What happened
Multiple KrebsOnSecurity posts in Mar–Apr 2026 highlight a wave of high-impact cyber activity: law enforcement action against Scattered Spider (a senior member pleaded guilty for SIM/text-phishing-enabled intrusions and crypto theft); large-scale exploitation and disclosure of multiple zero-days and hundreds of Microsoft vulnerabilities (including a SharePoint Server zero-day and a Windows Defender issue dubbed “BlueHammer”); Google Chrome and Adobe emergency fixes; Russian state-linked campaigns abusing legacy router flaws to harvest Microsoft Office authentication tokens across ~18,000+ nets
