This is the final installment in a blog series where we cover topics from our Wisdom 2023 sessions. In each blog, we have explored creative techniques for inspiring engagement in security awareness and building a strong security culture. In the first article, we covered how to personalize and invigorate your curriculum for your users using threat intelligence. Then, last week we learned about impactful ways to keep users and security practitioners engaged in continuous learning. Security teams have long believed that people who take risky actions lack security awareness. So, when users fail trainings or phishing assessments, they assign them more trainings and assessments in the hopes that they will improve. But our recent survey found that the majority of users who took risky action in the past tend to bypass security guidelines on purpose. Given this finding, it would seem that more training alone will do little to help change user behavior. At our annual customer conference, 2023 Proofpoint Protect, our customer panelists delved deep into the top behaviors that increase risk for companies. They also discussed the reasons that training alone is not as effective as people expect it to be. And they shared various ways to motivate employees to prioritize security and take a holistic approach to reducing people risk. Let\'s look at some of their key insights and advice. 3 types of users represent the biggest risk People remain attackers\' primary target. Everyone could pose risk to a business, but some users tend to be a higher risk than others. Our panelists called out the following types of users who require extra attention or could use more help or communication: Click-happy users. Email remains the number one threat vector, and attackers rely heavily on social engineering tactics to target people. So, click-happy users can pose a higher risk to businesses even if they don\'t have access to critical data or systems. Negligent users. These employees believe security has nothing to do with them. They see it as someone else\'s job. And they don\'t think they play a role in securing the business other than to complete mandatory training assigned to them. Frustrated users. These employees view security as a barrier. They overlook the importance of following security best practices and try to go around security controls to meet other objectives. Think outside the box to identify your people risk The most common ways to identify vulnerable users include conducting a phishing simulation and a knowledge assessment. Our customers told us they went beyond phishing tests and used threat intelligence to better identify risky users and quantify people risk. They talked about using Very Attacked People™ (VAPs) insights derived from the Proofpoint Aegis threat protection platform to uncover their most attacked users and top clickers. They also reviewed users who repeatedly failed phishing tests, and those who have business privileges to access sensitive data. Our panelists shared how they factored in the results from gamified training and survey tools to enrich the people risk score. Measuring employees\' attitudes toward security can help security teams get an idea of cultural shift. Nandita Bery, our panelist from Equinix, went above and beyond to connect with the security operations team to track user actions blocked by each security control and factor those security events into individuals\' risk scores. (There are tools in the market to generate user risk scores based on specific user behavior. Social media scraping tools and Proofpoint Nexus People Risk Explorer are examples.) The key is to think outside of the box because there are more effective and meaningful ways to identify and quantify people risk than tracking the training completion rate. Motivate employees by making security easy and personal “It\'s easy for security people to forget that our colleagues have a day job that isn\'t security. If security is perceived as a barrier to that, it\'s going to b | Tool Threat | ★★ | |

AT&T does not adopt or endorse any of the views, positions, or information provided by the author in this article. In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, containerized microservices have become the lifeblood of application development and deployment. Resembling miniature virtual machines, these entities enable efficient code execution in any environment, be it an on-premises server, a public cloud, or even a laptop. This paradigm eliminates the criteria of platform compatibility and library dependency from the DevOps equation. As organizations embrace the benefits of scalability and flexibility offered by containerization, they must also take up the security challenges intrinsic to this software architecture approach. This article highlights key threats to container infrastructure, provides insights into relevant security strategies, and emphasizes the shared responsibility of safeguarding containerized applications within a company. Understanding the importance of containers for cloud-native applications Containers play a pivotal role in streamlining and accelerating the development process. Serving as the building blocks of cloud-native applications, they are deeply intertwined with four pillars of software engineering: the DevOps paradigm, CI/CD pipeline, microservice architecture, and frictionless integration with orchestration tools. Orchestration tools form the backbone of container ecosystems, providing vital functionalities such as load balancing, fault tolerance, centralized management, and seamless system scaling. Orchestration can be realized through diverse approaches, including cloud provider services, self-deployed Kubernetes clusters, container management systems tailored for developers, and container management systems prioritizing user-friendliness. The