Every holiday season, malicious threat actors ramp up their activities as consumers spend their days at home cuddled up on the couch, surfing for gifts for their loved ones. This holiday season figures to be no different.
The Retail & Hospitality Information Sharing and Analysis Center (RH-ISAC) released its 2022 Holiday Season Cyber Threat Trends report, detailing the threat landscape the retail and hospitality industries face during the holiday season.
The report found that QakBot, Emotet, Agent Tesla, and Dridex are likely to be the most used malware tools by threat actors, while phishing and fraud remain “critical concerns,” with return and gift card fraud increasing significantly.
