Hot Take:

Oh, come on, do people still get tricked by phishing emails?! Apparently yes, they do. The Israel National Cyber Directorate has sounded the alarm on a new type of phishing email. These sneaky little cyber gremlins pretend to be security updates for F5 BIG-IP devices, but instead of providing a security fix, they try to wipe your data faster than you can say "Wait, was that email legit?" And don't even get us started on the so-called 'Bibi Wiper' - it's not a new cleaning gadget, but a nasty data wiper targeting both Linux and Windows devices. Sigh, the internet is a dangerous place, folks!
