Deceptive installers disguised as legit macOS software deliver infostealers that grab passwords, cookies, and crypto wallets. Learn how to detect them.
Feature parity across Windows, macOS, and Linux sounds simple on a product roadmap. Actually building it means reconciling fundamentally different operating systems. Here's how Huntress is approaching it.
An AMOS infostealer alert looked routine until Huntress ruled out every known delivery vector. What they found instead: malware being delivered through ChatGPT and Grok themselves.
A partner reported a potentially malicious Zoom extension. What Huntress found was a full DPRK BlueNoroff intrusion targeting a Web3 company that was weeks in the making and deeply sophisticated.
Macs don't get viruses' was barely true in 2000. It's not true now. Huntress debunks the five most persistent macOS security myths, and what each one is costing the teams that still believe them.
BlackBerry said the new LightSpy upload was an iOS implant. Huntress researchers disagreed — what they found was an unreported macOS variant. Here's the full analysis of what it actually does.
It seems like a new infostealer variant hits the market and starts stealing people’s info every day. Although crypto is one of their biggest targets, it doesn’t stop ‘em from going after everything in sight. Today’s infostealers are doing more than stealing passwords. They’ll take your VPN configurations, browser autofills, even your AI configurations—anything that’s not nailed down. And it doesn’t stop there; this info is passed on and used for ransomware and other criminal activity ( à la initial access brokers). If you’ve seen any security news in the last year, you’ll know infostealers have been talked about non-stop. But here’s why we HAVE to talk about ‘em again. We’re exposing the infostealer underground: stolen info at scale, anatomy of a bot, how infostealer logs are packaged, sold, and marketed, threat actor engagement, and initial access brokerage, as well as “malware-as-a-service”.
Back in the day, Macs were “safe.” As Windows devices fought off malware, Mac users didn’t have to worry about a thing—at least that’s what the rumor was. Watch this jam-packed virtual event with information on the hidden threats, strategies, and solutions you can use to secure your macOS systems.
