Not just UK. It’s a stupid term that organizations use in cybersecurity trainings but no one else uses.
It feels like one of those where the people that have expertise enough to name new things are not experts in naming things.
I encountered Quishing the other day - the inadvertent scanning of QR codes that take a browser to a malformed URL or site with malware embedded.
Back in my day, it was just called “being a bit dense”, especially as most cameras/QR readers will offer you a prompt to go to a website first.
Developers are notoriously bad at naming anything. Cybersecurity experts are generally developers.
Yeah, I had to do a security cert last year and it had a bunch of made up sounding crap like that.
