Beware of Pig Butchering Scams! They lure you in with fake investments and promises of huge profits, but it's all a scheme to steal your money. Stay alert, do your research, and never trust unsolicited investment opportunities. Some tips to help avoid falling victim to pig butchering scams are: 1. Be cautious of unexpected contacts: Scammers often initiate contact through texts, social media messages, or dating apps, claiming it was a mistake. Be wary of unsolicited messages from strangers. 2. Watch for a slow build: Scammers will spend time building a relationship, sharing personal stories, and gaining your trust before introducing investment opportunities. 3. Beware of investment pitches: If the conversation shifts to investment opportunities, especially in cryptocurrency, be skeptical. Scammers often claim to have insider knowledge or connections to lucrative investments. 4. Verify credentials: Always verify the credentials of the person and the investment platform they recommend. Research the platform and check for reviews or complaints. 5. Avoid sharing personal information: Scammers may ask for personal or financial information. Do not share sensitive details with someone you've just met online. 6. Look for red flags: Be cautious if the person becomes overly friendly too soon, avoids video calls, or pressures you to invest quickly. 7. Do your own research: Independently research any investment opportunities and consult with a financial advisor before making any decisions. 8. Report suspicious activity: If you suspect you're being targeted by a scam, report it to the appropriate authorities and block the scammer. Protect yourself and share to spread awareness!? #FraudPrevention #StaySafeOnline #WeAreAlwaysInTheFight

U.S. Army Cyber Command and DARPA Evaluate Advanced Cyber Threat Detection Technologies! We're excited to share that the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), U.S. Army Cyber Command Technical Warfare Center, and Project Manager-Defensive Cyber Operations have successfully conducted an operational test of the Cyber Analytics for Network Defense and Response Options (CANDOR) platform. This marks a significant milestone in validating CANDOR’s readiness for deployment! CANDOR leverages cutting-edge containerization technology, enabling seamless integration and scalability across diverse infrastructures, from on-premises data centers to cloud-based platforms. This innovative platform ensures rapid deployment, easy updates, and consistent performance, making it a game-changer in cyber threat detection and response. LTC Nate Bastian, DARPA's program manager for CANDOR, highlighted the platform's flexibility and adaptability, stating, “Given Constellation’s objective to accelerate the transition of research and development to capability delivery, we were able to drastically shorten the design, development, and testing of CANDOR from months to weeks with consistent user integration with ARCYBER.” CANDOR is part of the Constellation program, a joint effort between DARPA and U.S. Cyber Command to expedite the delivery of cyber technologies from laboratory development to the cyber battlefield. This program aims to provide cyber operators with enhanced network monitoring and automated threat hunting capabilities. Stay tuned for more updates on our advancements in cybersecurity! https://lnkd.in/eBVjMg9v #CyberSecurity #DARPA #USArmyCyberCommand #OwnTheDomain #WeWinWithPeople

At her recent keynote at CyberTalks, Ms. Morgan Adamski, the Executive Director of U.S. Cyber Command, emphasized the critical role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in shaping the Global Threat Landscape. At U.S. Cyber Command, we recognize that cyberspace is a warfighting domain, technologically complex and constantly contested. Speed is paramount in outpacing adversaries, particularly those adversaries we cannot match in scale. When appropriately harnessed, AI can serve as an accelerator. U.S. Cyber Command is seizing the opportunity that AI offers. Our AI Roadmap is setting the foundation for faster adoption of AI to enhance the speed, scale, and precision of our cyberspace operations. Our AI Task Force, led by the Cyber National Mission Force, is the pointy end of the spear in implementing this robust plan. Their 90-day sprints explore applying AI within the context of operational execution in real-time. The Task Force’s partnership with Army Cyber Command on their PANOPTIC JUNCTION platform will enable scalable, continuous security monitoring of networks and platforms to detect adversary activity, malware, and anomalies at incredible speeds. But what truly sets U.S. Cyber Command apart is our talented people, who drive our ability to outpace adversaries. With increased budget controls and service-like authorities, U.S. Cyber Command is investing in building a formidable Joint Force for the future to address the toughest challenges in cyberspace. #USCYBERCOM #WeWinWithPeople #Cybersecurity #AI
