Research notes

  • By SC Staff. article:published_time 2025-04-18T09:19:13-04:00.
  • Short news brief relaying Fortra's research rather than original reporting; the underlying vendor report is the stronger citation for the LiveRAT derivation claim.
  • The brief dates SheByte's foothold to December, after the addition of customisable 'v2' phishing pages.
