American Organizations Under Attack: Skyw4lker Device Code Phishing Campaign Exposed

Skyw4lker, a phishing campaign targeting U.S. organizations, leverages legitimate cloud services and authentication mechanisms to compromise corporate accounts while minimizing detectable traces. The campaign exploits trusted business workflows rather than relying on traditional credential theft methods.

Why it matters: U.S. business practitioners need to monitor for device code phishing attacks that abuse legitimate services and authentication flows, as these leave fewer indicators and bypass conventional credential-focused defenses.
