  • AI agents are now sending emails on your company's behalf. Proofpoint Secure Email Relay ensures those messages are governed with the same rigor as any other trusted business communication. How? 👉 By centralizing control of application-generated senders, strengthening domain trust, and supporting outbound protections such as DLP and encryption. A practical foundation for helping secure protected information before AI-agent email reaches its destination.

  • Last week, we partnered with the National Security Agency and other government agencies to publish research on Russia-aligned espionage actor #TA488’s abuse of a previously unknown #Zimbra mailserver vulnerability. 🚨 Today, we are following up with additional observations of the threat group’s exploitation of a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Outlook Web Access (OWA). This blog shares this update: https://lnkd.in/edcHTh3C The activity shows: • That TA488 has greatly improved its operational security measures • Is writing more subtle and capable malware • Targets a wide range of sectors but still prioritizes collecting gov't/defense intel TA488 is doubling down on “half-click” exploits, now with an infection chain purpose-built for persistent access inside OWA. ⚠️ Organizations should review and audit their Exchange permissions and revoke tokens for affected add-ins. Additional guidance is in our blog.

  • A new blog from Proofpoint AI threat researchers highlights how cybercriminals are incorporating AI tooling and generated material into attack chains. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/esGx3uA4 We continue to observe activity on underground criminal forums, suggesting that Indirect Prompt Injection (IDPI) could be increasingly leveraged as an intrusion vector. Our blog explores several malicious IDPI methods that are being actively developed into tools and frameworks and advertised for sale. ⤵️ • IDPI via email • IDPI via PDF • IDPI via calendar invite (disguising the prompt as a meeting agenda) • IDPI via malvertising (embedding prompts in webpages) Security teams should be prepared to encounter these techniques in the near future. Which IDPI method most concerns you?

    • The adversary generates an email with “white-on-white” text (hidden). The additional text (marked in red) is not immediately visible to the recipient, but will be interpreted by mail agent processing.
  • Cybersecurity's brightest minds are set to converge this fall at Proofpoint Protect 2026 in San Diego.
