What happened
SANS ISC diary roundup: a FedEx-themed phishing message delivered malware (not a simple credential-harvest), illustrating a shift in courier-themed lures to direct malware distribution. Other notable items include ongoing campaigns delivering malicious JPEG/MSI-style payloads caught by email proxies, a reminder about the risk of open redirects, a guest diary on running honeypots with AI assistance, and a conceptual CLAIR model for mapping infrastructure interdependencies. Multiple ISC Stormcast podcast entries were also published.
