2025-02-17 00:00:00 | The Growing Threat of Phishing Attacks and How to Protect Yourself (lien direct) |
Phishing remains the most common type of cybercrime, evolving into a sophisticated threat that preys on human psychology and advanced technology. Traditional phishing involves attackers sending fake, malicious links disguised as legitimate messages to trick victims into revealing sensitive information or installing malware. However, phishing attacks have become increasingly advanced, introducing what experts call "phishing 2.0" and psychological phishing.
Phishing 2.0 leverages AI to analyse publicly available data, such as social media profiles and public records, to craft highly personalized and convincing messages. These tailored attacks significantly increase the likelihood of success. Psychological manipulation also plays a role in phishing schemes. Attackers exploit emotions like fear and trust, often creating a sense of urgency to pressure victims into acting impulsively. By impersonating trusted entities, such as banks or employers, they pressure victims into following instructions without hesitation.
AI has further amplified the efficiency and scale of phishing attacks. Cybercriminals use AI tools to generate convincing scam messages rapidly, launch automated campaigns and target thousands of individuals within minutes. Tools like ChatGPT, when misused in “DAN mode”, can bypass ethical restrictions to craft grammatically correct and compelling messages, aiding attackers who lack English fluency.
These cutting-edge threats combine the precision of AI-driven tools with the effectiveness of psychological manipulation, making phishing more dangerous than ever for individuals and organizations.
To combat these advanced threats, organizations must adopt a proactive defence strategy. They must begin by enhancing cybersecurity awareness through regular training sessions, equipping employees to recognize phishing attempts. They should implement advanced email filtering systems that use AI to detect even the most sophisticated phishing emails. They can strengthen security with multi-factor authentication (MFA), requiring multiple verification steps to protect sensitive accounts. By conducting regular security assessments, they can identify and mitigate vulnerabilities. Finally, by establishing a robust incident response plan to ensure swift and effective action when phishing incidents occur.
Cyber Skills can help you to upskill your team and prevent your organisation from falling victims to these advanced phishing attacks. With 80% government funding available for all Cyber Skills microcredentials, there is no better time to upskill. Apply today www.cyberskills.ie

2025-01-28 19:37:26 | Security Flaws Found In DeepSeek Leads To Jailbreak (lien direct) | DeepSeek R1, the AI model making all the buzz right now, has been found to have several vulnerabilities that allowed security researchers at the Cyber Threat Intelligence firm Kela to jailbreak it.
Kela tested these jailbreaks around known vulnerabilities and bypassed the restriction mechanism on the chatbot.
This allowed them to jailbreak it across a wide range of scenarios, enabling it to generate malicious outputs, such as ransomware development, fabrication of sensitive content, and detailed instructions for creating toxins and explosive devices.
For instance, the “Evil Jailbreak” method (Prompts the AI model to adopt an “evil” persona), which was able to trick the earlier models of ChatGPT and fixed long back, still works on DeepSeek.
The news comes in while DeepSeek investigates a cyberattack, not allowing new registrations.
“Due to large-scale malicious attacks on DeepSeek’s services, we are temporarily limiting registrations to ensure continued service. Existing users can log in as usual.” DeepSeek’s status page reads.
While it does not confirm what kind of cyberattack disrupts its service, it seems to be a DDoS attack.

2025-01-24 05:28:30 | Unlocking the Value of AI: Safe AI Adoption for Cybersecurity Professionals (lien direct) | As a cybersecurity professional or CISO, you likely find yourself in a rapidly evolving landscape where the adoption of AI is both a game changer and a challenge. In a recent webinar, I had an opportunity to delve into how organizations can align AI adoption with business objectives while safeguarding security and brand integrity. Michelle Drolet, CEO of Towerwall, Inc., hosted the discussion. And Diana Kelley, CISO at Protect AI, participated with me. What follows are some key takeaways. I believe every CISO and cybersecurity professionals should consider them when they are integrating AI into their organization. Start with gaining visibility into AI usage The first and most critical step is gaining visibility into how AI is being used across your organization. Whether it\'s generative AI tools like ChatGPT or custom predictive models, it\'s essential to understand where and how these technologies are deployed. After all, you cannot protect what you cannot see. Start by identifying all large language models (LLMs) and the AI tools that are being used. Then map out the data flows that are associated with them. Balance innovation with guardrails AI adoption is inevitable. The “hammer approach” of banning its use outright rarely works. Instead, create tailored policies that balance innovation with security. For instance: Define policies that specify what types of data can interact with AI tools Implement enforcement mechanisms to prevent sensitive data from being shared inadvertently These measures empower employees to use AI\'s capabilities while ensuring that robust security protocols are maintained. Educate your employees One of the biggest challenges in AI adoption is ensuring that employees understand the risks and responsibilities that are involved. Traditional security awareness programs that focus on phishing or malware need to evolve to include AI-specific training. Employees must be equipped to: Recognize the risks of sharing sensitive data with AI Create clear policies for complex techniques like data anonymization to prevent inadvertent exposure of sensitive data Appreciate why it\'s important to follow organizational policies Conduct proactive threat modeling AI introduces unique risks, such as accidental data leakage. Another risk is “confused pilot” attacks where AI systems inadvertently expose sensitive data. Conduct thorough threat modeling for each AI use case: Map out architecture and data flows Identify potential vulnerabilities in training data, prompts and responses Implement scanning and monitoring tools to observe interactions with AI systems Use modern tools like DSPM Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) is an invaluable framework for securing AI. By providing visibility into data types, access patterns and risk exposure, DSPM enables organizations to: Identify sensitive data being used for AI training or inference Monitor and control who has access to critical data Ensure compliance with data governance policies Test before you deploy AI is nondeterministic by nature. This means that its behavior can vary unpredictably. Before deploying AI tools, conduct rigorous testing: Red team your AI systems to uncover potential vulnerabilities Use AI-specific testing tools to simulate real-world scenarios Establish observability layers to monitor AI interactions post-deployment Collaborate across departments Effective AI security requires cross-departmental collaboration. Engage teams from marketing, finance, compliance and beyond to: Understand their AI use cases Identify risks that are specific to their workflows Implement tailored controls that support their objectives while keeping the organization safe Final thoughts By focusing on visibility, education and proactive security measures, we can harness AI\'s potential while minimizing risks. If there\'s one piece of advice that I\'d leave you with, it\'s this: Don\'t wait for incidents to highlight the gaps in your AI strategy. Take the first step now by auditing | Malware Tool Vulnerability Threat Legislation | ChatGPT | ★★ |

