There are always so many ridiculous memes, headlines, misleading stories, viral Facebook posts and manipulated media that I see come across my Instagram feed or via my wife when she shows me TikToks she favorited.  One recent event, though, was so crushing to me that I had to call it out specifically. Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was assassinated earlier this month while making a campaign speech in public. This was a horrible tragedy marking the death of a powerful politician in one of the world’s most influential countries. It was the top story in the world for several days and was even more shocking given Japan’s strict gun laws and the relative infrequency of any global leaders being the target of violence.  It took no time for the internet at large to take this tragedy and immediately try to spin it to the...

Executive summary Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began, Ukrainians have been under a nearly constant barrage of cyber attacks. Working jointly with Ukrainian organizations, Cisco Talos has discovered a fairly uncommon piece of malware targeting Ukraine — this time aimed at a large software development company whose software is used in various state organizations within Ukraine. We believe that this campaign is likely sourced by Russian state-sponsored actors or those acting in their interests.
