They are televisions from another era, replaced by the flat screen, high-resolution displays of the modern era. Yet cathode-ray tubes are still surprisingly in demand. The moment he saw pictures of the grubby old televisions for sale, Shaan Joshi knew he had to have them. Joshi, a game developer and writer from central Florida in the US, immediately paid up: $2,500 (£1,900) for 10 cathode-ray tube (CRT) TVs. Chunky boxes with thick glass screens.

Back in August 2023, attackers tied to the Scattered Spider group didn’t exploit a zero-day vulnerability to hack Clorox. They simply called the service desk (run by Cognizant), claimed to be locked-out employees, and asked for password and MFA resets. According to court filings and reporting, the attacker repeatedly phoned Cognizant’s service desk, obtained repeated resets without meaningful verification, and used the resulting access to move quickly toward domain-admin footholds.

How External Attack Surface Management helps enterprises manage cyber risk

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-10-06 16:01:11

Every day, businesses spin up new digital services (websites, APIs, and cloud instances) and it can be for security teams to keep track. Somewhere in that churn, an unmonitored subdomain or misconfigured bucket lurks, waiting for an opportunistic attacker to slip in. External Attack Surface Management (EASM) flips the script: instead of reacting to breaches, you map and monitor every internet‑facing asset continuously.

Shadow IT - the systems your security team doesn’t know about - is a persistent challenge. Policies may ban them, but unmanaged assets inevitably slip through. And if defenders don’t uncover them first, there’s always a risk attackers will. With just a few days of effort, Intruder’s security team uncovered multiple real-world examples of Shadow IT exposures: unsecured backups, open Git repositories, unauthenticated admin panels, and more.
