AI Threat Intelligence vs. Traditional Threat Intelligence: A Practical Guide for CISOs
Most CTI programs aren’t failing because analysts lack skill. They’re failing because signal volumes have outpaced what any manual workflow can process. Thousands of newly registered domains, phishing kit variants, and brand impersonation attempts surface daily. Human teams can’t triage all of it. Threat intelligence automation addresses the throughput problem by automating collection, enrichment and prioritization so analysts spend time on decisions, not data wrangling.
Check for deepfakes before the interview
What if you could verify a candidate's identity before they joined an interview? With Persona, recruiters can move a candidate to interview stage and ATS integrations trigger Persona to automatically send an identity verification request.
Digital Arrest Scams: One of India's Most Heinous Cybercrime Stories
Fear, authority, and isolation are turning social engineering into one of the country’s most effective and revealing cybercrime models.
Scammers Can Use AI Tools to Pinpoint Your Location Based on a Photo
Scammers can use AI tools to find your location in photos you post to social media, according to researchers at McAfee. This information can then be used in targeted social engineering attacks. The researchers found that free AI models can correctly identify a photo’s location with around 90% accuracy.
The MemcycoFM Show: Ep 27 - What Is Agentic Threat Intelligence?
In the recently published blog from Memcyco titled "What Is Agentic Threat Intelligence?", we discussed agentic threat intelligence as an emerging CTI model. Bounded agents support repetitive investigation work, such as collection, enrichment, prioritization, and evidence packaging, while analysts retain control over takedown and escalation decisions. Vendor briefings are full of “agentic AI” right now. Most of them describe the same thing: faster dashboards and smarter alerts. That is not agentic threat intelligence.
How Threat Intelligence Automation Helps Security Teams Prioritize External Threats
Phishing sites now live for under 24 hours. By the time a manual review cycle completes, the credential harvesting is done. That window is why threat intelligence automation has moved from a nice-to-have to an operational necessity for security and fraud teams managing external threats. Threat intelligence automation solves the prioritization problem by enriching raw signals before they reach analysts.
Phishing Campaign Impersonates Interpol to Deliver Ransomware
A phishing campaign is targeting small businesses across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the United States with emails that impersonate Interpol’s cybercrime investigation unit, researchers at Bitdefender report.
The MemcycoFM Show: Ep26 - From Brand Impersonation to Account Takeover: The ATO Attack Chain
In the recently published blog from Memcyco titled "From Brand Impersonation to Account Takeover: The ATO Attack Chain" we discussed how brand impersonation attacks operate as a fast-moving sequence from lookalike domains and cloned pages to credential harvesting and account takeover, why traditional brand monitoring and domain takedown tools consistently miss the exposure window, and how real-time signal correlation can connect impersonation indicators directly to fraud and authentication workflows before the attack concludes.
Identity Verification Software: Why It Matters for Secure Digital Onboarding
As more financial services, lenders, fintech firms, and digital businesses move customer journeys online, identity verification has become a critical part of building trust. Customers expect fast onboarding, but organisations also need to prevent fraud, meet compliance obligations, and protect sensitive data. This is where identity verification software plays an important role. It helps businesses confirm that customers are who they claim to be while keeping the process efficient, secure, and user-friendly.
