  1. Fake Software Tutorials on TikTok Spread Vidar Stealer

    Threat actors are leveraging TikTok and Instagram Reels to distribute the Vidar infostealer through fake software tutorials. Two distinct campaigns use short-form videos disguised as tutorials for unlocking premium software like Spotify. The first campaign uses accounts mimicking official Windows profiles with AI-voiced clips instructing users to run PowerShell commands that download Vidar from lookalike domains. One video achieved over 100,000 views. The second campaign uses ordinary accounts posting music-backed clips that bait users in comments to receive malicious links via direct message. These campaigns exploit platform recommendation algorithms by encouraging saves and shares. Vidar is sold as a service for $300 lifetime license and harvests credentials, financial data and authentication tokens.

  8. Are you using OpenAI/Atlas, Chrome/Gemini, Perplexity/Comet – READ THIS!

    Browsers with embedded AI or ChatBots have SERIOUS security flaws and the AI providers KNOW this.

    Security researchers have demonstrated AI browsers are highly vulnerable to prompt injection, where hidden instructions manipulate an AI into doing things the user never asked for. In tests researchers embedded invisible commands inside an image on a web page, and when a user asked the browser to summarize the page, it instead navigated to the user's Perplexity account, extracted their email address, and sent that data to an external server.

    The chief information security for one the offending browser stated that this issue remains an “unsolved security problem."

    These prompt injection tricks that steal an email today could drain your bank account tomorrow.

  10. FX Risk is a Data Integration failure. Our Audit found FX Exposure (USD, EUR, CNY) causing volatile financial outcomes.

    ​The mandatory fix is clear: Centralize Treasury Management and hedging data in a fully integrated system. This requires a robust data infrastructure design.

    ​We identify the weakness, then prescribe the solution.

  14. "The CFPB economists used a very conservative methodology, so the number is likely higher, but let's stick with that figure for now. The switching costs of changing banks – determining which bank has the best deal for you, then transfering over your account histories, cards, payees, and automated bill payments – are costing everyday Americans more than half a billion dollars, every year.

    Now, the CFPB wasn't gathering this data just to make you mad. They wanted to do something about all this money – to find a way to lower switching costs, and, in so doing, transfer all that money from bank shareholders and executives to the American public.

    And that's just what they did. A newly finalized Personal Financial Data Rights rule will allow you to authorize third parties – other banks, comparison shopping sites, brokers, anyone who offers you a better deal, or help you find one – to request your account data from your bank. Your bank will be required to provide that data.

    I loved this rule when they first proposed it:"