container threat landscape According to recent findings of Sysdig, a company specializing in cloud security, a whopping 87% of container images have high-impact or critical vulnerabilities. While 85% of these flaws have a fix available, they can’t be exploited because the hosting containers aren’t in use. That said, many organizations run into difficulties prioritizing the patches. Rather than harden the protections of the 15% of entities exposed at runtime, security teams waste their time and resources on loopholes that pose no risk. One way or another, addressing these vulnerabilities requires the fortification of the underlying infrastructure. Apart from configuring orchestration systems properly, it’s crucial to establish a well-thought-out set of access permissions for Docker nodes or Kubernetes. Additionally, the security of containers hinges on the integrity of the images used for their construction. Guarding containers throughout the product life cycle A container\'s journey encompasses three principal stages. The initial phase involves constructing the container and subjecting it to comprehensive functional and load tests. Subsequently, the container is stored in the image registry, awaiting its moment of execution. The third stage, container runtime, occurs when the container is launched and operates as intended. Early identification of vulnerabilities is vital, and this is where the shift-left security principle plays a role. It encourages an intensified focus on security from the nascent stages of the product life cycle, encompassing the design and requirements gathering phases. By incorporating automated security checks within the CI/CD pipeline, developers can detect security issues early and minimize the chance of security gap | Tool Vulnerability Threat Cloud | Uber | ★★★ |

2023-10-26 06:00:18 | Break the Attack Chain with Identity Threat Protection (lien direct) | “The attacker only has to be right once. Defenders have to get it right every time.” This well-known saying has shaped countless cybersecurity strategies. The belief is that a single compromise of our defenses can lead to a catastrophic outcome. As new risks emerge and attackers develop tactics to evade controls, defenders face the daunting task of protecting an ever-expanding array of connected identities. Many companies now embrace resilience strategies, accepting that an incident is inevitable - “It\'s not a matter of if, but when.” That\'s because defenders have been fixated on the impossible task of protecting everything within the business. But a new industry approach to cyber defense in recent years has emerged that points the path towards a better way. Instead of protecting everything, defenders should aim to neutralize attackers\' tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs), which are hard to replace. This disrupts the completion of the attack chain. What is the attack chain? And how does identity threat protection disrupt it? That\'s what we\'re here to discuss. The enduring relevance of the attack chain No other concept has captured the essence of successful cyber attacks like the attack chain (aka the “cyber kill chain”), which was developed by Lockheed Martin in 2011. Even 12 years later, the attack chain remains relevant, while defenders struggle to prevent the most impactful incidents. While cyber criminals don\'t follow the same steps every time, the basic phases of an attack are pretty much always the same: Steps in the cyber attack chain. The challenge of initial compromise The first phase in the attack chain is the initial compromise. Modern cyber criminals use an array of tactics to infiltrate companies and wreak havoc on their systems, from BEC attacks to cloud account takeovers and ransomware incidents. One trend is to exploit trusted third-party relationships to compromise companies through their suppliers. What seems like an innocuous initial email can escalate into a full-scale compromise with great speed. Once attackers gain unrestricted access to a company\'s domain, they can infiltrate email accounts to commit fraudulent activities. One alarming twist to credential phishing emails is that they can evade detection. They leave behind no traces of compromise or malware. Even with the rise of multifactor authentication (MFA), these attacks continue to surge. Once accounts are compromised through a credential phishing email or a vulnerable remote desktop session, businesses face the next phase of the attack chain: privileged escalation and lateral movement within their networks. Next phase: privilege escalation and lateral movement This is the middle of the attack chain. And it\'s where threat actors try to breach a company\'s defenses. Often, they do this by compromising the identities of employees, contractors, service providers or edge devices. Their main goal is to use this initial access to elevate their privileges, typically targeting Active Directory (AD). AD, which many businesses around the world use, is susceptible to compromise. It can provide attackers with unparalleled control over a company\'s computing infrastructure. With this access, they can engage in lateral movement and spread malware across the business, causing more harm. Finally, the risk of data loss Attackers don\'t rely on a single stroke of luck. Their success hinges on a series of precise maneuvers. Monetary gains through data exfiltration are often their objective. And once they have navigated the intricate web of identities, they can target valuable data and orchestrate data theft operations. Defenders must disrupt this chain of events to prevent the loss of sensitive data, like intellectual property or customer identifiable data. Then, they can gain the upper hand and steer the course of cybersecurity in their favor. The three best opportunities to break the attack chain.

