Hot Take:

Who knew that "Charming Kitten" was actually a devious Iranian cyber threat and not just your neighbor's annoyingly adorable pet? APT42 is out here catfishing the digital world harder than a lonely teenager on a Friday night, impersonating journalists to serve up a hot dish of backdoors with a side of espionage. And let me tell you, their menu is about as charming as finding out your Tinder date is actually a sentient phishing scam.
