CyberBrief Project
CyberBrief Project is an audio series that breaks down one creative cyber-attack technique in each episode.
Rather than covering routine threats, each episode focuses on clever methods that repurpose tools in unexpected ways.
Voiced by AI instructors, the series is designed to help listeners understand how attackers think, what they target, and how to spot threats with greater clarity.
This is valuable information for anyone in cybersecurity, especially defenders, and for anyone curious about how real-world cyberattacks start and unfold.

Multi‑Layer Redirect Phishing Technique
In this episode, we break down a clever phishing technique that hides malicious links behind multiple layers of trusted redirects.
By combining public link shorteners like Bitly with security services such as Proofpoint's link wrapping, attackers create a chain that looks safe at every step — until it leads to a fake Microsoft 365 login. Learn how this method works, why it fools both people and defenses, and what it teaches us about turning trust into camouflage.