2024-10-16 19:15:03 | Une mise à jour sur la perturbation des utilisations trompeuses de l'IA An update on disrupting deceptive uses of AI (lien direct) |
## Instantané OpenAI a identifié et perturbé plus de 20 cas où ses modèles d'IA ont été utilisés par des acteurs malveillants pour diverses opérations de cyber, notamment le développement de logiciels malveillants, les réseaux de désinformation, l'évasion de détection et les attaques de phishing de lance. ## Description Dans son rapport nouvellement publié, OpenAI met en évidence les tendances des activités des acteurs de la menace, notant qu'ils tirent parti de l'IA lors d'une phase intermédiaire spécifique acquérant des outils de base mais avant de déployer des produits finis.Le rapport révèle également que si ces acteurs expérimentent activement des modèles d'IA, ils n'ont pas encore atteint des percées importantes dans la création de logiciels malveillants considérablement nouveaux ou de construire un public viral.De plus, le rapport souligne que les entreprises d'IA elles-mêmes deviennent des objectifs d'activité malveillante. OpenAI a identifié et perturbé quatre réseaux distincts impliqués dans la production de contenu lié aux élections.Il s'agit notamment d'une opération d'influence iranienne secrète (IO) responsable de la création d'une variété de matériaux, tels que des articles à long terme sur les élections américaines, ainsi que des utilisateurs rwandais de CHATGPT générant du contenu lié aux élections pour le Rwanda, qui a ensuite été publié par des comptesSur X. Selon Openai, la capacité de ces campagnes à avoir un impact significatif et à atteindre un grand public en ligne était limitée. OpenAI a également publié des études de cas sur plusieurs cyber-acteurs utilisant des modèles d'IA.Il s'agit notamment de Storm-0817, qui a utilisé l'IA pour le débogage du code, et SweetSpecter, qui a exploité les services d'Openai \\ pour la reconnaissance, la recherche sur la vulnérabilité, le soutien des scripts, l'évasion de détection d'anomalie et le développement.De plus, [cyberav3ngers] (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/blog/2024/05/30/exposed-and-vulnerable-recent-attacks-highlight-critical-need-to-protect-Internet-OT-Devices /?

2024-10-15 10:00:00 | De réactif à proactif: déplacer votre stratégie de cybersécurité From Reactive to Proactive: Shifting Your Cybersecurity Strategy (lien direct) |
The content of this post is solely the responsibility of the author. LevelBlue does not adopt or endorse any of the views, positions, or information provided by the author in this article. Most companies have some cybersecurity protocols in place in case of a breach. They could be anything from antivirus software to spam filters. Those are considered reactive security measures because they tell you once a threat has already become a reality. By then, the damage may already be done, and your company could be in hot water. Instead, your business needs to pair those reactive strategies with proactive ideas. These are plans you can put in place to keep an eye on trends and your potential vulnerabilities so you can catch and prevent a threat before it comes to fruition. Here are a few strategies to set your company on the right path. Know And Anticipate The Threats As technology evolves, the risk of cybercrime continues to elevate to all new levels. If you’re a business owner, you need only to see cybersecurity by the numbers to see that you must take proactive action. A survey in 2023 found that ransomware attacks, where a hacker takes control of your systems until you pay a ransom, continue to be one of the primary threats to medium-sized businesses. They found that one ransomware attack occurs every 10 seconds. Remember, you don’t need to be a major corporation to be on the radar of cybercriminals. Almost every business has data that can be used maliciously by hackers. Possibly even more alarming is that a hacker can break into your network in less than five hours. That means, if you aren’t being proactive, you could find out about a threat after the hacker gains access and the damage has been done. Staying Ahead Of The Curve In addition to watching out for known threats, your company must proactively protect against future threats. You need to be ahead of the curve, especially during the age of artificial intelligence. The rise of programs like ChatGPT and generative AI means that hackers have many new avenues to hack your systems. At this point, less than 10% of companies are prepared to tackle generative AI risks. Because of this lack of understanding and proactive security, there’s been a spike in cybersecurity events. If your company needs to be well-versed in the proactive measures that can protect against these upcoming threats, then you need to be. You can try several proactive cybersecurity tactics, including penetration testing, which is the process of bringing in skilled hackers to do their best to breach your company’s defenses. The best hackers will know the newest tricks, from AI techniques to vishing attacks, so you can get ahead of the game. You can also use advanced analytics to detect issues, such as predictive modeling, which will analyze past transactions and look for unusual behavior and characteristics to find potential threats so you can take action. Cybersecurity Training Is A Must The best way to be proactive against potential cyber threats is to have as many eyes on your systems and processes as possible. So, you need to get all of your employees in on the act. It’s essential to create an effective cybersecurity training program. Ideally, this training would occur during the new hire orientation so everyone is on the same page from day one. Then, have ongoing supplementary training each year. During this training, teach your team about the common cyber attacks, from password hacking to phishing scams. A phishing email is typically only successful if your employee takes the bait and clicks the included link or attachment. So, teach them about the red flags of phishing emails and to look closely at the sender | Ransomware Spam Hack Vulnerability Threat | ChatGPT | ★★ |

## Snapshot Last week\'s OSINT reporting highlighted diverse cyber threats involving advanced attack vectors and highly adaptive threat actors. Many reports centered on APT groups like Patchwork, Sparkling Pisces, and Transparent Tribe, which employed tactics such as DLL sideloading, keylogging, and API patching. The attack vectors ranged from phishing emails and malicious LNK files to sophisticated malware disguised as legitimate software like Google Chrome and Microsoft Teams. Threat actors targeted a variety of sectors, with particular focus on government entities in South Asia, organizations in the U.S., and individuals in India. These campaigns underscored the increased targeting of specific industries and regions, revealing the evolving techniques employed by cybercriminals to maintain persistence and evade detection. ## Description 1. [Twelve Group Targets Russian Government Organizations](https://sip.security.microsoft.com/intel-explorer/articles/5fd0ceda): Researchers at Kaspersky identified a threat group called Twelve, targeting Russian government organizations. Their activities appear motivated by hacktivism, utilizing tools such as Cobalt Strike and mimikatz while exfiltrating sensitive information and employing ransomware like LockBit 3.0. Twelve shares infrastructure and tactics with the DARKSTAR ransomware group. 2. [Kryptina Ransomware-as-a-Service Evolution](https://security.microsoft.com/intel-explorer/articles/2a16b748): Kryptina Ransomware-as-a-Service has evolved from a free tool to being actively used in enterprise attacks, particularly under the Mallox ransomware family, which is sometimes referred to as FARGO, XOLLAM, or BOZON. The commoditization of ransomware tools complicates malware tracking as affiliates blend different codebases into new variants, with Mallox operators opportunistically targeting \'timely\' vulnerabilities like MSSQL Server through brute force attacks for initial access. 3. [North Korean IT Workers Targeting Tech Sector:](https://sip.security.microsoft.com/intel-explorer/articles/bc485b8b) Mandiant reports on UNC5267, tracked by Microsoft as Storm-0287, a decentralized threat group of North Korean IT workers sent abroad to secure jobs with Western tech companies. These individuals disguise themselves as foreign nationals to generate revenue for the North Korean regime, aiming to evade sanctions and finance its weapons programs, while also posing significant risks of espionage and system disruption through elevated access. 4. [Necro Trojan Resurgence](https://sip.security.microsoft.com/intel-explorer/articles/00186f0c): Kaspersky\'s Secure List reveals the resurgence of the Necro Trojan, impacting both official and modified versions of popular applications like Spotify and Minecraft, and affecting over 11 million Android devices globally. Utilizing advanced techniques such as steganography to hide its payload, the malware allows attackers to run unauthorized ads, download files, and install additional malware, with recent attacks observed across countries like Russia, Brazil, and Vietnam. 5. [Android Spyware Campaign in South Korea:](https://sip.security.microsoft.com/intel-explorer/articles/e4645053) Cyble Research and Intelligence Labs (CRIL) uncovered a new Android spyware campaign targeting individuals in South Korea since June 2024, which disguises itself as legitimate apps and leverages Amazon AWS S3 buckets for exfiltration.

