and phishing attacks.

Device exploitation
After MMS messages were sent to targeted users, azero-click chained exploit was triggered without any userinteraction, launching a remote code execution that elevatedthe bad actor’s privileges and allowed for lateral movement
onto the network.

Network attacks
At a coffee shop near their office, a Wi-Fi man-in-themiddle (MITM) attack against a company redirected users toa spear phishing page where corporate data was stolen.

Malicious apps

Ivanti MTD solution

Unsuspecting users installed an app from a third-party
app store. The app abused permissions, executed a device
exploit, leaked data and was used as a weapon to penetrateinternal networks via lateral movement in search for moresensitive data.

Phishing attacks
Leveraging social engineering, a bad actor tricked anunsuspecting user into clicking on a link and providing theircorporate login credentials. The attacker was then able tolog in as the user and access corporate resources.
