⚠️ Rug pulls are now 54% of all crypto scams — 425,000+ detected
A token can have a rising chart, an active community, and polished marketing — and still be a rug pull waiting to execute. One hidden owner-side action and everything goes to zero.

🚨 24 billion credentials just surfaced in one of the largest leaks ever found.
Cybernews researchers found an exposed database this week: 8.3TB of infostealer logs, breach compilations, and credential dumps — sourced from over 30 criminal Telegram channels.
Plaintext passwords. Login URLs. Session cookies that bypass 2FA.
The database is offline. The Telegram channels are still posting new logs daily.
Full breakdown and what to do now → https://hashnode.com/@relayshieldsecurity
RelayShield monitors these channels in near real-time. If your credentials appear, you'll know within hours — not weeks.

Crypto security signals for developers — wallet risk, token honeypots, SIM swap detection, and more in one REST API.
🚨 $2.9M stolen from Polymarket — the signals were in stealer logs before a single line of malicious code fired.
A compromised third-party vendor pushed malicious JavaScript to Polymarket's frontend. Users were silently robbed while everything looked normal.
We mapped the full signal chain attackers leave behind before supply chain attacks execute and which monitoring calls catch each one:
→ Vendor credential exposure in infostealer archives
→ Service account & CI/CD token theft (NHI exposure)
→ Identity risk score elevation on the vendor domain
→ ATT&CK TTP T1195 — Supply Chain Compromise

RelayShield is now live on AWS Marketplace.
Our Threat Intelligence & Identity Security API is now available as a self-serve SaaS listing for any AWS customer — same intelligence pipeline that powers our identity protection product, now accessible directly through AWS procurement.
What's inside:
• 2M+ indicator IOC corpus across 20+ feed sources
• 37+ monitored criminal Telegram channels, surfacing threats 24–72 hours before public disclosure
• STIX/TAXII 2.1 and MISP feed export for direct SIEM/SOAR integration
• Correlated signals across breach exposure, infostealer logs, SIM-swap, and session hijacking
If your org already buys through AWS, this is now the fastest way to plug identity-layer threat intelligence into your existing stack.

Threat actors don't need to write new malware anymore. They just need $250/month.
Remus Stealer showed up in criminal marketplaces this spring — Google OAuth cookie restoration built in, meaning even after a victim changes their password, the attacker can regenerate access to their session. It's not novel code. It's Lumma's proven playbook, repackaged and resold as a subscription, three tiers, priced like SaaS.
We wrote up what it actually does, why "I changed my password" doesn't mean an incident is over, and what to actually check if you suspect compromise:

Remus Stealer: The New $250-a-Month Infostealer Renting Out Your Google Session
The threat intelligence company Flashpoint first spotted it for sale in criminal marketplaces in March 2026. By the time most security teams heard the name, it was already a working product with a price list.
Shipped: an AI agent on AWS Bedrock AgentCore autonomously found and paid for one of our threat-intel APIs through Coinbase's x402 Bazaar: real USDC, real on-chain settlement, zero custom payment code.
tx: 0x1cb95ce37d54201b4def745269c42790fdb9bc7255f102aa648cf6f91fab0e3a (Base)
23 RelayShield endpoints are now discoverable and payable by any AI agent on AWS or x402-compatible frameworks with no integration needed on their end. This is what "agentic attack surface" defense looks like when the defender is also agent-native.

Giving agent frameworks a threat-intel safety check: RelayShield's smolagents tools
A Blog post by relayshield on Hugging Face
🛡️ Update: RelayShield's agent security tools just went from 4 to 9 — direct response to community feedback on the original release.
New: oauth_watchlist, nhi_exposure, session_risk (grouped as one "agent authority" check), plus supply_chain and secret_scan. Every tool now returns a typed, explainable result instead of a plain string.

New research from the RelayShield team 🔍
We checked 24 well-known DeFi, prediction market, and fintech companies for lookalike domains which are the typosquat variants attackers register before launching phishing campaigns.
The number: 341 registered, resolving lookalikes across those 24 brands.
The alarming part: only 1 is currently flagged by public blocklists as active phishing. The rest sit unclassified. Some are the brands' own defensive registrations, but plenty are dormant infrastructure that hasn't been activated yet. Blocklists only catch domains after they're already being used.
We didn't stop at "is it registered": For every hit we also check registration age and TLS certificate issuance timing, which is the closest thing to an early-warning signal before a domain shows up on anyone's blocklist.

🛡️ New: a mandatory security gate for AI agents, not just an optional check.
Built on LangChain's wrap_tool_call middleware, it blocks an agent from connecting to an unfamiliar MCP server unless a security check clears first. Fails closed (never silently allows on error), 12 passing tests against the real framework.