#### Description QuasarRAT, also known as CinaRAT or Yggdrasil, is a lightweight remote administration tool written in C#. This tool is openly accessible as a GitHub project. This tool is capable of various functions such as gathering system data, running applications, transferring files, recording keystrokes, taking screenshots or camera captures, recovering system passwords, and overseeing operations like File Manager, Startup Manager, Remote Desktop, and executing shell commands. In the initial phase, the attacker harnesses "ctfmon.exe," which is an authentic Microsoft file. By doing so, they load a malicious DLL which, to the untrained eye, would seem benign because of its disguised name. Upon execution of the "ctfmon.exe" binary, the stage is set as the attacker acquires a \'stage 1\' payload. This initial payload is crucial, acting as the gateway for the subsequent malicious actions. At this juncture, the threat actor brings into play the "calc.exe" file, which in this context, isn\'t just a simple calculator application. Alongside "calc.exe," the malicious DLL is also set into motion. On executing "calc.exe," the malicious DLL is triggered. This action culminates in the infiltration of the "QuasarRAT" payload into the computer\'s memory, reflecting the attacker\'s adeptness at circumventing security mechanisms. #### Reference URL(s) 1. https://www.uptycs.com/blog/quasar-rat #### Publication Date October 24, 2023 #### Author(s) Tejaswini Sandapolla |

The content of this post is solely the responsibility of the author. AT&T does not adopt or endorse any of the views, positions, or information provided by the author in this article. As we mark another Cybersecurity Awareness Month, it\'s essential to recognize that this is more than a calendar event; it\'s a wake-up call for proactive vigilance in the digital age. In an environment rife with technological threats, the cornerstone of robust cybersecurity isn\'t just advanced systems and firewalls—it\'s informed and empowered individuals. There are three most important insights organizations can learn before implementing any cybersecurity awareness-raising campaign: More than a reminder: Each October, organizations and individuals worldwide pause to reflect on the ever-evolving digital cybersecurity. But it’s not just about ticking off a box or recognizing threats. The month serves as an empowering signal, urging everyone, from top-tier management to the newest intern, to equip themselves with knowledge and best practices. The central role of individuals: While the technological landscape continually shifts, one factor remains constant—the human element. Properly informed individuals stand as the first and often most crucial line of defense against a myriad of cyber threats. From awareness to action: True cybersecurity is about transitioning from passive recognition to active defense. Cybersecurity Awareness Month lays the foundation, but the responsibility is on each of us to translate that knowledge into tangible actions. This involves understanding the risks inherent in the digital space and cultivating a culture of security within our spheres of influence. When diving deeper into the various digital vulnerabilities in this article, always remember that every individual, armed with awareness - can make a difference. Cultivating a culture of cybersecurity awareness Creating a culture where security awareness is a top priority demands actionable steps, consistent reinforcement, and collective responsibility. Here\'s how: Security-first leadership—Leading by example Leaders play a pivotal role in shaping organizational culture. When top management emphasizes cybersecurity, it cascades down the ranks, instilling a security-first mindset across all tiers. Security as a shared responsibility—Beyond the IT department Security isn\'t a realm exclusive to the IT department. Every employee, irrespective of their role, has a stake in maintaining a secure digital environment. Promoting this understanding can foster collective ownership, ensuring that everyone feels responsible for and participates in the company\'s security efforts. Feedback-driven fortifications—Sharpening defense with dialogue Open channels of communication can be powerful tools for refining security strategies. A two-way dialogue encourages employees to voice concerns and observations, resulting in a dynamic defense system that\'s constantly refined based on ground realities. Learning from the landscape—Stay updated, stay safe The cyber landscape is in flux, shaped by emerging technologies and evolving threats. Organizations can preemptively adjust strategies by actively monitoring global trends and incidents, ensuring they\'re always a step ahead. Architecting a bespoke security culture—Beyond templates Organizations are as unique as fingerprints. A one-size-fits-all approach may not capture the specific needs of a particular enterprise. Tailoring security measures to an organization\'s unique characteristics ensures precision protection, leaving no blind spots. Maintaining awareness—The marathon mindset Cybersecurity isn\'t about sprinting through a checklist; it\'s a marathon of maintaining awareness. With | Tool Vulnerability | ★★★ | |

