We believe in the power of collaboration to combat cybercrime. That's why we joined forces with INTERPOL for Operation Synergia II, targeting threats like phishing, ransomware, and info stealers. This global effort, spanning 95 countries and involving private-sector partners, led to identifying over 100 suspects and arresting 41. Building on the success of the first phase in late 2023, this latest operation, which ran from April to August 2024, helped identify about 30,000 suspicious IPs and servers. Over 75% were taken down, and law enforcement seized 59 servers and 43 devices connected to cybercriminal activity. Read More: https://kas.pr/q1x6

🤖 Holistic approach to AI risks Google has refined its Secure AI Framework and launched a website that provides an overview of AI risks throughout the AI lifecycle — from data collection and model training to everyday usage. https://saif.google/ The risk map offers a topic overview, and the resources section only lists research from Google's team. However, the Secure AI development primer is a genuinely valuable introductory course. We recommend focusing on the Risks and Controls subsections, which, though presented at a high level, serve as a useful checklist for managing AI risks. The self-assessment section includes a short questionnaire to receive a personalized list of prioritized risks for your company's specific situation. https://lnkd.in/d37pPbjw #AI #tips #cybersecurity

Their tactics follow the traditional approach of double extortion, threatening to publish data while encrypting the infrastructure. Six victims are currently listed on their leak site. https://lnkd.in/gRNn_yVk #threats #ransomware #news #cybersecurity
