Utilizing a large language model interface, the tool translates complex cybersecurity issues into user-friendly, natural language conversations for both technical and nontechnical users, enabling teams to identify vulnerabilities and proactively address them, even without possessing extensive training or expertise.
Such a development comes after the vulnerability was discovered by Proofpoint to be leveraged in intrusions beginning September 28, following the release of its proof-of-concept exploit code and technical information by Project Discovery.
Such an intrusion involved threat actors compromising a software-as-a-service user's email account to determine potentially exploitable conversations where they could deliver an email purporting to be a reply to a message about tax and payment details before establishing a new mailbox rule that would forward messages to an archive folder to conceal malicious activity.
