Pleased to share I’ll be speaking at Adversary Village in DEFCON33!

Pleased to share my first official Team Cymru blog that follows on from my webinar last month 🙌 “Uncovering DPRK Remote Workers: Detecting Hidden Threats Through Internet Telemetry” 🇰🇵 🔍 www.team-cymru.com/post/uncover...

⚠️ IntelBroker was arrested in France 🇫🇷 in February 2025, and the US 🇺🇸 is seeking his extradition. How did Law Enforcement Deanonymize IntelBroker? 🔍 TL;DR: He messed up on the Bitcoin opsec after an undercover officer made a controlled buy 💰 www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/me...

@bushidotoken.net explored a Meta-themed credential phishing campaign (not "Reality"). From those indicators, I pulled the "Threads" & this is far from an isolated campaign. Found great pivots in registration "Meta"data. (I'll see myself out.) All 762 indicators 💥⤵️ www.validin.com/blog/not_rea...

New Blog! Tracking Adversaries: EvilCorp, the RansomHub affiliate blog.bushidotoken.net/2025/04/trac...

UNC3886 is a very interesting China-nexus APT that I encourage more to CTI analysts to investigate. They are one of the more skilled ones, like Salt or Volt. To help make life easier for some, I’ve manually mapped their TTPs to ATT&CK: github.com/BushidoUK/MI...

Interesting phishing TTP observed in the wild last year: 1. Send phish to an <org_name>@service-now[.]com inbox 2. A ticket is then auto-created in the platform using servicenow_notification@<org_domain> 3. A link is put in the body of the SNOW ticket that can lead to malware or fake login page

@bushidotoken.net has dug up some IOCs for the FBI's recent warning about online file format converters being used to distribute malware Link: x.com/BushidoToken...

Very interesting screenshot in the latest FBI arrest of the main LockBit developer “Rostislav Panev” Source code for LockBit builders for #Proxmox and #Nutanix, which have not been observed in the wild AFAIK 🧐 www.justice.gov/opa/media/13...

Signal is just another area of operations for cybercrime and organised crime like any other. And CTI vendors would not be doing their job if they were not infiltrating these communities and group chats. It’s not Signal’s fault. It’s just a fact of the internet. TL;DR — No lol, Signal wasn’t hacked

Oh my gosh, @bushidotoken.net just walked on stage for his #CyberThreat24 presentation on cyber criminal OPSEC fails to John Cena's entrance music. 😁🫡

New Blog! Top 10 Cyber Threats of 2024 Overall, this year was full of mega breaches, government hacking campaigns, massive ransomware attacks, disruptive ICS attacks, and global technology failures blog.bushidotoken.net/2024/12/top-... #cybercrime #infosec #malware #cybersecurity

Usually I take a notebook to conferences and use it to write notes instead of using my phone so the speaker doesn’t think I am bored and playing on my phone instead lol 📝

From seeing my the Spotify wrapped of my friends, if you were to create a Venn diagram of drum and bass fans & infosec workers, it would be a circle

Created a new repo to publish my MITRE ATT&CK mappings for when reports don't have a section on TTPs, hopefully useful for other defenders working on detection engineering & threat hunting. github.com/BushidoUK/MI...

Create a YARA rule and a Sigma rule recently for a USB malware I’ve been researching called UniversalMiner, first reported on by CERT-AZ. Hope defenders elsewhere find them helpful :) YARA github.com/BushidoUK/YA... Sigma github.com/BushidoUK/Si...

Is anyone using LLMs where you can use a prompt to create any type of virtual infrastructure, run a malware sample, generate event logs, and exit? I am wondering if one of the Malware Sandbox companies is working on something like that. Free idea right there.

Pantheon on Netflix is a good animated series, lots of fun cyber, AI, and neuroscience stuff. And who doesn’t love some Ghost in the Shell references too.

Ever wondered about how many women are cybercriminals and what sort of roles they play in the underground? Check out this new SANS #FOR589 Blog below👇 www.sans.org/blog/women-i...

👵🏼 O2’s created an AI-powered scam-baiter tool that sounds like an elderly grandmother. They “Daisy” phone numbers were added to known lists used by scammers. The AI bot wasted up to 40 mins of their time and fed them false PII and fake bank details! www.standard.co.uk/news/tech/da...

Using NotebookLM, I generated another AI podcast based on one of my previous blogs. I find it to be an interesting and useful way to repackage some of my work in a way that some people seem to prefer. youtu.be/SU3LMzgym9M?...

New Blog! blog.bushidotoken.net/2024/10/cybe...

I am happy to share another new resource I created called the Ransomware Vulnerability Matrix 🔗 github.com/BushidoUK/Ra... #CTI #Ransomware #CVE #Exploit

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #119,222!

The “catch and release” method the UK criminal system has for minors (17 y/o) conducting destructive cybercriminal ransomware campaigns is insane. The local UK ROCUs are woefully under staffed to monitor such cybercriminals — there will be more Lapsus$ and Scattered Spiders until something changes ⚠️

Olá Brasil, ouvi dizer que muitos brasileiros estão no Bluesky agora após o banimento do X/Twitter, siga se você se interessa por crimes cibernéticos! 🇧🇷
