Hacking company Oxygen Forensics sold its services to European law enforcement.
Last week, US DOJ arrested its top executives for concealing ties to Russia.
Every government using these tools has to severe ties & conduct full investigation!

Academics and civil society on both sides of the Atlantic have raised serious concerns regarding Canada's Bill C-22. If the @EU_Commission wants to be taken seriously when speaking about tech sovereignty, it must defend privacy and security of people and businesses in Europe now!
Canada’s Bill C-22 could put privacy worldwide at risk by expanding surveillance powers + metadata retention that reach beyond Canada.
We urge European policymakers to demand that the Canadian gov’t protect end-to-end encryption + people’s data.

DSLU investigated a multi-stage phishing campaign targeting Ukrainian civil society that combines reply-baiting, malicious LNK files, GitHub+GitLab abuse, and fileless execution.
The attack starts with a harmless-looking collaboration email with no links or attachments. Only after the victim replies do the attackers send a link to an archive containing an LNK file disguised as a PDF.
Once opened, it displays a decoy document while executing malicious code in the background. The attackers use GitHub to deliver additional code, establish persistence through a scheduled task, and collect and exfiltrate data from the compromised system.
