Episode notes
Phishing As An Industrialized Platform
- Quantum Root Redirect (QRR) automates large-scale phishing, routing victims through compromised domains to evade scanners.
- The platform tracks human vs bot responses and optimizes campaigns in real time to outperform traditional defenses.
Defend With Layers And Awareness
- Do maintain layered defenses including email filters and active monitoring for compromised accounts.
- Do build security awareness and behavior programs so people can spot and report phishing quickly.
Click-Fix Attack On Hotels
- Attackers used a compromised hotel email to send fake booking.com security checks that pushed managers to run a malicious PowerShell command.
- That command installed PureRat via DLL side loading, giving full remote control of hotel systems and booking accounts.
