Preemptive cyber defense team releases list of 100+ high-value targets
RESTON, VA, UNITED STATES, January 27, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Silent Push, a leading preemptive cybersecurity vendor, has announced the discovery of an expansive phishing and vishing (voice phishing) campaign targeting Okta Single Sign-On (SSO) accounts across a diverse range of global industries.
Silent Push enterprise customers have access to its proprietary Indicators of Future Attack™ (IOFA™) feeds, which enable them to preemptively block malicious domains used by groups such as SLSH before attacks are fully launched.
Following recent reports from BleepingComputer and Okta about a sophisticated, live phishing panel, Silent Push researchers have been tracking a large-scale operation that mirrors the panel’s tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). While the threat group known as SLSH has not officially claimed responsibility, Silent Push intelligence strongly suggests the campaign aligns with the group’s established motives and technical signatures.
Who is SLSH?
SLSH (Scattered LAPSUS$ Hunters) is a formidable cybercriminal “supergroup” alliance that emerged in 2025. It represents a malicious merger of three notorious entities: Scattered Spider (specialists in social engineering), LAPSUS$ (experts in data extortion), and ShinyHunters (masters of data exfiltration).
Anatomy of the Attack
The campaign uses a “live” phishing panel, enabling threat actors to intercept credentials and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) tokens in real time. By utilizing vishing to manipulate employees, attackers can push new prompts to victims’ devices via the panel, effectively bypassing traditional security hurdles to gain unauthorized access to sensitive corporate data.

A Growing Threat Landscape
“This campaign demonstrates a high level of persistence and adaptability,” said Silent Push Senior Threat Analyst Zach Edwards. “The use of live interaction panels means that even organizations with MFA are vulnerable if their employees are successfully socially engineered. We expect the targeting list to evolve rapidly as the threat actors rotate through different sectors.”
Silent Push is currently monitoring these activities through its proprietary Indicator of Future Attack™ (IOFA™) feeds. This technology enables Silent Push to track the underlying infrastructure used by groups such as SLSH before attacks are fully launched.
