Method of infection: Water-holing
OSIRIS used a Social Engineering method called “water holing” to attack German IP addresses.
How does water holing attack work?
- The victim enters the infected website.
- The website checks if the target IP is German.
- If it’s a German IP – few evasion techniques are used to bypass EDR
- And then the virus connects to its command server through the Darknet

Agentic AI – The Next Frontier in Social Engineering Attacks
🚨 Agentic AI Is Revolutionizing Social Engineering Threats
💡 Cybercriminals are using autonomous AI to craft highly personalized attacks that act and adapt without human intervention.
⚠️ These attacks mimic tone, context, and communication style, making them extremely convincing and difficult to detect.
🔍 The human factor remains the weakest link – one misstep can compromise entire networks.
🔥 AUMINT Trident simulates agentic AI attacks in real-world scenarios, providing insights to strengthen employee awareness and organizational resilience.
