Episode 69: “Paste & Run” Is Running Rampant
Senior Intelligence Analyst Stef Rand breaks down the threats our Intelligence team saw in May, including a debut threat: Kali365, a phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) kit that’s been used to carry out device code phishing attacks.
SHOW NOTES
In this episode of SecOps Weekly, Zscaler Senior Intelligence Analyst Stef Rand details the Intelligence Insights for June and dives deep into “Paste and Run”—a social engineering technique used by 70% of the top 10 threats. From ClickFix lures to obfuscated PowerShell commands, attackers are shifting away from traditional file downloads and tricking users into executing malware manually.
We break down the latest data on Clearfake, the rise of Kali 365, and why device code phishing is becoming a massive headache for M365 environments.
