Researchers with Trend Micro’s Zero Day Initiative said that the known APT group, called Water Hydra, was leveraging the flaw (CVE-2024-21412) in order to bypass Defender SmartScreen, Microsoft’s feature in Windows 10 and 11 that is aimed at preventing phishing and malware attacks.

The hacking group (tracked as Water Hydra and DarkCasino) was spotted using the zero-day (CVE-2024-21412) in attacks on New Year's Eve day by Trend Micro security researchers.

Most experts working in AI and cybersecurity agree that the benefits from this technology currently outweigh the risks. Security vendors like Trend Micro have been using AI for over a decade for spam filtering and other purposes.

"It's a pretty large attack surface right now that's often overlooked, especially in small businesses, because it's hard to manage from an enterprise level," explains Dustin Childs, head of threat awareness for Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative (ZDI), which runs the Pwn2Own hacking contest.

Increasingly, security professionals are coming together with law enforcement to provide free decryption tools — freeing locked files and eliminating the temptation for victims to pony up.

The first-ever Pwn2Own Automotive event was organized by the Trend Micro Zero-Day Initiative, the same people behind the annual Pwn2Own hacking events we have reported on over the years here at Forbes.

The first edition of Pwn2Own Automotive has come to an end and Trend Micro’s ZDI announced that participants have been awarded a total of $1,323,750 for demonstrating 49 unique and previously unknown vulnerabilities affecting automotive products.

Trend Micro is in part trying to alleviate the growing skills gap—as well as increase diversity in the field—through its Next-Gen Cyber Defenders program, a free 10-week, mostly in-person skills training experience.

Researchers and companies uncovered 96 zero-day vulnerabilities in 2023, according to data from Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative.

Few technology or cybersecurity narratives are as compelling as that of Trend Micro's sustained success and innovative strides.

Take Louise McEvoy, for instance, who’s been with Trend Micro for nine years and in her current role as VP of U.S. channel for five. She has spearheaded the launch of a new MSSP program and has an extensive history that’s in part been focused on empowering women in tech.

Taiwan’s financial system undergirds a $760 billion high-tech economy, but its vulnerability to advanced hacks has raised fears of a worst-case scenario: a full-blown cyberattack from China that sends its currency and markets into a tailspin.

Trend Micro this week launched a generative artificial intelligence (AI) tool, dubbed Trend Companion, that leverages natural language to reduce toil by bringing context to alerts and reducing the amount of time required to investigate incidents.

Trend Companion could potentially reduce analyst time spent on manual risk assessments and threat investigations by 50% or more thanks to a plain language interface.

Trend Micro is providing attack surface risk management (ASRM) capabilities to Trend Vision One cybersecurity platform users, according to the company.

Trend Micro has announced the addition of cloud risk management to its flagship cybersecurity platform.

Jon Clay, VP of Threat Intelligence at Trend Micro, told SC Media that recent campaigns abusing search-based ads should prompt ad network vendors to tighten security.

At this year's Black Hat Europe, two researchers from Trend Micro will be discussing the real, emerging new trend of "virtual kidnapping," perhaps artificial intelligence's most terrifying malicious application yet.

Trigona’s activity has drastically declined this month, according to threat researcher Paul Pajares of cybersecurity company Trend Micro. The primary flaw has been poor management of the leak site, he told Recorded Future News.

A cyberattack is a crime, and it is law enforcement’s job to investigate. Which agency should an organization call once it discovers a breach? What is law enforcement going to do? Answering these questions in advance of a breach can help enterprise leadership prepare for the role law enforcement will fill and build a more collaborative relationship.

Eva Chen, CEO of Trend Micro, discusses the challenges of tackling cyberattacks.

The cybersecurity vendor is also expanding its portfolio of assessment tools as part of a push to help enable partners to deliver more services.

The Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) will host a new Automotive Pwn2Own at the Automotive World Conference in Tokyo, January 24 to 26, 2024.

At Trend Micro, our senior management team speaks eight distinct languages, oversees employees in 65 countries, and spans over a dozen time zones.

Jon Clay, VP of Threat Intelligence of Trend Micro, joins Jill Malandrino on Nasdaq TradeTalks to discuss why school districts are a target of ransomware attacks and how cyber criminals are using ChatGPT.
