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

The Silent Siege: How AI Deepfakes Are Targeting the Wealthy
🔐 High-Net-Worth Individuals Under Siege: The Rise of AI Deepfake Scams
Imagine receiving a call from your financial advisor, urging an urgent wire transfer. The voice is unmistakably theirs, the request plausible. But it’s a meticulously crafted deepfake, and your fortune is at stake.
In 2025, high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) are facing unprecedented cyber threats. Cybercriminals are leveraging advanced technologies like AI-generated deepfakes to impersonate trusted contacts, executing sophisticated social engineering attacks that traditional security measures often fail to detect.
Traditional cyber insurance policies, often add-ons to homeowner’s coverage, are ill-equipped to handle these evolving threats. They typically focus on identity theft and offer minimal protection against sophisticated AI-driven scams.
The financial impact is staggering. In 2024, consumers reported losses exceeding $12.5 billion to fraud, with imposter scams accounting for nearly $3 billion.
