Proofpoint Tops KuppingerCole Leadership Compass for Email Security

Email is the primary threat vector for cybersecurity threats. And these days, many malware, phishing and social engineering schemes target your people. The 2023 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report notes that 74% of all data breaches include a human element. Threats are constantly evolving, too. It doesn\'t matter how sophisticated or complex your business is, it is a daunting task to protect your people from modern threats.  At Proofpoint, we understand how critical it is for any business to protect its people from today\'s email threats. That\'s why we innovate every day. Recently, the industry has once again recognized our efforts to help our customers protect their people and their businesses. This time, our email security was recognized by major industry analyst firm KuppingerCole.   Here is what they said about Proofpoint Threat Protection-and what makes it stand out from the competition.    Proofpoint named an Overall Leader  KuppingerCole just named Proofpoint an Overall Leader in the KuppingerCole Leadership Compass for Email Security Report, 2023. This is the third time in the past year that our email security has been named a leader by a major industry analyst firm. This recognition “triple crown” is the direct result of our commitment to helping businesses protect their people from modern email threats and change user behavior for the better. It keeps us innovating year after year.    In the report from KuppingerCole, Proofpoint Threat Protection received the highest “strong positive” rating in all categories, including:  Security  Functionality  Deployment  Interoperability  Usability      With its ratings, KuppingerCole positioned Proofpoint as a leader in all evaluation categories, including product, technology, innovation and market.   KuppingerCole named Proofpoint a leader in the product, technology, innovation and market categories.  What makes Proofpoint stand out  Here is a closer look at how we can help you protect your people from advanced email threats.   Stop the widest variety of threats with accuracy  Proofpoint uses a multilayered detection stack to identify a wide array of email threats with accuracy. Because we have a broad set of detection technology, we can apply the right technique to the right threat. For example, we have robust sandbox technology to detect URL-based threats, like quick response codes (QR Codes) and behavioral analysis for business email compromise (BEC) and telephone-oriented attack delivery (TOAD)  threats.   Our machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) models are trained by our experts using one of the richest sets of data in the industry. This ensures we provide superior accuracy. Every year, we analyze more than 3 trillion messages across our 230,000+ customer, global ecosystem.   Our modular detection stack enables agility and speed to adapt to changes in the threat landscape. It allows us to quickly deploy new models to address new threats like BEC, TOAD and QR Codes. And it enables us to tune our existing detection models more frequently.  Prevent email threats before they reach your people\'s inboxes   Predelivery detection from Proofpoint stops known and emerging threats at the front door of your business-not after they are delivered.  Proofpoint threat intelligence and research found that nearly 1 in 7 malicious URL clicks happen within one minute of an email\'s arrival. That\'s why predelivery protection is so critical. If a threat ends up in your users\' inboxes, it increases your risk of a cyberattack or data breach.   We analyze all messages, links and attachments with our robust detection stack before they can reach an inbox. This analysis, combined with our predelivery sandboxing and behavioral analysis of suspicious QR codes, allows us to stop malicious messages before they become a risk to your business.  Gain actionable insights into your human risks  Proofpoint quantifies your people\'s risk so that you can prioritize budget and resources to focus o Threat Data Breach Malware Mobile Commercial ★★★

ProofPoint.webp 2024-03-26 06:00:09 Proofpoint Discloses Technique Pivot by Attacker Group TA577: Targeting Windows NTLM (lien direct) Proofpoint was the first to uncover a concerning new development in the world of cyberthreats that involves a group known as TA577. These cybercriminals, which typically act as initial access brokers (IAB), have pivoted to attacking an old, but widely deployed Windows service to steal sensitive information.   Specifically, they aim to steal at scale the hash of the NT LAN Manager (NTLM) authentication session details. Then it is expected that they either sell the data, or they exploit it for various downstream activities like stealing sensitive data and ransoming systems. The planned end result is the same, a significant business-impacting breach of the targeted organizations.   How did the new attack happen?   Proofpoint detected two distinct email-based campaigns that TA577 carried out on February 26 and 27, 2024. The campaigns targeted hundreds of businesses globally via tens of thousands of emails.   The attackers cleverly disguised the emails as replies to previous emails. This is an effective social engineering tactic known as thread hijacking.   The emails contained HTML attachments compressed into zip files. Each malicious attachment had its own unique identifier. And the HTML files contained within the attachment were customized for each recipient. Because all the hashes were unique, a simple signature-based detection system could not consistently detect and block these emails.  When the email recipient opened the files, it triggered a connection to a Server Message Block (SMB) server that the threat actor controlled. No malware was directly delivered through these connections.   However, the attackers\' objective was clear-to capture the details of the challenge/response transaction and the NTLM hashes of the user\'s Windows machine, which include the user\'s password authentication data. The attackers can use this data in the next stage of the attack either in hash form or by cracking the hash first to retrieve the password.   Note: In this case, the use of multifactor authentication (MFA) would not stop the attack, as TA577 targeted previously authenticated users on active Windows machines. If targeted businesses used MFA, that authentication step would have already occurred; thus, it would not significantly hinder this attack.   What was the attackers\' intent?  As noted earlier, TA577 usually acts as an IAB. So, the group likely aimed to exploit the data that they collected by cracking password hashes or facilitating “pass-the-hash” attacks. They could sell access to other threat actors who seek to penetrate targeted companies\' networks more deeply.  As part of our investigation, Proofpoint identified the use of a well-known toolkit, Impacket, on the SMB servers involved in the attack. This discovery further confirmed that the malicious intent behind TA577\'s activities is to go well beyond the initial account or system compromise.     What is especially concerning about this attack approach is that any connection to the SMB servers would compromise sensitive information that includes:  Usernames  Passwords  Session hashes  Domain names  Computer names  More troubling is the fact that the attackers delivered the malicious HTML files within zip archives. That means they bypassed measures in Outlook mail clients last patched before July 2023.   If your email security provider did not block the inbound email and a user engaged with the message, your last hope to avoid the compromise is the timeliness of your software patching program.      The impacts on businesses   This attack is based on an old protocol (NTLM) from the 1990s. But this new twist by TA577 is noteworthy because it represents a departure from the group\'s usual tactics of delivering malware and bots directly. It suggests that the group is adapting and evolving. They are seeking new ways to bypass security measures and monetize their campaigns.   This cyberthreat poses a significant risk to businesses that run Microsoft Windows.
