Behind the Mythos hype, Glasswing has just one confirmed CVE
Why is Glasswing still a big deal: VulnCheck’s findings reframe Glasswing’s capabilities. The limited number of directly attributable CVEs is just one way of measuring its impact. Industry observers are interpreting Mythos much differently.Melissa Bischoping, a SANS Technology Institute board member and senior Director of security and product research at Tanium, thinks Mythos potential lies…

Iran-Linked CyberAv3ngers Target Water Utilities, Industrial Controllers
Iran-linked threat group CyberAv3ngers is intensifying attacks on U.S. water utilities and industrial control systems, shifting from noisy hacktivism to sustained disruption of operational technology (OT) environments. CyberAv3ngers operates as a state-directed persona for Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Cyber-Electronic Command (IRGC-CEC), not as an independent hacktivist crew. U.S. Treasury sanctions in February 2024 named six IRGC-CEC…