This is the second installment of a three-part blog series where we cover topics from our Wisdom 2023 sessions. In each blog, we explore creative techniques for inspiring engagement in security awareness and building a strong security culture. In the first article, we covered how to personalize and invigorate your curriculum for your users using threat intelligence. Every October, security professionals use Cybersecurity Awareness Month to promote best practices and the shared responsibility for behaving safely. But to stay safe, you have to stay vigilant. And that requires people to constantly be engaged. So in our second Wisdom session, we explored ways to inspire engagement in security awareness for both users and practitioners. Typically, when we\'re talking about engagement, we mean end users-and we all know how challenging it is to keep them engaged. In our 2023 State of the Phish Report, for instance, over 30% said security isn\'t priority at work for them. That\'s why in this session we discussed three ways to motivate and inspire your employees. We also addressed a group of people who are typically overlooked-security awareness practitioners! When you push yourself to find enthusiasm in security awareness, your attitude can have a cascading effect on how your employees engage. So we also covered three ways to find inspiration. This article recaps the insights we gained in conversation with Janet Roberts, former SVP/global head of security education and awareness at Zurich Insurance Company, and Brian Roberts (no relation), solution manager of information security awareness for Campbell\'s Soup Company. (Quotes have been lightly edited for clarity.) 3 impactful ways to engage employees If you\'re looking for creative ways to motivate and inspire your employees, Janet Roberts and Brian Roberts have some tips: 1: Build and nurture an ambassador program At Zurich, Janet launched an ambassador program that is now used by 32 of the company\'s teams around the globe. Every month, her security awareness team creates a toolkit to distribute “grass roots,” always covering one simple topic that is customizable to the ambassadors\' culture, language and policies. Zurich has five regional CISOs and a global CISO, each of whom decide the strategy for delivering this material within their region. in their region. When it comes to measuring program outcomes, metrics will most likely be qualitative not quantitative because when it\'s done right it will be highly tailored to people and places. According to Janet, “[An ambassador] program helps you to meet people where they go for their daily information. Make sure you map it to the structure of your company…and [make sure] your ambassadors are working within their regional strategy or country strategy.” Brian agreed the ambassador program should target a local audience. At Campbell\'s, his security awareness team reaches both inside and outside the organization to cultivate a group of volunteers. Brian\'s advice is to start small, create a volunteer pathway, and build each relationship as you scale up. “The more you make that personal, the more you drive an organization that will create change. When you see ambassadors sharing stuff they did in their communities and at home, that\'s when you know it\'s connecting.” When asked by attendees during the Q&A about how to get those first volunteers, Brian said, “Be very open so people feel you\'re approachable and they can bring personal stories to you. That\'s where you find that first pool of people that you can then send out to find more people.” Janet added that at Zurich, “We started with people whose job was to lower the human risk factor, like security officers and service executives. From there, they added their own connections and built their teams.” 2: Create a people-focused messaging strategy In this part of the session, our panelists shared ideas about how to build effective messaging and tailor the content so that everyone can und | Tool Threat | ★★ | |

In September 2023, cybercriminals launched an extensive ransomware attack that disrupted several major businesses in the Las Vegas Casino Business/District. The attack shook the city and stopped consumer goods and services for several hours. The attack influenced security, visitor services, and financial activities. Businesses lost money and long-term reputational risks ensued. Increasing op tempo A company can keep running after a disruption if it has a comprehensive Business Continuity Plan (BCP) that includes risk assessments, Business Impact Assessments (BIAs), and recovery strategies. A BCP is needed to minimize risk apprehensions, reduce financial loss, and maintain continuous business operations. A business impact analysis (BIA) must be part of Business Continuity Plans (BCPs). The plan sets recovery time and point goals, ranks the most important processes, and figures out how delays will affect business functions. BIAs help organizations figure out what tools and plans they need for recovery. Disaster Recovery Plans, or DRPs, lay out how a business will handle and rebound from a disaster. It includes tools for