TALOS

In this episode of Talos Takes we are joined by Kendall McKay to discuss the recently released year in review report and dig deep on our activities in Ukraine. The year in review covers a vast amount of data and intel sources to identify some of the key trends we observed in 2022.

Today, Talos is publishing a glimpse into the most prevalent threats we've observed between Dec. 2 and Dec. 9. As with previous roundups, this post isn't meant to be an in-depth analysis. Instead, this post will summarize the threats we've observed by highlighting key

Welcome to this week’s edition of the Threat Source newsletter. As we hurtle toward the end of another year I get that tightness in my chest – that feeling that I think most, if not all, Threat Source readers get at this time of year. That's