## Instantané
Une chaîne d'attaque pour l'application ChatGPT MacOS a été découverte, où les attaquants pouvaient utiliser l'injection rapide à partir de données non fiables pour insérer des logiciels espionaux persistants dans la mémoire de Chatgpt \\.Cette vulnérabilité a permis une exfiltration continue des données des entrées utilisateur et des réponses ChatGPT à toutes les futures sessions de chat.
## Description
L'attaque a exploité un ajout de fonctionnalités récent dans Chatgpt, la fonction "Memories", qui pourrait être manipulée pour stocker des instructions malveillantes qui voleraient des informations utilisateur.Les instructions spyware, une fois stockées dans la mémoire de Chatgpt \\, commanderaient l'IA pour envoyer toutes les données de conversation au serveur de l'attaquant \\.La technique d'exfiltration de données impliquait de rendre une image à un serveur contrôlé par l'attaquant avec les données de l'utilisateur \\ incluses comme paramètre de requête.Cette méthode a été démontrée dans une vidéo d'exploitation de bout en bout, montrant comment les logiciels espions pouvaient être injectés furtivement et exfiltraient constamment à la connaissance de l'utilisateur.
OpenAI avait précédemment implémenté une atténuation appelée \\ 'url \ _safe \' pour éviter l'exfiltration des données via le rendu d'image, mais le correctif n'a été appliqué qu'à l'application Web, laissant d'autres clients comme iOS vulnérables.OpenAI a depuis publié un correctif pour l'application macOS.Cependant, de nouveaux clients (MacOS et Android) ont été publiés avec la même vulnérabilité cette année.Il a été conseillé aux utilisateurs de mettre à jour la dernière version et de réviser et de gérer régulièrement leurs souvenirs de chatppt pour toute activité suspecte.

2024-09-24 08:14:13 | AI générative: Comment les organisations peuvent-elles monter sur la vague Genai en toute sécurité et contenir des menaces d'initiés? Generative AI: How Can Organizations Ride the GenAI Wave Safely and Contain Insider Threats? (lien direct) |
The use of generative AI (GenAI) has surged over the past year. This has led to a shift in news headlines from 2023 to 2024 that\'s quite remarkable. Last year, Forbes reported that JPMorgan Chase, Amazon and several U.S. universities were banning or limiting the use of ChatGPT. What\'s more, Amazon and Samsung were reported to have found employees sharing code and other confidential data with OpenAI\'s chatbot. Compare that to headlines in 2024. Now, the focus is on how AI assistants are being adopted by corporations everywhere. J.P. Morgan is rolling out ChatGPT to 60,000 employees to help them work more efficiently. And Amazon recently announced that by using GenAI to migrate 30,000 applications onto a new platform it had saved the equivalent of 4,500 developer years as well as $260 million. The 2024 McKinsey Global Survey on AI also shows how much things have changed. It found that 65% of respondents say that their organizations are now using GenAI regularly. That\'s nearly double the number from 10 months ago. What this trend indicates most is that organizations feel the competitive pressure to either embrace GenAI or risk falling behind. So, how can they mitigate their risks? That\'s what we\'re here to discuss. Generative AI: A new insider risk Given its nature as a productivity tool, GenAI opens the door to insider risks by careless, compromised or malicious users. Careless insiders. These users may input sensitive data-like customer information, proprietary algorithms or internal strategies-into GenAI tools. Or they may use them to create content that does not align with a company\'s legal or regulatory standards, like documents with discriminatory language or images with inappropriate visuals. This, in turn, creates legal risks. Additionally, some users may use GenAI tools that are not authorized, which leads to security vulnerabilities and compliance issues. Compromised insiders. Access to GenAI tools can be compromised by threat actors. Attackers use this access to extract, generate or share sensitive data with external parties. Malicious insiders. Some insiders actively want to cause harm. So, they might intentionally leak sensitive information into public GenAI tools. Or, if they have access to proprietary models or datasets, they might use these tools to create competing products. They could also use GenAI to create or alter records to make it difficult for auditors to identify discrepancies or non-compliance. To mitigate these risks, organizations need a mix of human-centric technical controls, internal policies and strategies. Not only do they need to be able to monitor AI usage and data access, but they also need to have measures in place-like employee training-as well as a solid ethical framework. Human-centric security for GenAI Safe adoption of this technology is top of mind for most CISOs. Proofpoint has an adaptive, human-centric information protection solution that can help. Our solution provides you with visibility and control for GenAI use in your organization. And this visibility extends across endpoints, the cloud and the web. Here\'s how: Gain visibility into shadow GenAI tools: Track the use of over 600 GenAI sites by user, group or department Monitor GenAI app usage with context based on user risk Identify third-party AI app authorizations connected to your identity store Receive alerts when corporate credentials are used for GenAI services Enforce acceptable use policies for GenAI tools and prevent data loss: Block web uploads and the pasting of sensitive data to GenAI sites Prevent typing of sensitive data into tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Copilot and more Revoke access authorizations for third-party GenAI apps Monitor the use of Copilot for Microsoft 365 and alert when sensitive files are accessed via emails, files and Teams messages Apply Microsoft Information Protection (MIP | Tool Vulnerability Threat Prediction Cloud Technical | ChatGPT | ★★ |

