Cyber Threat Intelligence

Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) is now a critical component of modern cybersecurity strategies, offering organizations the insights needed to detect, prevent, and respond to evolving digital threats. By analyzing data from threat actors, malware patterns, and network anomalies, CTI empowers security teams with actionable intelligence to stay ahead of cybercriminals. In 2025, businesses are increasingly integrating real-time CTI into their Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems and incident response workflows. This proactive approach not only enhances threat visibility but also supports risk mitigation and informed decision-making. CTI is no longer optional—it’s essential for building a resilient cyber defense.

VoidLink Malware: The Advanced Threat Targeting Linux Cloud Infrastructure

This article uncovers VoidLink, a highly advanced malware framework engineered to silently compromise Linux-based cloud infrastructure. By targeting containerized environments such as Kubernetes and Docker, detecting major cloud providers like AWS, Azure, and GCP, and deploying memory-only plugins, rootkits, and encrypted command-and-control channels, VoidLink elevates cloud malware to a level where traditional antivirus and basic monitoring tools are largely ineffective. Its adaptive behavior, deep system reconnaissance, and aggressive anti-forensics capabilities enable attackers to maintain persistent, stealthy access while harvesting credentials and moving laterally across cloud environments. The result is a rapidly evolving threat landscape where cloud-native security, Linux-focused EDR, and continuous visibility are no longer optional—but essential for protecting modern infrastructure from professional-grade cyber adversaries. ...