recovering systems, data, and infrastructure. A complete, well-tested DRP is necessary to keep problems to a minimum and get services back up and running quickly. To stay safe from cyber threats, businesses need to put their operating security footprint at the top of their list of priorities. In this way, networks, systems, apps, and data are kept safe. Data breaches and unauthorized access are less likely to happen with firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and encryption methods. Rearview The ransomware attack on the Las Vegas Casino Business/District in September 2023 shows that current risk management methods need to be looked at and updated. These steps cut down on operational disruptions, keep customer goods and services safe, and speed up the recovery of mission-critical systems. Being operationally ready is important for protecting your business and preparing for the unexpected. The most common way for threat players to take over a company\'s resources, assets, and people is through ransomware attacks. Recent statistics show that strong holding the most sought-after security principles can disrupt present business operations: The State of Ransomware Report in the US says that the average ransomware attack costs $8.1 million and takes 287 days to fix (Emsisoft, 2021). The number of ransom payments made by victims rose by 311% in 2020 (Crypto Crime Report, 2021). Going forward Ransomware attacks affect people all over the world, resulting in huge financial losses costs - compiled worldwide topping $20 billion in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has given hackers new avenues and threat vectors to hack, crack, and exploit. It is imperative for businesses to strengthen the home front to gain home-field advantage against cyber threat actors.

2023-10-19 10:00:00 | Pourquoi les organisations ne détectent-elles pas les menaces de cybersécurité? Why are organizations failing to detect cybersecurity threats? (lien direct) |
The content of this post is solely the responsibility of the author. AT&T does not adopt or endorse any of the views, positions, or information provided by the author in this article. With the changing security landscape, the most daunting task for the CISO and CIO is to fight an ongoing battle against hackers and cybercriminals. Bad actors stay ahead of the defenders and are always looking to find new vulnerabilities and loopholes to exploit and enter the business network. Failing to address these threats promptly can have catastrophic consequences for the organization. A survey finds that, on average, it takes more than five months to detect and remediate cyber threats. This is a significant amount of time, as a delayed response to cyber threats can result in a possible cyber-attack. One can never forget the devastating impacts of the Equifax breach in 2017 and the Target breach in 2013 due to delayed detection and response. This is concerning and highlights the need for proactive cybersecurity measures to detect and mitigate rising cyber threats. Amidst this, it\'s also crucial to look into why it is challenging to detect cyber threats. Why do organizations fail to detect cyber threats? Security teams are dealing with more cyber threats than before. A report also confirmed that global cyber attacks increased by 38% in 2022 compared to the previous year. The increasing number and complexity of cyber-attacks make it challenging for organizations to detect them. Hackers use sophisticated techniques to bypass security systems and solutions - like zero-day vulnerabilities, phishing attacks, business email compromises (BEC), supply chain attacks, and Internet of Things (IoT) attacks. Some organizations are unaware of the latest cyber threat trends and lack the skills and resources to detect them. For instance, hackers offer professional services like ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) to launch ransomware attacks. Surprisingly, two out of three ransomware attacks are facilitated by the RaaS setup, but still, companies fail to have a defensive strategy against them. Enterprises relying on legacy devices and outdated software programs are no longer effective at recognizing certain malicious activities, leaving the network vulnerable to potential threats. Additionally, the lack of trained staff, insider threats, and human errors are other reasons why many organizations suffer at the hands of threat actors. Besides this, much of the company\'s data is hidden as dark data. As the defensive teams and employees may be unaware of it, the hackers take complete advantage of dark data and either replicate it or use it to fulfill their malicious intentions. Moreover, cloud migration has rapidly increased in recent years, putting cybersecurity at significant risk. The complexity of the cloud environments, poorly secured remote and hybrid work environments, and sharing security responsibilities between cloud service providers and clients have complicated the situation. In addition, cloud vulnerabilities, which have risen to 194% from the previous year, have highlighted the need for organizations to look out for ways to strengthen their security infrastructure.

