #cybersec #darknet
As technology continues to evolve, there is a growing concern about the potential for large language models (LLMs), like ChatGPT, to be used for criminal purposes. In this blog we will discuss two such LLM engines that were made available recently on underground forums, WormGPT and FraudGPT.
Lawsuits can be very revealing, like this one. It shows what data material is used in AI training. The fact that companies use "collected knowledge" and, for example, the well-crafted texts in a library as a basis for earning money is one of the facets of AI. The courts clarify the question of whether the authors whose texts contribute to business success must be involved in this. But what does this mean in principle for texts and graphics that are created as a product when working with an AI? Does it make a difference whether an author or graphic designer watches films and reads books - all of which are protected by various rights - takes inspiration from them and uses this inspiration to create a piece of commissioned work - or whether an AI does the same? #ai #copyright #tech #lawsuit #NVIDIA #california
What does a European Data Protection Supervisor actually do? I wouldn't have thought straight away, for example, that he checks whether the European Commission has installed and uses Microsoft 365 in an appropriate way. But he did and has now stated in a press release that there is a problem right there. #privacy #dataprotection #microsoft #eu
ENISA is responding to the rapid developments in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), including deep fakes. The new version of the security compendium is intended to help better protect the upcoming elections in many European countries against cybersecurity risks. #enisa #cybersecurity #ai #tech #deepfakes
