[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Exploited Edge, Social Engineering, and Subtle Evasion

A Teams message from “IT” can now be the first step in a domain takeover: remote-support session, silent install, then AD and WinRM movement.

[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Compressed View of Current Cyber Threat Landscape

Three clocks are running: active PaperCut exploitation, QTFY infrastructure rebuilding after disruption, and AI-agent activity outpacing log governance. Hunt the transitions—not the tidy incident story.

[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Expanding State Cyber Powers Amid Exploitable Gaps

Exposed management planes are becoming the shortest path from ordinary web access to operational impact. Ray CVE-2025-62593 is now in CISA’s KEV, while new Haiwell and Metasys flaws put AI compute and OT interfaces on the same uncomfortable list.

[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Converging Pressures: Identity, Edge Exploits, and Decentralized C2

Edge exploits, helpdesk vishing, stolen CI tokens, and decentralized C2 share one objective: scale access while shrinking defender visibility. Hunt the transitions, not just the opening IOC.

[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Silent Surfaces: From Zero‑Click Mail to Exposed Controllers

Zero-click Zimbra access, exposed PLC tampering, and Teams-to-ransomware chains compress the defender’s window. Prioritize server logs, controller-change evidence, and external admin-surface discovery.

[FORECAST] The Patch Deadline Is Becoming an Attacker's Watchlist

We put a 30% chance on two public FCEB cases proving post-deadline edge exploitation by year-end.

[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Perimeter to Persistence: Evolving Paths to Ransomware and OT Access

The perimeter kept the keys. Edge appliances and OT switches are becoming the shortest path from exposure to stolen identity and ransomware. The plumbing became the persistence layer.

[GAME THEORY] KEV Is Not a Patch List. It Is a Race for Control.

Nine actively exploited flaws show why patching closes an entry point—but not necessarily the incident.

[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Converging Threats Across SaaS, Web Edge, and OT

OAuth consent made SaaS data theft look normal. Niche web plugins kept handing attackers first doors. OT debug ports reminded everyone that “engineering access” can age into exposure.

[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Telephony, Observability, and Identity Under Quiet Pressure

The boring stack moved. CUCM WebDialer. Splunk sidecar. Messaging recovery keys. Very normal. Very annoying.

[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Control Planes, Stealers, and Emerging AI-Tool Abuse

The control plane blinked. Management surfaces are still getting treated like furniture.

[SIGNALS WEEKLY] Converging on Exposed Management Planes

The management plane blinked. Everyone treated it like plumbing until the attacker used it like a front door. PeopleSoft PSEMHUB, REDCap, VPN gear, SD-WAN managers, logging sidecars — different products, same pattern. The exposed control layer keeps turning into the incident path.
