EIGHTY per cent of Singaporeans believe they can spot a deepfake video, but only 25 per cent actually can. That’s the stark finding from a survey by Singapore’s Cyber Security Agency (CSA) released in July, and it should serve as a national wake-up call.

From AI hijacks to Russian ad scams, this year's Black Hat conference in Las Vegas revealed a cybersecurity battlefield that's smarter, scarier, and more sophisticated than ever. These are the moments that made the biggest impact.

New research from Infoblox sheds light on VexTrio, an extensive criminal operation employing TDSs, spoofed domains, and registered domain generation algorithms to push malicious software and scams.

For years, security researchers and threat analysts believed that much of the malicious traffic distribution system (TDS) activity on the Internet stemmed from your average cybercriminals.

Have you seen any pop-up ads lately? At Black Hat 2025, security researchers exposed how a shadowy group uses fake alerts and other scams to exploit online ad systems and target unsuspecting users.

Infoblox has rolled out major upgrades to its Protective DNS solution, targeting AI-powered cyberattacks with a more preemptive, intelligence-driven defense model, according to Security Brief Australia.

Traditional reactive detect and respond methodologies to address cybersecurity needs are quickly becoming ineffective. Bad actors in growing numbers are weaponizing generative AI applications to dramatically improve the sophistication of cyberattacks for illicit ransomware gains.

The Infoblox Threat Defense platform analyzes DNS traffic to detect and stop malware, phishing, and ransomware.

Recent updates from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have brought critical attention to a crucial yet often overlooked component of network security: the Domain Name System (DNS).

The threat actors behind the VexTrio Viper Traffic Distribution Service (TDS) have been linked to other TDS services like Help TDS and Disposable TDS, indicating that the sophisticated cybercriminal operation is a sprawling enterprise of its own that's designed to distribute malicious content.
