An employee checks their inbox and notices an email from HR with a worrying subject line reading, “Happy New Year! Structural changes in the company for 2025!” Feeling reluctant yet compelled, they open the email to find a link asking for their login credentials. They pause, uneasy and apprehensive, yet the looming fear of layoffs or demotions compels them to enter their credentials.

Little did they know, the email wasn’t from the HR team. The moment they entered their details, threat actors gained access to their corporate credentials.

With incidents like this occurring frequently, our IT Security Under Attack page helps spread awareness on security attacks plaguing the current IT landscape along with detection strategies to combat them. We look at these incidents from a unique two-sided perspective:

  • The attacker’s view: Learn how threat actors carry out their attacks.

  • The Security Admin’s View: Learn how to identify the indicators of compromise (IoC), rapidly respond, and mitigate these threats using Log360, a unified SIEM solution.

From documentation to a powerful defense toolkit  

What began as an internal initiative to document tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) of attacks has now evolved into a must-have playbook for IT admins and security professionals worldwide. The IT Security Under Attack page offers:

  • Visual attack flows: Step-by-step visuals decoding the anatomy of attacks like password spraying, ransomware, and other prevalent network threats.

  • Technical demonstrations: Watch real-world simulations of these attacks in action.

  • Proven solutions: Learn how Log360, our unified security platform, detects and responds to these threats.

Anatomy of an attack: Learn, watch, act  

  • Learn the TTPs that cybercriminals use to exploit vulnerabilities.
