Russian cyber ops, Sygnia, Ollama & TeamPCP / Intel Chat [#293]

In this episode of The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, we discuss some intel being shared in the LimaCharlie community.

• Russian cyber operations have maintained a consistent focus on exploiting both tactical and strategic targets within the defense industrial base, particularly in the context of the war in Ukraine.
• Sygnia has disclosed a large-scale, AI-driven scam operation involving over 150 cloned websites impersonating law firms.
• A joint investigation by SentinelLabs and Censys has revealed a growing ecosystem of publicly exposed AI compute infrastructure, driven largely by deployments of Ollama - an open-source framework for running large language models locally.
• Flare has identified a widespread, ongoing campaign attributed to a threat actor group known as TeamPCP -also operating under aliases such as PCPcat and ShellForce - which has compromised over 60,000 servers worldwide since late December.
