Avast Threat Labs Q4 2022 Threat Report | Avast

The Avast Threat Labs Q4 2022 Threat Report observed a rise in social engineering attacks during the final quarter of 2022, including invoice and refund fraud, tech support scams, and others aimed at stealing money. Cybercriminals continued to engage in information theft and spying, with adware campaigns disguised as lottery offers used to collect personal information. Avast’s threat researchers also uncovered zero-day exploits in Google Chrome and Windows, which have since been fixed.
