Kaspersky uncovers new cyberattack portal

Kaspersky warns of the exploitation of digital advertising systems to carry out cyberattacks, as the data collected through targeted ads is used to identify and track individuals. This allows attackers to compromise their devices without the need to click on malicious links. Reports indicate that this data can be exploited to gather highly precise intelligence, direct targeted attacks, including spyware, and it has recorded over 3.7 million redirect attempts to malicious sites during the first half of 2026, more than 1.6 million of which occurred within the Arabian Gulf. Kaspersky recommends updating security systems and adopting multi-layered strategies within organizations to mitigate these threats. This includes solutions for threat detection and endpoint response, as well as reviewing permissions and implementing tools to block malicious ads.
