Hiring Fraud: How Attackers Walk Through the Front Door of Your Workforce
DPRK operatives are now embedded inside Fortune 500 payroll systems, hired through standard recruiting pipelines using AI-assisted personas, fraudulent identities, and infrastructure designed to bypass every check HR was built to run.
How impersonation attacks succeed without fake content
Voice phishing is now the leading initial intrusion vector for cloud compromises and it’s routing around MFA through the help desk. Training doesn’t close the gap. Workforce identity verification does.

Four DPRK IT Workers Entered The Hiring Pipeline. Infrastructure-Layer Detection Stopped Them.
Four DPRK IT workers entered one hiring pipeline. Here’s the infrastructure-layer detection that stopped them before credentials were issued.
The Real-Time Impersonation Blind Spot
AI impersonation exploits real-time trust gaps traditional defenses miss. Workforce IDV verifies human authenticity in live interactions, blocking key threats fast.
Trust is the new attack vector. imper.ai starts here
Today, we’re launching imper.ai and are proud to finally share the work we have been building. For Anatoly, Rom, and me, this moment was shaped by our experience in offensive cyber. Attackers now find it easier to exploit trust than to discover a zero-day. It’s simpler to manipulate a conversation than to deploy malware. Modern […]
Phishing has moved on. Have your defenses?
For a long time, email was the center of gravity for social engineering defense. In fact, organizations built entire security programs around it. Phishing simulations, DMARC enforcement, link-scanning tools and layers of filtering that defined how risk was managed. And for a while, that approach worked. Email was where attackers lived, and the industry responded […]
The rise of fake help desk calls
A help desk agent answers an incoming call. On the other end, “Sara” sounds rushed, apologetic – and extremely plausible. She knows the internal project names. She references a recent outage.
