It seems early to speculate, but if this is related to the massive uptick in CVEs we've been seeing recently it feels like we're actively witnessing a corporate reckoning around security posture the likes of which has never occurred.
I'm not sure there will be corporate reckoning. Unless security breaches come with business impacting consequences, they will continue to ignore it and just pay out occasional class action lawsuit.
I agree for data loss and ransomware where the ransom is paid, ie economically driven attacks. I wouldn’t agree when the hack is designed to kill the business destructively and no economic gain is sought or intended.
The difference in attack methodology is trivial, from a threat actor perspective, imho.
- On October 14, 2026 (UTC), an external attacker gained unauthorized access to Zeabur's internal systems and some customer services. We began our emergency response as soon as we detected the unusual activity. We have confirmed that this incident affected a broader scope than the incident in late August...Having another security incident in such a short time has let down the people who trusted us. Protecting your services and data is our responsibility, and we have fallen short.

As a cyber person, I agree. The theater has met reality, and those who put in the work will have an easier time than those who just checked a box. Good luck to all actively responding.

Various users are reporting scam emails with full booking details.
Stay safe guys.
thankfully I already had frontier airlines marked as spam email, so this changes nothing for me.
Every interaction I've ever had with Frontier Airlines has been negative.
