Defenders Fight Back Against Manipulated Reality

August 2, 2021

VMware’s seventh annual Global Incident Response Threat Report analyzes how attackers are manipulating reality to reshape the modern threat landscape.

Examples include business communications compromise (BCC) or the manipulation of time.