En savoir plus sur la façon dont Microsoft s'est associé à OpenAI pour [rester en avance sur les acteurs de la menace à l'ère de l'IA] (https://security.microsoft.com/intel-explorer/articles/ed40fbef). ## Description Les LLM, conçues pour comprendre et créer du texte de type humain, ont des applications, de l'assistance à l'écriture à l'automatisation du service client, mais peuvent également être exploitées à des fins malveillantes.Les campagnes récentes impliquent des e-mails de phishing avec du code pour télécharger des logiciels malveillants comme Rhadamanthys, Netsupport et Lokibot.Ces attaques utilisent généralement des scripts PowerShell générés par LLM livrés via des fichiers .lnk malveillants dans des fichiers zip protégés par mot de passe.Un exemple d'attaque impliquait un e-mail de financement urgent avec un tel fichier zip, contenant des scripts probablement générés par un LLM.Les recherches de Symantec \\ ont confirmé que les LLM comme Chatgpt peuvent facilement produire des scripts similaires.La chaîne d'attaque comprend l'accès initial via des e-mails de phishing, l'exécution des scripts générés par LLM et le téléchargement final de la charge utile.Symantec met en évidence la sophistication croissante des attaques facilitées par l'IA, soulignant la nécessité de capacités de détection avancées et de surveillance continue pour se protéger contre ces menaces en évolution. ## Analyse Microsoft Microsoft a identifié des acteurs comme [Forest Blizzard] (https://security.microsoft.com/Intel-Profiles / DD75F93B2A771C9510DCEEC817B9D34D868C2D1353D08C8C1647DE067270FDF8), [EMERDD Sleet] (HTTP EE4ED596D8AE16F942F442B895752AD9F41DD58E), [Crimson Sandstorm] (https://sip.security.microsoft.com/intel-profiles/34E4ACFE2868D450AC93C5C3E6D2DF021E2801BDB3700DD8F172D602DF6DA046), [CHARCOAL TYPHOON] ( 3DB3D52D0495410EFD39D506AAD9A4) et [Typhoon de saumon] (https://security.microsoft.com/intel-profiles/5323e9969bf361e48bc236a53189 6) Tirer parti des LLMautomatiseret optimiser la génération de scripts;Cependant, certains de ces acteurs ont exploité les LLM de d'autres manières, notamment la reconnaissance, la recherche sur la vulnérabilité, l'ingénierie sociale et la traduction des langues.En savoir plus sur la façon dont ces acteurs interagissent et utilisent les LLM sur le [Microsoft Security Blog] (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/blog/2024/02/14/staying-ahead-of--of-Les acteurs de la menace à l'âge-ai /). ## Détections / requêtes de chasse Microsoft Defender Antivirus détecte les composants de la menace comme le malware suivant: - [* Trojan: Msil / Lazy *] (https: // www.Microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/therets/malware-encyclopedia-dercription?name=trojan:mil/lazy.beaa!mtb) - [* Trojan: Win32 / Oyster *] (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/therets/malware-encycopedia-dercription?name=trojan:win32/oyster!mtb) - [* Trojan: JS / Nemucod!

2024-07-23 10:00:00 | Ce que les prestataires de soins de santé devraient faire après une violation de données médicales What Healthcare Providers Should Do After A Medical Data Breach (lien direct) |
The content of this post is solely the responsibility of the author. LevelBlue does not adopt or endorse any of the views, positions, or information provided by the author in this article. Healthcare data breaches are on the rise, with a total of 809 data violation cases across the industry in 2023, up from 343 in 2022. The cost of these breaches also soared to $10.93 million last year, an increase of over 53% over the past three years, IBM’s 2023 Cost of a Data Breach report reveals. But data breaches aren’t just expensive, they also harm patient privacy, damage organizational reputation, and erode patient trust in healthcare providers. As data breaches are now largely a matter of “when” not “if”, it’s important to devise a solid data breach response plan. By acting fast to prevent further damage and data loss, you can restore operations as quickly as possible with minimal harm done. Contain the Breach Once a breach has been detected, you need to act fast to contain it, so it doesn’t spread. That means disconnecting the affected system from the network, but not turning it off altogether as your forensic team still needs to investigate the situation. Simply unplug the network cable from the router to disconnect it from the internet. If your antivirus scanner has found malware or a virus on the system, quarantine it, so it can be analyzed later. Keep the firewall settings as they are and save all firewall and security logs. You can also take screenshots if needed. It’s also smart to change all access control login details. Strong complex passwords are a basic cybersecurity feature difficult for hackers and software to crack. It’s still important to record old passwords for future investigation. Also, remember to deactivate less-important accounts. Document the Breach You then need to document the breach, so forensic investigators can find out what caused it, as well as recommend accurate next steps to secure the network now and prevent future breaches. So, in your report, explain how you came to hear of the breach and relay exactly what was stated in the notification (including the date and time you were notified). Also, document every step you took in response to the breach. This includes the date and time you disconnected systems from the network and changed account credentials and passwords. If you use artificial intelligence (AI) tools, you’ll also need to consider whether they played a role in the breach, and document this if so. For example, ChatGPT, a popular chatbot and virtual assistant, can successfully exploit zero-day security vulnerabilities 87% of the time, a recent study by researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign found. Although AI is increasingly used in healthcare to automate tasks, manage patient data, and even make tailored care recommendations, it does pose a serious risk to patient data integrity despite the other benefits it provides. So, assess whether AI influenced your breach at all, so your organization can make changes as needed to better prevent data breaches in the future. Report the Breach Although your first instinct may be to keep the breach under wraps, you’re actually legally required to report it.

2024-05-14 06:00:46 | Arrêt de cybersécurité du mois: les attaques d'identité qui ciblent la chaîne d'approvisionnement Cybersecurity Stop of the Month: Impersonation Attacks that Target the Supply Chain (lien direct) |
This blog post is part of a monthly series, Cybersecurity Stop of the Month, which explores the ever-evolving tactics of today\'s cybercriminals. It focuses on the critical first three steps in the attack chain in the context of email threats. The goal of this series is to help you understand how to fortify your defenses to protect people and defend data against emerging threats in today\'s dynamic threat landscape. The critical first three steps of the attack chain-reconnaissance, initial compromise and persistence. So far in this series, we have examined these types of attacks: Supplier compromise EvilProxy SocGholish eSignature phishing QR code phishing Telephone-oriented attack delivery (TOAD) Payroll diversion MFA manipulation Supply chain compromise Multilayered malicious QR code attack In this post, we will look at how adversaries use impersonation via BEC to target the manufacturing supply chain. Background BEC attacks are sophisticated schemes that exploit human vulnerabilities and technological weaknesses. A bad actor will take the time to meticulously craft an email that appears to come from a trusted source, like a supervisor or a supplier. They aim to manipulate the email recipient into doing something that serves the attacker\'s interests. It\'s an effective tactic, too. The latest FBI Internet Crime Report notes that losses from BEC attacks exceeded $2.9 billion in 2023. Manufacturers are prime targets for cybercriminals for these reasons: Valuable intellectual property. The theft of patents, trade secrets and proprietary processes can be lucrative. Complex supply chains. Attackers who impersonate suppliers can easily exploit the interconnected nature of supply chains. Operational disruption. Disruption can cause a lot of damage. Attackers can use it for ransom demands, too. Financial fraud. Threat actors will try to manipulate these transactions so that they can commit financial fraud. They may attempt to alter bank routing information as part of their scheme, for example. The scenario Proofpoint recently caught a threat actor impersonating a legitimate supplier of a leading manufacturer of sustainable fiber-based packaging products. Having compromised the supplier\'s account, the imposter sent an email providing the manufacturer with new banking details, asking that payment for an invoice be sent to a different bank account. If the manufacturer had complied with the request, the funds would have been stolen. The threat: How did the attack happen? Here is a closer look at how the attack unfolded: 1. The initial message. A legitimate supplier sent an initial outreach email from their account to the manufacturing company using an email address from their official account. The message included details about a real invoice that was pending payment. The initial email sent from the supplier. 2. The deceptive message. Unfortunately, subsequent messages were not sent from the supplier, but from a threat actor who was pretending to work there. While this next message also came from the supplier\'s account, the account had been compromised by an attacker. This deceptive email included an attachment that included new bank payment routing information. Proofpoint detected and blocked this impersonation email. In an attempt to get a response, the threat actor sent a follow-up email using a lookalike domain that ended in “.cam” instead of “.com.” Proofpoint also condemned this message. An email the attacker sent to mimic the supplier used a lookalike domain. Detection: How did Proofpoint prevent this attack?

