Hackers are tricking people into downloading a virus called Noodlophile by using fake AI tools. They create fake websites and promote them on social media.

These fake sites offer AI tools for video and image editing. When users upload content, they’re told to download a file. But instead of the expected results, they download a malicious ZIP file.

The file installs Noodlophile, which can:

• Steal browser passwords
• Access cryptocurrency wallets
• Collect personal data

Sometimes, it also installs XWorm, letting hackers control the infected computer.

This virus is part of a trend where hackers use fake AI services to spread malware. In 2023, Meta removed over 1,000 fake links related to AI tools like ChatGPT.

Before downloading any app, always verify the developer’s name, read through user reviews, and check the number of downloads to confirm it’s the official version. Copycat apps often mimic popular apps in name and appearance but can contain malicious software, steal personal information, or bombard you with ads. Be cautious of apps with low ratings, poor grammar in descriptions, or unusually low download counts—even if they appear in official app stores.

For your most sensitive accounts like banking, healthcare, and government services, use a separate, private email address that isn’t tied to social media or shared publicly. If attackers gain access to your main email, they can reset passwords and compromise your entire digital life. Use temporary or secondary emails for things like shopping, app sign-ups, and newsletters to keep your primary and critical accounts safer. Keeping critical accounts isolated with a low-profile email and enabling two-factor authentication adds a strong layer of protection.

To protect your personal information and your vote, avoid sharing your voter ID, ballot images, or any personal voting details online. Posting this information can put you at risk of identity theft or fraud. Always keep your voting information private, and only share sensitive details—such as your voter ID or registration information—with verified government agencies or official election offices. Never share them through social media, messaging apps, or unverified websites. Your privacy matters—stay safe and vote securely.

A company that stores backups online recently found out that a very skilled group of hackers, likely supported by a government, broke into its system by using a hidden problem that no one knew about before. Even though the system was broken into, there’s no evidence that customer information was looked at or taken, and the company kept running normally.

The company first heard something was wrong in February 2025, and they shared what they knew in March 2025. The hackers used a weakness in the system that no one had discovered or fixed yet to get in. After finding out, the company acted quickly—they changed passwords, made their systems more secure, and helped any customers who were affected.

Tips to Help You Stay Safe:

• Set limits on who can log in to your Microsoft accounts (like Microsoft 365 or Azure).
• Change the passwords your apps use every 90 days.
• Watch for logins from places you don’t recognize.

Company devices should be used only for work-related tasks. Personal use can expose confidential data and violate company security policies.

Reasons to use a separate device for personal use:
• Protect Company Data: Personal apps may carry malware that risks sensitive information.
• Prevent Data Leakage: Avoid accidentally syncing personal data with work systems.
• Reduce Security Risks: Personal browsing increases the chance of phishing and cyberattacks.

Security starts with boundaries.
