Risky Bulletin: Russian hackers adopt the fake job interview tactics

Ukraine's CERT has identified a campaign by UAC-0145, a sub-group of the GRU-linked Sandworm group, targeting system administrators and IT professionals in Ukraine since May through fake job interview lures. The operation delivers malware via fraudulent hiring pitches and remains active.

Why it matters: System administrators and IT staff in Ukraine face immediate risk from credential theft and malware infection through convincing social engineering; organizations should brief technical staff on verification protocols for recruitment inquiries.
