skynox7: Proxyjacking Edge Devices Into Residential Proxies

A proxyjacking campaign named skynox7 compromised 143 edge devices across 34 countries, converting them into residential proxies. The attack was discovered during a live GreyNoise product demonstration that unexpectedly triggered incident response activities.

Why it matters: Organizations operating edge devices and network infrastructure face direct compromise and misuse as proxy infrastructure; practitioners should investigate whether their edge deployments are affected and review proxy traffic patterns for unauthorized activity.
