Field Analysis
A June 2026 wave of AWS console phishing sites relayed sign-in and MFA to the real AWS in real time, capturing session material from a curated list of engineers. AiTM has moved past Microsoft identity, and the detection has to move with it.

Field Analysis
A late-June 2026 intrusion pivoted from an email lure to an external Teams call posing as 'System Administrator,' drove the victim's desktop through Teams screen-control, and staged a Node.js-based EtherRAT that resolves its C2 from an Ethereum smart contract. The trusted channel is the tradecraft.

Arctic Wolf's June 2 follow-up describes the Kali365 operator expanding well beyond Microsoft 365: Okta SSO, Xerox DocuShare, AWS-style endpoints, and a Russian-language cluster including MAX Messenger account takeover via real SMS OTPs. Proofpoint's research places the kit inside a broader cluster of AI-generated device-code lookalikes.
