Hot Take:

It seems cybercriminals have found a new playground in the cloud, and they're behaving like unsupervised toddlers in a sandbox. Instead of building sandcastles, they're constructing elaborate malware condos complete with rootkit wallpaper and Cron job furniture. It's like watching a 'Home Invasion' reality show, but with Docker containers and a lot less charm.
