"Russian cybergroup Star Blizzard's evolving evasion techniques and global spear-phishing attack unmasked"
A Russian hacking group known as Star Blizzard, linked to the Kremlin, has launched a global spear-phishing attack targeting individuals and organizations in the US, UK, NATO members, and countries near China. The group uses social engineering tactics, creating fake email accounts, social media profiles, and malicious websites to trick victims into clicking on malicious links or downloading files. To protect against such attacks, individuals are advised to be cautious of unknown or suspicious links, verify the identity of senders, use strong and unique passwords, enable two-factor authentication, keep software updated, and have antivirus software installed. In case of identity theft, immediate action should be taken to mitigate damage.
