Daily Cybersecurity Roundup, April 04, 2025

Ukrainian systems have come under fire in a series of coordinated cyberattacks. CERT-UA linked the incidents to WRECKSTEEL, a malware strain deployed against state agencies and critical infrastructure. Along with the tax season, have come tax-related email attacks. Microsoft warned about multiple such phishing campaigns. What Coquettte lacks in sophistication, it makes up for in persistence. This low-skilled threat actor is distributing malware disguised as legitimate software, relying on Russian bulletproof hosting. Read on for more.