2023-10-17 10:00:00 | Réévaluer les risques dans l'âge de l'intelligence artificielle Re-evaluating risk in the artificial intelligence age (lien direct) |
Introduction It is common knowledge that when it comes to cybersecurity, there is no one-size-fits all definition of risk, nor is there a place for static plans. New technologies are created, new vulnerabilities discovered, and more attackers appear on the horizon. Most recently the appearance of advanced language models such as ChatGPT have taken this concept and turned the dial up to eleven. These AI tools are capable of creating targeted malware with no technical training required and can even walk you through how to use them. While official tools have safeguards in place (with more being added as users find new ways to circumvent them) that reduce or prevent them being abused, there are several dark web offerings that are happy to fill the void. Enterprising individuals have created tools that are specifically trained on malware data and are capable of supporting other attacks such as phishing or email-compromises. Re-evaluating risk While risk should always be regularly evaluated it is important to identify when significant technological shifts materially impact the risk landscape. Whether it is the proliferation of mobile devices in the workplace or easy access to internet-connected devices with minimal security (to name a few of the more recent developments) there are times when organizations need to completely reassess their risk profile. Vulnerabilities unlikely to be exploited yesterday may suddenly be the new best-in-breed attack vector today. There are numerous ways to evaluate, prioritize, and address risks as they are discovered which vary between organizations, industries, and personal preferences. At the most basic level, risks are evaluated by multiplying the likelihood and impact of any given event. These factors may be determined through numerous methods, and may be affected by countless elements including: Geography Industry Motivation of attackers Skill of attackers Cost of equipment Maturity of the target’s security program In this case, the advent of tools like ChatGPT greatly reduce the barrier to entry or the “skill” needed for a malicious actor to execute an attack. Sophisticated, targeted, attacks can be created in minutes with minimal effort from the attacker. Organizations that were previously safe due to their size, profile, or industry, now may be targeted simply because it is easy to do so. This means all previously established risk profiles are now out of date and do not accurately reflect the new environment businesses find themselves operating in. Even businesses that have a robust risk management process and mature program may find themselves struggling to adapt to this new reality. Recommendations While there is no one-size-fits-all solution, there are some actions businesses can take that will likely be effective. First, the business should conduct an immediate assessment and analysis of their currently identified risks. Next, the business should assess whether any of these risks could be reasonably combined (also known as aggregated) in a way that materially changes their likelihood or impact. Finally, the business must ensure their executive teams are aware of the changes to the businesses risk profile and consider amending the organization’s existing risk appetite and tolerances. Risk assessment & analysis It is important to begin by reassessing the current state of risk within the organization. As noted earlier, risks or attacks that were previously considered unlikely may now be only a few clicks from being deployed in mass. The organization should walk through their risk register, if one exists, and evaluate all identified risks. This may be time consuming, and the organization should of course prioritize critical and high risks first, but it is important to ensure the business has the information they need to effectively address risks.

