This introductory post kicks off a blog series on AI agent vulnerabilities, outlining key security risks like prompt injection and code execution, and sets the stage for future parts, which will dive deeper into issues such as code execution flaws, data exfiltration, and database access threats.

We dive into one of the most sophisticated and impactful ecosystems within the global cybercrime landscape. Our research looks at tools and techniques, specialized forums, popular services, plus a deeply ingrained culture of secrecy and collaboration.

Stolen certificates and private keys could be weaponized by cybercriminals to penetrate a company’s system. Our research investigates how these scenarios would play out, how they affect the organizations, and how to prevent such attacks.

The Trend 2025 Cyber Risk Report sustains our shift towards proactive security. Protecting enterprises is no longer about stopping breaches but is now about staying ahead, making cybersecurity a business enabler. By looking at the 2025 risk landscape, we recognize exposures and understand attacker behavior to be able to implement countermeasures, transforming security from a challenge to a catalyst for innovation and business growth.

Social engineering is a tactic that, at its core, creates a false narrative to exploit a victim’s credulity, greed, curiosity, or any other very human characteristics. Attackers continue to enhance existing social engineering and use new technologies.

Water Ouroboros (aka Hunters International) is a Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) group that first emerged in October 2023. It is suspected to be a possible spin-off of Hive ransomware, which had its activities disrupted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in January 2023.

This article offers a fresh perspective on AI security, emphasizing that while core AI models are often the focus, the surrounding infrastructure and cloud services are equally critical to securing AI applications, particularly with the rise of AI-as-a-Service.

In this entry, we mapped the capabilities of various AI digital assistants that were showcased at CES 2025 based on an assessment matrix we developed to determine how this emerging technology holds up against potential security threats.

In 2022, Trend Micro conducted extensive research to understand potential cyber threats to the metaverse amid significant global changes and a growing focus on AI technologies. The release of Apple's Apple Vision Pro headset a year later provided an opportunity to evaluate these predictions, highlighting both advancements and persistent challenges in areas such as data privacy, biometric security, and multi-vendor interoperability.
