Resecurity is thrilled to be part of the upcoming c0c0n 2023, one of the biggest cybersecurity conferences in India 🇮🇳 . Visit us at Booth #3 and learn more about our solutions to safeguard your digital realms. The event will take place at Grand Hyatt (Kochi, India) from the 4th to the 7th of October.

Our team will be showcasing the award-winning platform, covering Endpoint Protection, Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI), Digital Risk Management (DRM), External Risk Mitigation and management (ERMM), Identity Protection (IDP) and Fraud Prevention.

We look forward to meeting our partners and customers to accelerate successful business and technology alliances!

The event is organized with support by the State Police Department of Kerala, ISRA (a registered non-profit organization in the area of Information Security), The Society for the Policing of Cyberspace (POLCYB) and the Kerala State IT Mission.

We had engaging discussions at yesterday’s event hosted by The American Chamber of Commerce in Singapore (AmCham Singapore) about the current technology landscape, the growing threat of cyber-attacks from new technologies and how board and companies can add real value through proactive technology behaviors.

Thank you to AmCham for organising, to Reshmi Khurana Laroia for guiding the discussion, to co-panellists CK CHIM and Siddhartha Sivaramakrishnan for their thoughtful insights, and to our audience for their probing questions.

Resecurity research recently found that ‘Smishing Triad,’ a group specializing in phishing scams conducted via SMS (smishing attacks), has expanded its attack campaign into the United Arab Emirates (UAE). First identified by Resecurity in August, the group was initially observed targeting victims in the U.S., UK, Poland, Sweden, Italy, Indonesia, Japan, and other countries.

This month, “Smishing Triad” has broadened its horizons and migrated its attack campaign to the UAE. Resecurity, a leader in cybersecurity and threat intelligence, has identified domain names that closely resemble those used by the group in their previous campaigns. Threat actors registered the majority of these UAE-focused domains with Gname.com Pte. Ltd., a Singapore-based web registrar.

“Smishing Triad” fraudsters also listed various Chinese entities as registrant organizations, or the owners of the fraudulent domains. Similarities in domain signatures noted by Resecurity indicate a calculated and ongoing threat to the Emirates. The assessment that “Smishing Triad” is hyper-targeting victims in the Emirates is further supported by the group’s geo-fencing of smishing page access to UAE citizens only.
