Russian network monitoring firm confirms cyberattack claimed by pro

Russian firm Microolap confirmed hackers hit non-critical systems, disputing pro-Ukraine group Black Spark's claims of access to core platform and customer data.

Russian network monitoring software developer Microolap confirmed hackers compromised several rarely used development systems, an outdated website, and an old Bitrix24 customer management system, but denied claims that attackers reached its EtherSensor platform or stole data from customers like Russian Railways, Goznak, and VTB Bank. The pro-Ukraine group Black Spark claimed a month-long intrusion with data extraction and deletion, publishing screenshots Microolap disputes. The company isolated affected systems and engaged an unnamed major Russian cybersecurity firm for investigation.

Google’s New Search Redirects Make It Harder to Check Where Links Lead Before Clicking

Malwarebytes reports Google's new encoded google.com/goto?url= redirects break hover-preview link checking, weakening a common phishing defense.

Google now routes some search results through opaque google.com/goto?url= redirects using custom encoding, so browser link previews no longer reveal the true destination, only the claimed label above the result. Malwarebytes found the final destination is visible only in the redirect response's Location header, complicating hover-based safety checks as well as scraping, archiving, and audit tools. The change arrives amid malvertising, search-result poisoning, and fake installer campaigns like the recent Node.js infostealer lure. Google says it deploys measures against evolving abuse but did not explain the change.

AI helps scammers build convincing antivirus renewal pages

Malwarebytes found scammers using AI to build polished fake antivirus renewal pages impersonating Avast, harvesting names, emails and phone numbers for follow-up fraud calls.

Malwarebytes analyzed a fake Avast renewal site targeting Belgian users in French, claiming a €129.99 Avast Premium Security renewal and collecting name, email address and Belgian mobile number through a cancellation form. Leftover code comments written in polite French and other stylistic clues suggest the page was generated with AI assistance, and the form was never connected to send data anywhere. The scam typically progresses to phone calls pressuring victims to install remote access software, and AI substantially lowers the barrier for producing polished, localized scam pages at scale.
