#infosec

The #infosec tag on Mastodon's infosec.exchange community collects day-to-day cybersecurity chatter. Posts include warnings about new ransomware activity from a group called Barracuda, several possible phishing sites flagged and analysed by the URLDNA scanning service, a threat-intelligence listing of an Egyptian network, and a German-language post citing an ATHENE Center report on the IT security of federal ministries as alarming. A post also notes that Dassault Systèmes software has many unpatched vulnerabilities. The tag mixes threat alerts, vendor security ratings and security-policy commentary.

Why now: It is a standing community tag driven by a steady stream of ransomware alerts, phishing reports and vulnerability disclosures, so the precise trigger today is unclear.
