Open Source Intel Tools Are Powering Pre-Breach Campaigns

Attackers increasingly use tools like Maltego, Recon-ng, and SpiderFoot to build full organizational maps before launching a single payload—tracking vendors, domains, emails, and even building layouts.

Teams should routinely scan for their own exposure, monitor OSINT platforms, and sanitize sensitive metadata from online documents and resumes.

Burnout Is Fueling Insider Risk Across Industries

Overworked IT and security staff are showing signs of quiet quitting—or worse, turning passive-aggressive with access. Some incidents involve internal credential leaks or “forgotten” decommissioning tasks.

Watch for disengagement signs, rotate responsibilities, and implement segmented access for high-risk or emotionally burned-out employees.

Zoom Bombing Is Back—With Social Engineering Add-ons

Attackers are reusing old calendar links and using fake identities to infiltrate internal meetings. Once inside, they extract sensitive project timelines or impersonate execs.

Enforce passcodes for all meetings, disable join-before-host, and purge outdated links from shared calendars.

 

For 20 years, Jira has been the #1 choice for agile software teams to manage delivery of incredible projects. Now, Jira is flexible and easy to use for any team. In fact, in 2024, Atlassian was the only vendor recognized as a Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for both DevOps Platforms and Marketing Work Management Platforms - bringing together every kind of team to deeply transform how they run, grow, and share best practices.

And with AI in Jira, you can capture tasks from Slack or Microsoft teams, write a complete description, create subtasks based on your previous work, and find and attach relevant work and resources.

So your teams, instead of working in siloed spreadsheets, can move forward with all the context they need to move their big ideas from due to done. That’s how Jira helped Reddit break down silos between teams and Roblox save 150K annually.

SaaS Platforms Leaking Data via Misconfigured Webhooks

Some third-party integrations expose sensitive data—like customer emails, order info, or API tokens—via webhook payloads sent to incorrect or stale URLs.

Audit all webhook destinations, restrict payload visibility, and validate callback endpoints regularly.

Credential Theft via Embedded AI Forms in Fake Landing Pages

New phishing campaigns use embedded AI chatbots on malicious landing pages. These bots simulate account recovery or identity verification, luring users into submitting credentials interactively.

Educate users to avoid chatbot-style “login assistance” and flag all conversational UIs outside of trusted domains.

Unused GitHub Repos Are Getting Hijacked

Attackers are taking over old, abandoned GitHub repos under dormant usernames, reuploading malicious versions of codebases, and pushing supply chain threats to unsuspecting devs.

Reclaim old orgs, delete unused repos, and monitor forks and stars for suspicious reactivation patterns.
