“I built this passion and got this amazing feeling when my work was making an impact and people were receiving some value.”

“Now, Google Summer of Code is a wonderful opportunity to connect with open-source organizations and Open Library where its work directly impacts people’s lives.”

Специалисты GSOC обнаружили фишинговую атаку с использованием бренда GIS DAYS

Хабр, привет! На связи аналитики GSOC. В начале июля мы обнаружили фишинговую атаку , в которой злоумышленники задействовали бренд GIS DAYS. Письмо пришло с внешнего адреса annaborisova.official@mail[.]ru с темой «Приглашение на GIS DAYS 2026 – форум по информационной безопасности». В нём находились PDF-файл с приглашением и запароленный архив с исполняемыми файлами .exe. PDF-приглашение мимикрирует под легитимный документ, в котором были использованы актуальный логотип мероприятия этого года, поддельный сертификат электронной подписи, основная публичная информация о мероприятии, а в качестве отправителя был указан генеральный директор. В этой статье разберём атаку.
