Kaspersky’s Digital Footprint Intelligence team analyzed Telegram channels and found a significant increase in cybercriminal activity on the platform.
Cybercriminals use Telegram for fraud schemes, distributing leaked databases, and trading criminal services like document forging and DDoS attacks. The volume of such posts surged by 53% in May-June 2024 compared to the previous year.
The channel’s popularity, perceived security, and ease of community creation attract cybercriminals, despite their generally lower technical expertise compared to dark web users.
Additionally, hacktivists use the channel to incite DDoS attacks and release stolen data. Kaspersky published a playbook to help enterprises mitigate these cyber risks.
