18+ min ago (477+ words) Space Bears ransomware group is claiming that it obtained internal Comcast material by exploiting a breach at Quasar Inc., a telecommunications engineering contractor based in Georgia. The claims were published on the group's dark web leak site. The same leak site also lists Quasar as an independent victim, which indicates the group is presenting two connected incidents rather than a single combined breach. Space Bears appeared in April 2024. Analysts describe the group as a data theft and extortion operation that sometimes applies encryption but often focuses on obtaining sensitive files, removing them from victim networks and demanding payment to suppress publication. Several research teams link the group to the Phobos ransomware as a service program (RaaS), and the Space Bears leak site is believed to function as a shared publishing point for activity related to that infrastructure. Space Bears has…...

Yonhap The Fair Trade Commission (FTC) has launched an investigation into allegations that e-commerce giant Coupang Inc. deliberately made its account withdrawal process complex, officials said Monday.

At the same time, the FTC has ordered Coupang to submit measures to simplify its account deletion procedures as a preemptive consumer protection measure, noting that the investigation could take months to conclude, the officials said. The terms include a clause stating that the company shall not…...

A new wave of organized crime maneuvers is taking aim at Americans" holiday shopping purchases " and their wallets." Hackers leveraging malware systems and other cybercriminal tools are infiltrating online freight marketplaces to make off with high-value cargo while items are in transit. "I think the criminals have identified that the weak point between point A and point B is in transportation, right?" Michael Evanoff, chief security officer and strategic advisor for AI-security company Verkada, told Fox News Digital. "So instead of putting yourself in harm's way by going to a depot or a distribution center, why not capture it in transit?"" Since 2020, both freight companies and law enforcement have seen an alarming uptick in criminal groups utilizing remote, online methods to hijack cargo deliveries and make off…...

According to the Korean National Police Agency, voice phishing losses had decreased from 774.4 billion won in 2021 to 447.2 billion won in 2023, but surged to 854.5 billion won last year and have now exceeded 1 trillion won. While the number of cases has declined, from 30,982 in 2021 to 19,972 this year, the average loss per case has doubled, rising from 24.98 million won to 52.9 million won. The police attribute this increase to sophisticated phishing tactics that psychologically manipulate victims, delaying their realization of being scammed and resulting in larger individual losses.

31+ min ago (240+ words) "A vulnerability in this software poses a threat to billions of dollars in space infrastructure and the scientific missions they enable." Communications between Earth and NASA spacecraft were critically vulnerable to hacking for years until an AI found the flaw and fixed it in just four days. The vulnerability was sniffed out by an AI cybersecurity algorithm developed by California-based start-up AISLE and resides in the CryptoLib security software that protects spacecraft-to-ground communications. The vulnerability could have enabled hackers to seize control over countless space missions including NASA's Mars rovers, according to the cybersecurity researchers. "The vulnerability transforms what should be routine authentication configuration into a weapon," the researchers wrote. "An attacker " can inject arbitrary commands that execute with full system privileges." In other words, an attacker could remotely hijack the spacecraft or just intercept the data it is exchanging…...

36+ min ago (384+ words) Oh! That seems like it could actually be useful. Good news, an actually good Windows update is here. But it likely won't be useful for a while. Still, the foundation has been laid for your apps to update themselves thanks to the introduction of the Unified Update Orchestration Platform (UOP). The UOP will "download and install updates based on user activity and system state". Though rather than Windows Update, which provides patches for the OS and some applications and services, or Microsoft Store, UOP allows apps to stick to their own backend updating service. So, think of it like the OS helping apps to download updates when the system isn't in use. In a Microsoft blog back in May this year, product manager Angie Chen said UOP is a "Unified future for app updates", as it will work with both…...
