Hot Take:

Just when you thought LockBit was locked up for good, these pesky ransomware purveyors are like the villain in a horror movie that just won't stay down. Now they're exploiting not one, but two ScreenConnect vulnerabilities faster than you can say 'patch update'. It's like a digital whack-a-mole, with high stakes and no tickets to redeem for a fluffy prize.