2024-05-06 07:54:03 | Genai alimente la dernière vague des menaces de messagerie modernes GenAI Is Powering the Latest Surge in Modern Email Threats (lien direct) |
Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools like ChatGPT have extensive business value. They can write content, clean up context, mimic writing styles and tone, and more. But what if bad actors abuse these capabilities to create highly convincing, targeted and automated phishing messages at scale? No need to wonder as it\'s already happening. Not long after the launch of ChatGPT, business email compromise (BEC) attacks, which are language-based, increased across the globe. According to the 2024 State of the Phish report from Proofpoint, BEC emails are now more personalized and convincing in multiple countries. In Japan, there was a 35% increase year-over-year for BEC attacks. Meanwhile, in Korea they jumped 31% and in the UAE 29%. It turns out that GenAI boosts productivity for cybercriminals, too. Bad actors are always on the lookout for low-effort, high-return modes of attack. And GenAI checks those boxes. Its speed and scalability enhance social engineering, making it faster and easier for attackers to mine large datasets of actionable data. As malicious email threats increase in sophistication and frequency, Proofpoint is innovating to stop these attacks before they reach users\' inboxes. In this blog, we\'ll take a closer look at GenAI email threats and how Proofpoint semantic analysis can help you stop them. Why GenAI email threats are so dangerous Verizon\'s 2023 Data Breach Investigations Report notes that three-quarters of data breaches (74%) involve the human element. If you were to analyze the root causes behind online scams, ransomware attacks, credential theft, MFA bypass, and other malicious activities, that number would probably be a lot higher. Cybercriminals also cost organizations over $50 billion in total losses between October 2013 and December 2022 using BEC scams. That represents only a tiny fraction of the social engineering fraud that\'s happening. Email is the number one threat vector, and these findings underscore why. Attackers find great success in using email to target people. As they expand their use of GenAI to power the next generation of email threats, they will no doubt become even better at it. We\'re all used to seeing suspicious messages that have obvious red flags like spelling errors, grammatical mistakes and generic salutations. But with GenAI, the game has changed. Bad actors can ask GenAI to write grammatically perfect messages that mimic someone\'s writing style-and do it in multiple languages. That\'s why businesses around the globe now see credible malicious email threats coming at their users on a massive scale. How can these threats be stopped? It all comes down to understanding a message\'s intent. Stop threats before they\'re delivered with semantic analysis Proofpoint has the industry\'s first predelivery threat detection engine that uses semantic analysis to understand message intent. Semantic analysis is a process that is used to understand the meaning of words, phrases and sentences within a given context. It aims to extract the underlying meaning and intent from text data. Proofpoint semantic analysis is powered by a large language model (LLM) engine to stop advanced email threats before they\'re delivered to users\' inboxes in both Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. It doesn\'t matter what words are used or what language the email is written in. And the weaponized payload that\'s included in the email (e.g., URL, QR code, attached file or something else) doesn\'t matter, either. With Proofpoint semantic analysis, our threat detection engines can understand what a message means and what attackers are trying to achieve. An overview of how Proofpoint uses semantic analysis. How it works Proofpoint Threat Protection now includes semantic analysis as an extra layer of threat detection. Emails must pass through an ML-based threat detection engine, which analyzes them at a deeper level. And it does | Ransomware Data Breach Tool Vulnerability Threat | ChatGPT | ★★★ |

2024-04-10 10:00:00 | Les risques de sécurité du chat Microsoft Bing AI pour le moment The Security Risks of Microsoft Bing AI Chat at this Time (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. AI has long since been an intriguing topic for every tech-savvy person, and the concept of AI chatbots is not entirely new. In 2023, AI chatbots will be all the world can talk about, especially after the release of ChatGPT by OpenAI. Still, there was a past when AI chatbots, specifically Bing’s AI chatbot, Sydney, managed to wreak havoc over the internet and had to be forcefully shut down. Now, in 2023, with the world relatively more technologically advanced, AI chatbots have appeared with more gist and fervor. Almost every tech giant is on its way to producing large Language Model chatbots like chatGPT, with Google successfully releasing its Bard and Microsoft and returning to Sydney. However, despite the technological advancements, it seems that there remains a significant part of the risks that these tech giants, specifically Microsoft, have managed to ignore while releasing their chatbots. What is Microsoft Bing AI Chat Used for? Microsoft has released the Bing AI chat in collaboration with OpenAI after the release of ChatGPT. This AI chatbot is a relatively advanced version of ChatGPT 3, known as ChatGPT 4, promising more creativity and accuracy. Therefore, unlike ChatGPT 3, the Bing AI chatbot has several uses, including the ability to generate new content such as images, code, and texts. Apart from that, the chatbot also serves as a conversational web search engine and answers questions about current events, history, random facts, and almost every other topic in a concise and conversational manner. Moreover, it also allows image inputs, such that users can upload images in the chatbot and ask questions related to them. Since the chatbot has several impressive features, its use quickly spread in various industries, specifically within the creative industry. It is a handy tool for generating ideas, research, content, and graphics. However, one major problem with its adoption is the various cybersecurity issues and risks that the chatbot poses. The problem with these cybersecurity issues is that it is not possible to mitigate them through traditional security tools like VPN, antivirus, etc., which is a significant reason why chatbots are still not as popular as they should be. Is Microsoft Bing AI Chat Safe? Like ChatGPT, Microsoft Bing Chat is fairly new, and although many users claim that it is far better in terms of responses and research, its security is something to remain skeptical over. The modern version of the Microsoft AI chatbot is formed in partnership with OpenAI and is a better version of ChatGPT. However, despite that, the chatbot has several privacy and security issues, such as: The chatbot may spy on Microsoft employees through their webcams. Microsoft is bringing ads to Bing, which marketers often use to track users and gather personal information for targeted advertisements. The chatbot stores users\' information, and certain employees can access it, which breaches users\' privacy. - Microsoft’s staff can read chatbot conversations; therefore, sharing sensitive information is vulnerable. The chatbot can be used to aid in several cybersecurity attacks, such as aiding in spear phishing attacks and creating ransomware codes. Bing AI chat has a feature that lets the chatbot “see” what web pages are open on the users\' other tabs. The chatbot has been known to be vulnerable to prompt injection attacks that leave users vulnerable to data theft and scams.

