Binance's Chief Security Officer, Jimmy Su, warned in July about the risks of fake programming tests that could lead to employee devices being compromised. This warning came months before Binance suffered a $6.3 billion loss due to a hacker attack. Su pointed out that attackers could lure employees into running malicious code by creating customized fake job opportunities, thereby stealing credentials and infiltrating the network. He emphasized that the steps involved in such technical assessments may appear legitimate, making it difficult for many antivirus software to detect anomalies.
