THREATSDAY Bulletin surveys a broad mix of security signals this week, from a major dark‑web takedown to new kernel and cryptography updates and a wave of phishing, fraud and ransomware activity. It notes the FBI seized the RAMP cybercrime forum, with a seizure banner and statements from the forum’s administrator, highlighting shifts in underground activity as groups move to alternative spaces.
A separate item covers a new lawsuit alleging Meta can access WhatsApp chats, while Meta maintains that messages remain private due to end‑to‑end encryption. The edition also covers a post‑quantum shift, with CISA publishing initial PQC guidance to help organisations migrate and mitigate risks posed by quantum threats. Dormakaba’s physical access flaws are described as exposing doors remotely and lack of evidence of in‑the‑wild exploitation.
The roundup closes by flagging a string of other notable trends, including AI‑assisted malware tooling, live‑phishing for MFA, and the continuing growth of ransomware and dark‑net activity.