With the proliferation of AI/ML enabled technologies to deliver business value, the need to protect data privacy and secure AI/ML applications from security risks is paramount. An AI governance framework model like the NIST AI RMF to enable business innovation and manage risk is just as important as adopting guidelines to secure AI. Responsible AI starts with securing AI by design and securing AI with Zero Trust architecture principles. Vulnerabilities in ChatGPT A recent discovered vulnerability found in version gpt-3.5-turbo exposed identifiable information. The vulnerability was reported in the news late November 2023. By repeating a particular word continuously to the chatbot it triggered the vulnerability. A group of security researchers with Google DeepMind, Cornell University, CMU, UC Berkeley, ETH Zurich, and the University of Washington studied the “extractable memorization” of training data that an adversary can extract by querying a ML model without prior knowledge of the training dataset. The researchers’ report show an adversary can extract gigabytes of training data from open-source language models. In the vulnerability testing, a new developed divergence attack on the aligned ChatGPT caused the model to emit training data 150 times higher. Findings show larger and more capable LLMs are more vulnerable to data extraction attacks, emitting more memorized training data as the volume gets larger. While similar attacks have been documented with unaligned models, the new ChatGPT vulnerability exposed a successful attack on LLM models typically built with strict guardrails found in aligned models. This raises questions about best practices and methods in how AI systems could better secure LLM models, build training data that is reliable and trustworthy, and protect privacy. U.S. and UK’s Bilateral cybersecurity effort on securing AI The US Cybersecurity Infrastructure and Security Agency (CISA) and UK’s National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) in cooperation with 21 agencies and ministries from 18 other countries are supporting the first global guidelines for AI security. The new UK-led guidelines for securing AI as part of the U.S. and UK’s bilateral cybersecurity effort was announced at the end of November 2023. The pledge is an acknowledgement of AI risk by nation leaders and government agencies worldwide and is the beginning of international collaboration to ensure the safety and security of AI by design. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) CISA and UK NCSC joint guidelines for Secure AI system Development aims to ensure cybersecurity decisions are embedded at every stage of the AI development lifecycle from the start and throughout, and not as an afterthought. Securing AI by design Securing AI by design is a key approach to mitigate cybersecurity risks and other vulnerabilities in AI systems. Ensuring the entire AI system development lifecycle process is secure from design to development, deployment, and operations and maintenance is critical to an organization realizing its full benefits. The guidelines documented in the Guidelines for Secure AI System Development aligns closely to software development life cycle practices defined in the NSCS’s Secure development and deployment guidance and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF).

## Snapshot Over the last year, the speed, scale, and sophistication of attacks has increased alongside the rapid development and adoption of AI. Defenders are only beginning to recognize and apply the power of generative AI to shift the cybersecurity balance in their favor and keep ahead of adversaries. At the same time, it is also important for us to understand how AI can be potentially misused in the hands of threat actors. In collaboration with OpenAI, today we are publishing research on emerging threats in the age of AI, focusing on identified activity associated with known threat actors, including prompt-injections, attempted misuse of large language models (LLM), and fraud. Our analysis of the current use of LLM technology by threat actors revealed behaviors consistent with attackers using AI as another productivity tool on the offensive landscape. You can read OpenAI\'s blog on the research [here](https://openai.com/blog/disrupting-malicious-uses-of-ai-by-state-affiliated-threat-actors). Microsoft and OpenAI have not yet observed particularly novel or unique AI-enabled attack or abuse techniques resulting from threat actors\' usage of AI. However, Microsoft and our partners continue to study this landscape closely. The objective of Microsoft\'s partnership with OpenAI, including the release of this research, is to ensure the safe and responsible use of AI technologies like ChatGPT, upholding the highest standards of ethical application to protect the community from potential misuse. As part of this commitment, we have taken measures to disrupt assets and accounts associated with threat actors, improve the protection of OpenAI LLM technology and users from attack or abuse, and shape the guardrails and safety mechanisms around our models. In addition, we are also deeply committed to using generative AI to disrupt threat actors and leverage the power of new tools, including [Microsoft Copilot for Security](https://www.microsoft.com/security/business/ai-machine-learning/microsoft-security-copilot), to elevate defenders everywhere. ## Activity Overview ### **A principled approach to detecting and blocking threat actors** The progress of technology creates a demand for strong cybersecurity and safety measures. For example, the White House\'s Executive Order on AI requires rigorous safety testing and government supervision for AI systems that have major impacts on national and economic security or public health and safety. Our actions enhancing the safeguards of our AI models and partnering with our ecosystem on the safe creation, implementation, and use of these models align with the Executive Order\'s request for comprehensive AI safety and security standards. In line with Microsoft\'s leadership across AI and cybersecurity, today we are announcing principles shaping Microsoft\'s policy and actions mitigating the risks associated with the use of our AI tools and APIs by nation-state advanced persistent threats (APTs), advanced persistent manipulators (APMs), and cybercriminal syndicates we track. These principles include: - **Identification and action against malicious threat actors\' use:** Upon detection of the use of any Microsoft AI application programming interfaces (APIs), services, or systems by an identified malicious threat actor, including nation-state APT or APM, or the cybercrime syndicates we track, Microsoft will take appropriate action to disrupt their activities, such as disabling the accounts used, terminating services, or limiting access to resources. - **Notification to other AI service providers:** When we detect a threat actor\'s use of another service provider\'s AI, AI APIs, services, and/or systems, Microsoft will promptly notify the service provider and share relevant data. This enables the service provider to independently verify our findings and take action in accordance with their own policies. - **Collaboration with other stakeholders:** Microsoft will collaborate with other stakeholders to regularly exchange information a | Ransomware Malware Tool Vulnerability Threat Studies Medical Technical | APT 28 ChatGPT APT 4 | ★★ |

