Fake Gemini npm Package Steals AI Tool Tokens
Hackers are abusing a fake Gemini-themed npm package to steal tokens and secrets from developers using AI coding tools like Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, PearAI, and others. The README text was copied from the unrelated chai-await-async library, a mismatch that should have been a red flag for careful reviewers. Code analysis showed the package contacting a Vercel-hosted endpoint, server-check-genimi.…

Multi-OS Cyberattacks: How SOCs Close a Critical Risk in 3 Steps
Your attack surface no longer lives on one operating system, and neither do the campaigns targeting it. In enterprise environments, attackers move across Windows endpoints, executive MacBooks, Linux infrastructure, and mobile devices, taking advantage of the fact that many SOC workflows are still fragmented by platform. For security leaders, this creates a First seen on…

5 Steps to break free from alert fatigue and build resilient security operations
2. Prioritize outcomes over ticket volume : Stop focusing on how many alerts are cleared. This may be a metric for a better understanding of where automation or headcount are necessary but prioritize outcomes. Instead, the right questions are: How quickly did you contain a threat? Did we disrupt business operations or keep recovery swift and effective? A practical, outcome-driven SOC measures: Dwell time: How long before a threat was neutralized? Mean Time to Contain: How quickly…
