  1. [Перевод] Подсмотрел PIN от двери, а затем воткнул Wi-Fi-жучка за принтер — и ты внутри сети банка

    Проник в банк не через вайфай и не через фишинг — а просто пристроился к аудиторам с улицы. Никто не спросил имени. Никто не проверил. А через час уже сидел у них в сети с рабочим пропуском. Как это случилось — и почему «следовать инструкции» не спасло — в новой статье.

  2. 🎯 Threat Intelligence
    ===================

    Executive summary: A phishing scheme leverages legitimate Google infrastructure and addresses to impersonate Google Support and trick users into disclosing credentials. The campaign uses the genuine sender [email protected] and hosts cloned support pages on sites.google.com instead of support.google.com, increasing perceived legitimacy.

    Technical details:
    • Sender address observed: [email protected].
    • Phishing landing pages hosted under: sites.google.com (Google Sites subdomains).
    • Legitimate support domain expected: support.google.com.
    • Suspicious header artifact example in reported mail: to field containing me[@]googl-mail-smtp-out-198-142-125-38-prod[.]net rather than the real recipient address.

    Analysis:
    Using Google-owned domains and services (Google Sites) reduces visual indicators of fraud and can bypass naive domain-based allowlists. The flow described in reports uses a genuine Google login page when the victim is not authenticated, which then redirects to a convincingly styled sites.google.com page that mimics an official support case view. Attackers populate the email with details — Google Account ID and support ticket numbers — to reinforce trust.

    Detection:
    • Inspect email headers for mismatched to and mailed-by values; look for domains that imitate Google via typos or added tokens.
    • Flag messages where the displayed link domain differs from expected Google support domain (sites.google.com vs support.google.com).
    • Monitor for accounts that receive inbound messages claiming legal/subpoena notices with embedded external-hosted pages.

    Mitigation (as described in the report):
    • Treat sites.google.com links that purport to be official support documents with caution; verify domain differences in the header and link target.
    • Educate recipients to check from, to, and mailed-by header fields when an email requests sensitive action or login.

    Limitations & open questions:
    Observed details do not attribute the campaign to a named actor or provide expanded IoC lists beyond header artifacts and the use of Google Sites. The report focuses on the deception technique rather than exploitation of vulnerabilities.