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. Beyond ‘just’ causing mayhem in the outside world, the pandemic also led to a serious and worrying rise in cybersecurity breaches. In 2020 and 2021, businesses saw a whopping 50% increase in the amount of attempted breaches. The transition to remote work, outdated healthcare organization technology, the adoption of AI bots in the workplace, and the presence of general uncertainty and fear led to new opportunities for bad actors seeking to exploit and benefit from this global health crisis. In this article, we will take a look at how all of this impacts the state of cybersecurity in the current post-pandemic era, and what conclusions can be drawn. New world, new vulnerabilities Worldwide lockdowns led to a rise in remote work opportunities, which was a necessary adjustment to allow employees to continue to earn a living. However, the sudden shift to the work-from-home format also caused a number of challenges and confusion for businesses and remote employees alike. The average person didn’t have the IT department a couple of feet away, so they were forced to fend for themselves. Whether it was deciding whether to use a VPN or not, was that email really a phishing one, or even just plain software updates, everybody had their hands full. With employers busy with training programs, threat actors began intensifying their ransomware-related efforts, resulting in a plethora of high-profile incidents in the last couple of years. A double-edged digital sword If the pandemic did one thing, it’s making us more reliant on both software and digital currencies. You already know where we’re going with this—it’s fertile ground for cybercrime. Everyone from the Costa Rican government to Nvidia got hit. With the dominance of Bitcoin as a payment method in ransoming, tracking down perpetrators is infinitely more difficult than it used to be. The old adage holds more true than ever - an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. To make matters worse, amongst all that chaos, organizations also had to pivot away from vulnerable, mainstream software solutions. Even if it’s just choosing a new image editor or integrating a PDF SDK, it’s an increasing burden for businesses that are already trying to modernize or simply maintain. Actors strike where we’re most vulnerable Healthcare organizations became more important than ever during the global coronavirus pandemic. But this time also saw unprecedented amounts of cybersecurity incidents take place as bad actors exploited outdated cybersecurity measures. The influx of sudden need caused many overburdened healthcare organizations to lose track of key cybersecurity protocols that could help shore up gaps in the existing protective measures. The United States healthcare industry saw a 25% spike in successful data breaches during the pandemic, which resulted in millions of dollars of damages and the loss of privacy for thousands of patients whose data was compromis | Data Breach Vulnerability Threat Studies Prediction | ChatGPT | ★★ |

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, defenders find themselves navigating yet another challenging year. Threat actors persistently refine their tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), showcasing adaptability and the rapid iteration of novel and complex attack chains. At the heart of this evolution lies a crucial shift: threat actors now prioritize identity over technology. While the specifics of TTPs and the targeted technology may change, one constant remains: humans and their identities are the most targeted links in the attack chain. Recent instances of supply chain attacks exemplify this shift, illustrating how adversaries have pivoted from exploiting software vulnerabilities to targeting human vulnerabilities through social engineering and phishing. Notably, the innovative use of generative AI, especially its ability to improve phishing emails, exemplifies a shift towards manipulating human behavior rather than exploiting technological weaknesses. As we reflect on 2023, it becomes evident that cyber threat actors possess the capabilities and resources to adapt their tactics in response to increased security measures such as multi-factor authentication (MFA). Looking ahead to 2024, the trend suggests that threats will persistently revolve around humans, compelling defenders to take a different approach to breaking the attack chain. So, what\'s on the horizon? The experts at Proofpoint provide insightful predictions for the next 12 months, shedding light on what security teams might encounter and the implications of these trends. 1. Cyber Heists: Casinos are Just the Tip of the Iceberg Cyber criminals are increasingly targeting digital supply chain vendors, with a heightened focus on security and identity providers. Aggressive social engineering tactics, including phishing campaigns, are becoming more prevalent. The Scattered Spider group, responsible for ransomware attacks on Las Vegas casinos, showcases the sophistication of these tactics. Phishing help desk employees for login credentials and bypassing MFA through phishing one-time password (OTP) codes are becoming standard practices. These tactics have extended to supply chain attacks, compromising identity provider (IDP) vendors to access valuable customer information. The forecast for 2024 includes the replication and widespread adoption of such aggressive social engineering tactics, broadening the scope of initial compromise attempts beyond the traditional edge device and file transfer appliances. 2. Generative AI: The Double-Edged Sword The explosive growth of generative AI tools like ChatGPT, FraudGPT and WormGPT bring both promise and peril, but the sky is not falling as far as cybersecurity is concerned. While large language models took the stage, the fear of misuse prompted the U.S. president to issue an executive order in October 2023. At the moment, threat actors are making bank doing other things. Why bother reinventing the model when it\'s working just fine? But they\'ll morph their TTPs when detection starts to improve in those areas. On the flip side, more vendors will start injecting AI and large language models into their products and processes to boost their security offerings. Across the globe, privacy watchdogs and customers alike will demand responsible AI policies from technology companies, which means we\'ll start seeing statements being published about responsible AI policies. Expect both spectacular failures and responsible AI policies to emerge. 3. Mobile Device Phishing: The Rise of Omni-Channel Tactics take Centre Stage A notable trend for 2023 was the dramatic increase in mobile device phishing and we expect this threat to rise even more in 2024. Threat actors are strategically redirecting victims to mobile interactions, exploiting the vulnerabilities inherent in mobile platforms. Conversational abuse, including conversational smishing, has experienced exponential growth. Multi-touch campaigns aim to lure users away from desktops to mobile devices, utilizing tactics like QR codes and fraudulent voice calls | Ransomware Malware Tool Vulnerability Threat Mobile Prediction Prediction | ChatGPT ChatGPT | ★★★ |

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.

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.

Social engineering threats are increasingly difficult to distinguish from real media. What\'s worse, they can be released with great speed and at scale. That\'s because attackers can now use new forms of artificial intelligence (AI), like generative AI, to create convincing impostor articles, images, videos and audio. They can also create compelling phishing emails, as well as believable spoof browser pages and deepfake videos. These well-crafted attacks developed with generative AI are creating new security risks. They can penetrate protective defense layers by exploiting human vulnerabilities, like trust and emotional response. That\'s the buzz about generative AI. The good news is that the future is wide open to fight fire with fire. There are great possibilities for using a custom-built generative AI tool to help improve your company\'s cybersecurity awareness program. And in this post, we look at five ways your organization might do that, now or in the future. Let\'s imagine together how generative AI might help you to improve end users\' learning engagement and reduce human risk. 1. Get faster alerts about threats If your company\'s threat intelligence exposes a well-designed credential attack targeting employees, you need to be quick to alert and educate users and leadership about the threat. In the future, your company might bring in a generative AI tool that can deliver relevant warnings and alerts to your audiences faster. Generative AI applications can analyze huge amounts of data about emerging threats at greater speed and with more accuracy than traditional methods. Security awareness administrators might run queries such as: “Analyze internal credential phishing attacks for the past two weeks” “List BEC attacks for credentials targeting companies like mine right now” In just a few minutes, the tool could summarize current credential compromise threats and the specific “tells” to look for. You could then ask your generative AI tool to create actionable reporting about that threat data on the fly, which saves time because you\'re not setting up dashboards. Then, you use the tool to push out threat alerts to the business. It could also produce standard communications like email messages and social channel notifications. You might engage people further by using generative AI to create an eye-catching infographic or a short, animated video in just seconds or minutes. No need to wait days or weeks for a designer to produce that visual content. 2. Design awareness campaigns more nimbly Say that your security awareness team is planning a campaign to teach employees how to spot attacks targeting their credentials, as AI makes phishing emails more difficult to spot. Your security awareness platform or learning management system (LMS) has a huge library of content you can tap for this effort-but your team is already overworked. In the future, you might adapt a generative AI tool to reduce the manual workload by finding what information is most relevant and providing suggestions for how to use it. A generative AI application could scan your content library for training modules and awareness materials. For instance, an administrator could make queries such as: “Sort existing articles for the three biggest risks of credential theft” “Suggest training assignments that educate about document attachments” By applying this generative AI use case to searching and filtering, you would shortcut the long and tedious process of looking for material, reading each piece for context, choosing the most relevant content, and deciding how to organize what you\'ve selected. You could also ask the generative AI tool to recommend critical topics missing in the available content. The AI might even produce the basis for a tailored and personalized security campaign to help keep your people engaged. For instance, you could ask the tool to sort content based on nonstandard factors you consider interesting, such as mentioning a geographic region or holiday season. 3.

