Advanced Wazza Phishing Kit Targets Banking and Manufacturing Sectors

Security researchers have identified Wazza, an advanced phishing kit attacking organizations across banking, manufacturing, and government sectors. This kit incorporates built-in traffic filtering and session management to evade standard security defences before delivering deceptive login pages. These evasive capabilities make it significantly harder for traditional filters to spot stolen credential attempts.
