What happened
A broad DarkReading digest highlighting an uptick in high-impact cyber activity: nation-state and financially motivated actors are targeting industrial controllers/PLCs and SOHO routers, APT campaigns (Fancy Bear/APT28, Storm-1175) and fast-moving ransomware (Medusa) exploit n-day/zero-day flaws, and an actively exploited FortiClient authentication bypass has been tracked as CVE-2026-35616. The feed also flags growing AI-driven risks — exploit-writing models, AI-assisted supply-chain targeting, and GenAI attack vectors — plus supply-chain/code-leak incidents, credential-harvesting campaigns (e
