Attackers used to move fast.Now they move quietly. Instead of spreading quickly, many attacks focus on staying invisible for weeks or months. Common hiding tactics: - Disabling or weakening security tools - Deleting logs and traces - Renaming tools to look legitimate - Blending in with normal user activity Why this matters:If no alerts are triggered, attacks can go unnoticed until serious damage is done. Question:Do you trust that “no alerts” means “no attackers”? ----🍿 We’re diving deeper into this inside the Area51 group.

Most breaches don’t start with elite hackers or zero-day exploits.They start with simple, preventable mistakes. The most common entry points today: - Phishing emails that steal credentials - Exposed services open to the internet - Weak or reused passwords - Old systems that were never patched Why this matters:Once attackers get valid access, everything they do looks “normal”.From the inside, it’s very hard to tell friend from enemy. Question:What do you think is the weakest entry point in most companies today — people, passwords, or misconfigurations? ----🍿 We’re diving deeper into this inside the Area51 group.

Most people think ransomware means “malicious files”.That’s no longer true. Today, many ransomware attacks use built-in system tools that already exist on your computer. No strange files. No obvious malware. What attackers are doing: - Using normal admin tools instead of custom malware - Running commands directly in memory - Moving across the network using legitimate remote access features Why this matters:Traditional antivirus looks for bad files.If there are no bad files… detection becomes much harder. Question for the group:Are your security tools focused on behavior, or mostly on known malware? ----🍿 We’re diving deeper into this inside the Area51 group.
