“Hacking doesn’t break the locks now... He dressed up as a security guard. "
Even if the file looks secure... Windows doesn't warn you.. You can get the virus.
Hackers are now sending out fake meeting invitations to Zoom and Microsoft Teams with malicious files attached.
What’s the trick ? This file is documented with a stolen or hijacked digital signature.
*Windows will look at it as reliable
*No warning may come up
*Some protection programs can be allowed to pass
Simply: A hacker wears a true security certificate.
You are getting:
"Urgent meeting of the Board of Directors." ”
"Updating the client session. ”
“New Teams meeting link. ”
Downloading the file and tap it... There's no warning... And the file works silently on your device.
After this, hackers are possible:
*they steal passwords
*rides remote access devices
*posts ransom ware
*the company network atmosphere is moving
Old scam used to make you ignore warnings.
The new attack finally cancels the warning, and exploits our confidence in technology.
🔐 How to protect yourself and your company:
*do not download any meeting attachments from the email
*update Zoom or Teams only from the app
*Use allow trusted apps only
* Monitor any strange activity on the device, not only protection software
* Employee training: “digital signature” doesn’t always mean safe
If you have an employee, receive this today... Your controls will stop him, or your trust will help the hacker?
