💨 Abstract

North Korean hackers, known as Sapphire Sleet, are using fake Zoom updates to steal personal data from Apple users. They pose as job recruiters on LinkedIn, creating fake job ads and social media content to lure victims. Once the victim joins a Zoom call, their MacBook or iMac is infected with malware, allowing the hackers to steal data. Microsoft, which uncovered the scheme, says the goal is to test the security of MacOS rather than target specific individuals.
