Show Notes
Today’s episode of Prime Cyber Insights breaks down three critical escalations in the threat landscape. We start with the $285 million drainage of Drift Protocol, a Solana-based exchange, where attackers linked to the DPRK bypassed security protocols through a novel durable nonce social engineering tactic. We then pivot to the European Commission, where CERT-EU has confirmed that the TeamPCP group used credentials stolen in the Trivy supply-chain attack to breach AWS environments, exposing data for nearly 30 other Union entities. We conclude with a briefing on NoVoice, a sophisticated Android rootkit found in over 50 Google Play apps that persists through factory resets and clones WhatsApp sessions. These reports highlight a shift toward multi-stage operations that target the human element and underlying infrastructure rather than just code vulnerabilities.