Key Takeaways Proofpoint is tracking multiple different threat clusters that use similar themes related to fake browser updates. Fake browser updates abuse end user trust with compromised websites and a lure customized to the user\'s browser to legitimize the update and fool users into clicking. Threat actors do not send emails to share the compromised websites. The threat is only in the browser and can be initiated by a click from a legitimate and expected email, social media site, search engine query, or even just navigating to the compromised site. The different campaigns use similar lures, but different payloads. It is important to identify which campaign and malware cluster the threat belongs to help guide defender response. Overview Proofpoint is currently tracking at least four distinct threat clusters that use fake browser updates to distribute malware. Fake browser updates refer to compromised websites that display what appears to be a notification from the browser developer such as Chrome, Firefox, or Edge, informing them that their browser software needs to be updated. When a user clicks on the link, they do not download a legitimate browser update but rather harmful malware. Based on our research, TA569 has used fake browser updates for over five years to deliver SocGholish malware, but recently other threat actors have been copying the lure theme. Each threat actor uses their own methods to deliver the lure and payload, but the theme takes advantage of the same social engineering tactics. The use of fake browser updates is unique because it abuses the trust end users place in both their browser and the known sites that they visit. Threat actors that control the fake browser updates use JavaScript or HTML injected code that directs traffic to a domain they control, which can potentially overwrite the webpage with a browser update lure specific to the web browser that the potential victim uses. A malicious payload will then automatically download, or the user will receive a prompt to download a “browser update,” which will deliver the payload. Fake browser update lure and effectiveness The fake browser update lures are effective because threat actors are using an end-user\'s security training against them. In security awareness training, users are told to only accept updates or click on links from known and trusted sites, or individuals, and to verify sites are legitimate. The fake browser updates abuse this training because they compromise trusted sites and use JavaScript requests to quietly make checks in the background and overwrite the existing, website with a browser update lure. To an end user, it still appears to be the same website they were intending to visit and is now asking them to update their browser. Proofpoint has not identified threat actors directly sending emails containing malicious links, but, due to the nature of the threat, compromised URLs are observed in email traffic in a variety of ways. They are seen in normal email traffic by regular end users who are unaware of the compromised websites, in monitoring emails such as Google alerts, or in mass automated email campaigns like those distributing newsletters. This creates a situation where these emails are considered to be malicious during the time the site is compromised. Organizations should not treat the fake browser update threats as only an email problem, as end users could visit the site from another source, such as a search engine, social media site, or simply navigate to the site directly and receive the lure and potentially download the malicious payload. Each campaign uniquely filters traffic to hide from researchers and delay discovery, but all the methods are effective at filtering. While this may reduce the potential spread of malicious payloads, it enables actors to maintain their access to the compromised sites for longer periods of time. This can complicate the response, because with the multiple campaigns and changing payloads, responders must take time to | Malware Tool Threat Studies | ★★★★ | |

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, the battle between defenders and attackers has historically been marked by an asymmetrical relationship. Within the cybersecurity realm, asymmetry has characterized the relationship between those safeguarding digital assets and those seeking to exploit vulnerabilities. Even within this context, where attackers are typically at a resource disadvantage, data breaches have continued to rise year after year as cyber threats adapt and evolve and utilize asymmetric tactics to their advantage. These include technologies and tactics such as artificial intelligence (AI), and advanced social engineering tools. To effectively combat these threats, companies must rethink their security strategies, concentrating their scarce resources more efficiently and effectively through the concept of force multiplication. Asymmetrical threats, in the world of cybersecurity, can be summed up as the inherent disparity between adversaries and the tactics employed by the weaker party to neutralize the strengths of the stronger one. The utilization of AI and similar tools further erodes the perceived advantages that organizations believe they gain through increased spending on sophisticated security measures. Recent data from InfoSecurity Magazine, referencing the 2023 Checkpoint study, reveals a disconcerting trend: global cyberattacks increased by 7% between Q1 2022 and Q1 2023. While not significant at first blush, a deeper analysis reveals a more disturbing trend specifically that of the use of AI. AI\'s malicious deployment is exemplified in the following quote from their research: "...we have witnessed several sophisticated campaigns from cyber-criminals who are finding ways to weaponize legitimate tools for malicious gains." Furthermore, the report highlights: "Recent examples include using ChatGPT for code generation that can help less-skilled threat actors effortlessly launch cyberattacks." As threat actors continue to employ asymmetrical strategies to render organizations\' substantial and ever-increasing security investments less effective, organizations must adapt to address this evolving threat landscape. Arguably, one of the most effective methods to confront threat adaptation and asymmetric tactics is through the concept of force multiplication, which enhances relative effectiveness with fewer resources consumed thereby increasing the efficiency of the security dollar. Efficiency, in the context of cybersecurity, refers to achieving the greatest cumulative effect of cybersecurity efforts with the lowest possible expenditure of resources, including time, effort, and costs. While the concept of efficiency may seem straightforward, applying complex technological and human resources effectively and in an efficient manner in complex domains like security demands more than mere calculations. This subject has been studied, modeled, and debated within the military community for centuries.

