๐Ÿšจ Security Alert๐Ÿšจ

North Korean hackers are escalating attacks on crypto firms (and their employees) with malicious PDFs posing as legitimate documents.

๐Ÿ‘‰ These PDFs, once opened, install malware, granting unauthorized access to sensitive systems and data.

๐Ÿ‘‰ The FBI has warned of these advanced social engineering tactics, stressing the need for vigilance.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Now more than ever, Tier 1 cybersecurity measures are essential to protect assets in the crypto space, and it starts with knowledge.

If you receive an unsolicited PDF from a colleague or a cold DM, follow these steps:

1. Always confirm the sender's identity through a separate, trusted channel

2. Never open or download PDFs from unknown sources

3. Run all documents through up-to-date antivirus software

4. Make security a habit; share this guidance with colleagues to stay vigilant
