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 Executive Deepfake Crisis: When Trust Becomes the Weakest Link
🎭 Deepfake CEOs: The New Corporate Cyber Threat
⚡ Imagine a video call from your CEO instructing an urgent wire transfer.
⚡ The face, the voice, the mannerisms – all perfect. But it is not your CEO.
⚡ AI-driven deepfakes are now the fastest-growing weapon in social engineering, making fraud nearly indistinguishable from real leadership.
⚡ The result? Not just financial losses but eroded trust inside the organization. Employees hesitate, doubting who to believe – a ripple effect that weakens culture and confidence.
⚡ Security tools cannot stop this. Firewalls and antivirus don’t recognize a cloned voice or face. The defense must come from human awareness.
⚡ AUMINT.io’s Trident platform builds resilience by simulating these scenarios, training teams to spot manipulation and apply verification before it is too late.