Modern threats like phishing, ransomware and data breaches cast a dark cloud over businesses across sectors. For most bad actors, the goal of an attack is financial. As Proofpoint noted in the 2023 State of the Phish report, 30% of businesses that endured a successful attack experienced a direct monetary loss, such as a fraudulent invoice, wire transfer or payroll redirection. That is an increase of 76% year over year. A cyber insurance policy can protect you from the financial losses caused by cybersecurity incidents and data breaches. And when businesses pair cyber insurance with the prowess of Proofpoint solutions, they can build a formidable defense strategy. In this blog, we\'ll go over some best practices for choosing and managing you cyber insurance policy so you can protect yourself from risk. Actions that cyber criminals monetize Our research for the latest State of the Phish report shows that the three most common consequences of a cyber attack are: Data breach (44%) Ransomware infection (43%) Account compromise (36%) Notably, cyber criminals can monetize all these actions. Most common results of successful phishing attacks. (Source: 2023 State of the Phish report from Proofpoint.) Just one cybersecurity incident can cost tens of thousands of dollars. So, it\'s easy to understand why insurers see these incidents as too costly to cover in their general liability policies. But with cyber insurance, your business has a tool to help manage risk. Why cyber insurance can be a vital financial safety net While firewalls and endpoint protections remain vital, the truth is that a level of residual risk always exists. No matter how fortified your security is, breaches can happen due to ingenious adversaries, human error or just unfortunate circumstances. This is where cyber insurance comes to the rescue. It is the safety net that catches your business when your defenses fall short. It can help you cover costs like ransomware payments, legal fees, and costs associated with crisis management and revenue loss. In the graphic below, we can see how often cyber insurance covered losses from ransomware attacks among those surveyed for our 2023 State of the Phish report. Nearly three-quarters (73%) of businesses with cyber insurance policies said their insurers paid at least some of their ransomware-related losses. (Source: 2023 State of the Phish report from Proofpoint.) Cyber insurance best practices Now that we\'ve covered why cyber insurance can be a vital financial safety net, let\'s look at some essential best practices for cyber insurance. These measures can help your business become more effective at managing cybersecurity risks. Find an expert and ask for support and guidance. Specialized brokers are your allies in the intricate world of cyber insurance. Insurers vary in risk appetite, claim acceptance rates and expertise. Brokers have an in-depth grasp of this landscape, and they will assess your options meticulously. They will help ensure that the policy you choose is the right fit for your industry, size, risk profile and more. Be prepared for a rigorous assessment. Today, insurers want more insight into your company\'s security protocols and controls before they issue a cyber insurance policy. So preparedness is key. Be ready to provide evidence, like external audits, penetration test results and compliance certifications to insurers. If you implement access controls that insurers deem vital, such as multifactor authentication (MFA) and privileged access management (PAM), it may help to reduce your premiums. Closely examine coverage scope. Coverage specifics vary globally. But you will find that most cyber insurance policies cover a portion of losses from ransomware attacks and expenses linked to crisis responses. You need to have a thorough understanding of the breach scenarios your policy does or does not cover. Take note of any exclusions. Also, be sure to scrutinize services like breach investigation support, legal | Ransomware Tool Threat Guideline Cloud | ★★★ | |
