The Rise of SMS as an Attack Vector and How SMS Firewalls Protect Against It

The Rise of SMS as an Attack Vector As mobile phones become ubiquitous communication devices, Short Message Service (SMS) has grown to become one of the most widely used messaging platforms globally. However, the open nature of SMS has also made it an attractive attack vector for cybercriminals. SMS is an inherently insecure channel that lacks end-to-end encryption and authentication. Threat actors are exploiting these weaknesses to execute large-scale SMS phishing and smishing campaigns. According to recent reports, SMS attacks increased by 700% in 2020 alone. Millions of users receive fraudulent texts each day, putting personal and financial data at risk. With nearly universal access to SMS, organizations need robust defenses to protect mobile users from this growing threat. How SMS Firewalls Mitigate SMS-based Attacks An SMS firewall sits between an organization's internal systems and the public telephone network to filter and monitor SMS traffic in real-time. It uses a variety of techniques to identify and block malicious or unauthorized SMS messages before they ever reach end users. SMS firewalls inspect the content, context, and patterns of incoming and outgoing text messages to identify signs of suspicious activity. They can analyze messages for malicious links, detect SMS spoofing, uncover bulk messaging patterns, and match messages against known phishing and smishing campaigns. This layered filtering approach protects users from a wide range of SMS-based attacks without disrupting legitimate business communications. When suspicious messages are detected, the SMS firewalls is able to take automatic actions to mitigate threats. Common responses include blocking messages, redirecting URLs to warn pages, scrubbing attachments, and appending risk warnings. Administrators also receive alerts about detected threats so they can take follow-up actions like blacklisting senders or configuring new rules. For high-risk situations, the SMS firewall can even suspend entire inbound or outbound messaging on the fly. This level of real-time monitoring and control gives security teams the tools needed to proactively shut down SMS-borne attacks before any damage occurs. A Holistic Defense Against Emerging SMS Threats Modern SMS firewalls go beyond basic filtering to offer multilayered protections against an ever-evolving threat landscape. As attackers tweak their tactics, the latest solutions can quickly adapt defenses. Machine learning models and behavioral analytics now supplement traditional techniques, allowing SMS firewalls to more accurately detect unknown threats and anomalous activity. Deep packet inspection also examines full SMS payloads and protocols to uncover threats hidden in unusual formats, encodings or signaling messages. Get more insights on SMS Firewall

Hunger Pangs series (True Love Bites) by Joy Demorra

In a world of dwindling hope, love has never mattered more...

Captain Nathan J. Northland had no idea what to expect when he returned home to Lorehaven injured from war, but it certainly wasn't to find himself posted on an island full of vampires. An island whose local vampire dandy lord causes Nathan to feel strange things he'd never felt before. Particularly about fangs.

When Vlad Blutstein agreed to hire Nathan as Captain of the Eyrie Guard, he hadn't been sure what to expect either, but it certainly hadn't been to fall in love with a disabled werewolf. However Vlad has fallen and fallen hard, and that's the problem.

Torn by their allegiances--to family, to duty, and the age-old enmity between vampires and werewolves--the pair find themselves in a difficult situation: to love where the heart wants or to follow where expectation demands.

The situation is complicated further when a mysterious and beguiling figure known only as Lady Ursula crashes into their lives, bringing with her dark omens of death, doom, and destruction in her wake.

And a desperate plea for help neither of them can ignore.

Thrown together in uncertain times and struggling to find their place amidst the rising human empire, the unlikely trio must decide how to face the coming darkness: united as one or divided and alone. One thing is for certain, none of them will ever be the same.

its okay to be a bit clingy, and to feel a little bit jealous

A week ago I thought I was drawing Korosu, and this bean took the spot instead 😹

Protocol is so silly. Even if he’s not looking for love, he wants you all to feel loved in your lives!

I adore this cutie pie platonically. He’s very fun to draw, but it’s both a blessing and a curse not having to draw hands, but still figuring out how he’d hold things 🙀

More of Sun and Moon dynamic in the Au I worked on a few years back. Got some motivations to work on an old sketch and finish it (I feel i could have done better, yet my phone can handle only so much of layers and heavy files)

For better quality, click the images.

Sun often draws or writes stuff so that Moon later on can read or see. It's a way for them to communicate since Moon is not responsive anymore due to the virus. However, sometimes, they manage to have a few sane conversations, even if they don't last much before the virus take over again.

For Sun, those chats are both hopeful (he believes there is a way to cure Moon) but also distressing, knowing these conversations are limited in time or who knows if it will be the last time he will ever be able to talk with Moon.

(Sun is affected too by the virus, yet he believes he took the hit better than Moon, which might be untrue)

Some drawings that Sun makes end up being shred when Moon is out of control. Sometimes, Moon mocks his counterpart harshly. This behavior and those comments hurt the solar animatronic, but Sun knows he has to ignore all of that because the real Moon, when present, clinges so much on whatever thing Sun gifts him.

☾ ☾ ☾ ☾ ☾ ☾ ☾ ☾

In the rare moment of clarity, free from the virus, Moon hides away in solitude, scared to hurt someone, and clinges on Sun's gifts, trying to remember the last time he got a normal chat with Sun or the last time he hadn't been used as a night security animatronic.

When his "mind" his clear, Moon also hides in very tight places. He doesn't like feeling like a beast in a cage, yet, at the same time, such places give him a sense of comfort and safety. It gives him the illusion that he won't be able to hurt anyone there.

He misses interacting with humans. He misses taking care of the kids and comforting them when they have nightmares, reading bedtime stories for them. He misses sharing conversations with Sun. He wants to go back to being a performer and not a "night guard."

The fairy lights are the only type of light he can handle without getting his eyes hurt. Their warm color also reminds him of Sun.
