US government warns remote workers of ongoing vishing campaign

Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) issued joint advisory warning teleworkers of an ongoing vishing campaign. Vishing (also known as voice phishing) is a type of social engineering attack where the attackers impersonate a trusted entity during a voice call to manipulate their targets into revealing sensitive information. The FBI and CISA issued a joint advisory for teleworkers. The agencies said the attackers are on a very tight timeline given that they sold the stolen credentials very quickly after initially gaining access to companies’ networks.
