We've been tracking #Iran cyber activity since the beginning of March, consolidating high-value intelligence into a single thread. One of the most comprehensive resources on the topic, if we do say so ourselves.

Seems like we all want to care for and protect each other. We just needed a place and permission.
Let's change cyber threat intelligence for the better.

After working on it a bit, we have a fix for a recent #ClickFix attack against #macOS that leverages AppleScript. Here's the writeup, and a link to the forum thread!

Following up on an excellent blog post we discovered (linked in thread), we dug a little deeper on a recent #WordPress plugin compromise. We have more IoCs for you, and what we believe to be a use of the blockchain for an initial access auction for the plugin install base.

CISA is claiming that #Iran is once again targeting Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), similar to efforts in 2024. Has anyone seen recent evidence of this? None was provided from CISA, and we'd love independent confirmation.

We ask for preferred pronouns when you register. We do this so everyone can address you how you wish. But it's also a signal of how you'll treat others.
We just rejected a forum account application because of joke pronouns. That is such a low barrier and if you don't take it seriously, we have no confidence you'll treat our community members with respect.

We've been tracking this Adobe 0-day in Acrobat Reader. Still no patch from Adobe (and no word on affected versions). Per the discoverer, this attack has been ongoing for months.

With so many downside risks, and with such dubious benefit to usage, the choice for IFIN is clear: we choose not to participate in the toxic cult of generative AI. Our published material and code are not produced with these models.
