On February 24, 2021, GlobalSign will have to withdraw some intermediary GlobalSign certificates for compliance reasons. This affects, among others, all “PersonalSign certificates” issued before November 12, 2020 and expiring after February 24, 2021. The affected customers have already been informed about this process by GlobalSign via email. NoSpamProxy customers who obtain their S/MIME certificates from a GlobalSign EPKI must exchange the affected certificates by February 17.
In a joint operation, law enforcement agencies from Germany, the Netherlands, Ukraine, Lithuania, France, as well as England, Canada and the United States have smashed the infrastructure of the Emotet malware.

The “Security Insider Deep Dive” focuses on the new solution NoSpamProxy Cloud, presented by Stefan Cink. He takes an in-depth look at the new product.
The current threat situation is shaped by the trojan Emotet. A striking feature of cyber attacks is that the attack patterns vary rapidly. This makes it difficult to specifically detect Emotet threats at all levels.
The trend towards cloud-based IT services is unbroken. But not only that: entire solutions or IT infrastructures are no longerpremises but have migrated to the cloud. The field of email security is also undergoing radical change, with the result that some providers in Email Security sectorhave already announced that they will no longer offer on-premises solutions at all in the foreseeable future and will switch completely to cloud offerings.
In recent days, the security experts at NoSpamProxy have recorded a significant increase in the number of phishing attacks using the well-known URL shredder service bit.ly. Here the attackers use the well-known pattern of “hello spam”.