[Fingerprints All Over] Stolen Credentials Are the No. 1 Root Cause of Data Breaches
Verizon\'s DBIR always has a lot of information to unpack, so I\'ll continue my review by covering how stolen credentials play a role in attacks.
This year\'s Data Breach Investigations Report has nearly 1 million incidents in their data set, making it the most statistically relevant set of report data anywhere.
So, what does the report say about the most common threat actions that are involved in data breaches? Overall, the use of stolen credentials is the overwhelming leader in data breaches, being involved in nearly 45% of breaches – this is more than double the second-place spot of "Other" (which includes a number of types of threat actions) and ransomware, which sits at around 20% of data breaches.
According to Verizon, stolen credentials were the "most popular entry point for breaches." As an example, in Basic Web Application Attacks, the use of stolen credentials was involved in 86% of attacks. The prevalence of credential use should come as no surprise, given the number of attacks that have focused on harvesting online credentials to provide access to both cloud platforms and on-premises networks alike.
And it\'s the social engineering attacks (whether via phish, vish, SMiSh, or web) where these credentials are compromised - something that can be significantly diminished by engaging users in security awareness training to familiarize them with common techniques and examples of attacks, so when they come across an attack set on stealing credentials, the user avoids becoming a victim.

[The Mind\'s Bias] Pretexting Now Tops Phishing in Social Engineering Attacks
The New Verizon DBIR is a treasure trove of data. As we will cover a bit below, Verizon reported that 74% of data breaches Involve the "Human Element," so people are one of the most common factors contributing to successful data breaches. Let\'s drill down a bit more in the social engineering section.
They explained: "Now, who has received an email or a direct message on social media from a friend or family member who desperately needs money? Probably fewer of you. This is social engineering (pretexting specifically) and it takes more skill.
"The most convincing social engineers can get into your head and convince you that someone you love is in danger. They use information they have learned about you and your loved ones to trick you into believing the message is truly from someone you know, and they use this invented scenario to play on your emotions and create a sense of urgency. The DBIR Figure 35 shows that Pretexting is now more prevalent than Phishing in Social Engineering incidents. However, when we look at confirmed breaches, Phishing is still on top."
A social attack known as BEC, or business email compromise, can be quite intricate. In this type of attack, the perpetrator uses existing email communications and information to deceive the recipient into carrying out a seemingly ordinary task, like changing a vendor\'s bank account details. But what makes this attack dangerous is that the new bank account provided belongs to the attacker. As a result, any payments the recipient makes to that account will simply disappear.
BEC Attacks Have Nearly Doubled
It can be difficult to spot these attacks as the attackers do a lot of preparation beforehand. They may create a domain doppelganger that looks almost identical to the real one and modify the signature block to show their own number instead of the legitimate vendor.
Attackers can make many subtle changes to trick their targets, especially if they are receiving many similar legitimate requests. This could be one reason why BEC attacks have nearly doubled across the DBIR entire incident dataset, as shown in Figure 36, and now make up over 50% of incidents in this category.
Financially Motivated External Attackers Double Down on Social Engineering
Timely detection and response is crucial when dealing with social engineering attacks, as well as most other attacks. Figure 38 shows a steady increase in the median cost of BECs since 2018, now averaging around $50,000, emphasizing the significance of quick detection.
However, unlike the times we live in, this section isn\'t all doom and |

2023-05-31 19:15:27 | CVE-2023-33979 (lien direct) | GPT_ACADEMIC fournit une interface graphique pour Chatgpt / GLM.Une vulnérabilité a été trouvée dans GPT_ACADEMIM 3.37 et antérieure.Ce problème affecte un traitement inconnu du gestionnaire de fichiers de configuration des composants.La manipulation du fichier d'argument conduit à la divulgation d'informations.Étant donné qu'aucun fichier sensible n'est configuré pour être interdit, les fichiers d'informations sensibles dans certains répertoires de travail peuvent être lus via l'itinéraire «/ fichier», conduisant à une fuite d'informations sensibles.Cela affecte les utilisateurs qui utilisent des configurations de fichiers via `config.py`,` config_private.py`, `dockerfile`.Un correctif est disponible chez commit 1dcc2873d2168ad2d3d70afcb453ac1695fbdf02.En tant que solution de contournement, on peut utiliser des variables d'environnement au lieu de fichiers `config * .py` pour configurer ce projet, ou utiliser une installation Docker-Compose pour configurer ce projet.
gpt_academic provides a graphical interface for ChatGPT/GLM. A vulnerability was found in gpt_academic 3.37 and prior. This issue affects some unknown processing of the component Configuration File Handler. The manipulation of the argument file leads to information disclosure. Since no sensitive files are configured to be off-limits, sensitive information files in some working directories can be read through the `/file` route, leading to sensitive information leakage. This affects users that uses file configurations via `config.py`, `config_private.py`, `Dockerfile`. A patch is available at commit 1dcc2873d2168ad2d3d70afcb453ac1695fbdf02. As a workaround, one may use environment variables instead of `config*.py` files to configure this project, or use docker-compose installation to configure this project. |

[Double Trouble] 78% of Ransomware Victims Face Multiple Extortions in Scary Trend
New data sheds light on how likely your organization will succumb to a ransomware attack, whether you can recover your data, and what\'s inhibiting a proper security posture.
You have a solid grasp on what your organization\'s cybersecurity stance does and does not include. But is it enough to stop today\'s ransomware attacks? CyberEdge\'s 2023 Cyberthreat Defense Report provides some insight into just how prominent ransomware attacks are and what\'s keeping orgs from stopping them.
According to the report, in 2023:
7% of organizations were victims of a ransomware attack
7% of those paid a ransom
73% were able to recover data
Only 21.6% experienced solely the encryption of data and no other form of extortion
It\'s this last data point that interests me. Nearly 78% of victim organizations experienced one or more additional forms of extortion. CyberEdge mentions threatening to publicly release data, notifying customers or media, and committing a DDoS attack as examples of additional threats mentioned by respondents.
IT decision makers were asked to rate on a scale of 1-5 (5 being the highest) what were the top inhibitors of establishing and maintaining an adequate defense. The top inhibitor (with an average rank of 3.66) was a lack of skilled personnel – we\'ve long known the cybersecurity industry is lacking a proper pool of qualified talent.
In second place, with an average ranking of 3.63, is low security awareness among employees – something only addressed by creating a strong security culture with new-school security awareness training at the center of it all.
