LatAm's Self-Taught Cyber Talent Overlooked Amid Cyberattack Glut

The Dark Reading collection highlights an accelerating wave of high-risk activity: AI-assisted malware and obfuscation (DeepLoad, junk-code generation), commoditized info-stealer services (Venom Stealer MaaS/ClickFix), and rapid exploitation of critical application and supply-chain flaws.
