2023-07-13 00:00:00 | Le Ransomware Threat Landscape H1-23 Ce rapport fournit une analyse complète de toutes les attaques de ransomwares connues qui ont été signalées au cours des deux premiers trimestres de 2023. The Ransomware Threat Landscape H1-23This report provides a comprehensive analysis of all known ransomware attacks that were reported during the first two quarters of 2023.Read More (lien direct) |
IntroductionâIn this comprehensive report, Kovrr collected and analyzed data on all known ransomware attacks reported during the first two quarters of 2023. The data was collected from multiple sources, all aggregated and updated regularly in Kovrrâs Threat Intelligence Database. The database includes data on many different types of cyber incidents, but this report includes only data on ransomware attacks, excluding data on any other type of attacks. The ransomware groups covered in this report all operate as a RaaS (Ransomware as a Service), a business model through which the ransomware binary and operation are sold or leased to operators, called affiliates. This means that a ransomware operation is composed of many different individuals, with separate roles, and the extortion profits are divided between them. Some individuals are responsible for initial access to the targets, others to lateral movement to interesting and profitable areas in the victim network, while others are responsible for the ransomware infection itself, and others negotiate with the victim after infection. âSummaryâThese are the main insights from the collected data:There is a 32% drop in attack amounts in H1-23 compared to H2-22. It is important to note that this drop can also be due to delayed reporting of cyber incidents by attacked companies.The top ten most active groups observed during the first half of 2023 are AvosLocker, Bianlian, BlackBasta, BlackCat, Clop, Lockbit 3.0, MedusaLocker, Play, Royal, and ViceSociety. All 10 actors accounted for 87% of attacks during this period, while the top 3 groups (Lockbit 3.0, BlackCat, and Clop) accounted for 53% of all claimed attacks during this period. The average lifespan of a ransomware group is 262 days, while the median is 167 days. In an average month, 18.3 different ransomware groups are active.The most targeted industry is the Services industry, while companies with a revenue of $10M-$50M are the most common targets. âData Collection Methods and Possible BiasesâThe data for this research was collected from Kovrrâs Threat Intelligence Database, that collects data from multiple sources, and includes information on different types of cyber incidents. Specifically for this report, data was collected mainly from ransomware leak sites, public filings of attacked companies, and news reports on ransomware attacks. The data from ransomware leak sites was collected mainly from Double Extortion (https://doubleextortion.com), a data source providing up to date information from ransomware leak sites. The rest of the data was collected using proprietary sources and methods. This data was then combined with additional sources to collect company business information and is limited to ransomware attacks that occurred and were reported in the first two quarters of 2023, between January 1st 2023 and June 31st 2023. There are several possible biases in the data that may affect the results presented in the report. Data collection for this research relied either on a company filing a notification on a ransomware attack, or a ransomware group uploading information about a victim. Therefore, in the case that a company decided not to file a notice of a ransomware attack, for example due to not being legally required to do so, it will not be included in our data. This means that companies located in countries that require data breach notifications, such as companies in the United States or the European Union, are expected to have a higher representation in our data. This is also true for companies in more regulated industries, such as healthcare. Regarding data retrieved from ransom group sites, there may be cases where an attacker did not upload data on the attack victim, as the victim paid the ransom, or for other reasons. This means that some victims that have quickly paid ransoms following an attack might not appear in our data. Additionally,, we have previously researched | Ransomware Data Breach Vulnerability Threat Cloud | APT 17 | ★★★ |

[Heads Up] FBI Warns Against New Criminal QR Code Scams
QR codes have been around for many years. While they were adopted for certain niche uses, they never did quite reach their full potential. They are a bit like Rick Astley in that regard, really popular for one song, but well after the boat had sailed. Do not get me wrong, Rick Astley achieved a lot. In recent years, he has become immortalized as a meme and Rick roller, but he could have been so much more.
However, in recent years, with lockdown and the drive to keep things at arms length, QR codes have become an efficient way to facilitate contactless communications, or the transfer of offers without physically handing over a coupon. As this has grown in popularity, more people have become familiar with how to generate their own QR codes and how to use them as virtual business cards, discount codes, links to videos and all sorts of other things.
QRime Codes
As with most things, once they begin to gain a bit of popularity, criminals move in to see how they can manipulate the situation to their advantage. Recently, we have seen fake QR codes stuck to parking meters enticing unwitting drivers to scan the code, and hand over their payment details believing they were paying for parking, whereas they were actually handing over their payment information to criminals.
The rise in QR code fraud resulted in the FBI releasing an advisory warning against fake QR codes that are being used to scam users. In many cases, a fake QR code will lead people to a website that looks like the intended legitimate site. So, the usual verification process of checking the URL and any other red flags apply.

Targeted Attack Campaign Against ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus Delivers Godzilla Webshells, NGLite Trojan and KdcSponge Stealer
(published: November 8, 2021)
US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has released an alert about advanced persistent threat (APT) actors exploiting vulnerability in self-service password management and single sign-on solution known as ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus. PaloAlto, Microsoft & Lumen Technologies did a joint effort to track, analyse and mitigate this threat. The attack deployed a webshell and created a registry key for persistence. The actor leveraged leased infrastructure in the US to scan hundreds of organizations and compromised at least nine global organizations across technology, defense, healthcare and education industries.
Analyst Comment: This actor has used some unique techniques in these attacks including: a blockchain based legitimate remote control application, and credential stealing tool which hooks specific functions from the LSASS process. It’s important to make sure your EDR solution is configured to and supports detecting such advanced techniques in order to detect such attacks.

German-made FinSpy Spyware Found in Egypt, and Mac and Linux Versions Revealed
(published: September 25, 2020)
Security Researchers from Amnesty International have identified new variants of FinSpy, spyware that can access private data and record audio/video. While used as a law enforcement tool, authoritarian governments have been using FinSpy to spy on activists and dissidents. Spreading through fake Flash Player updates, the malware is installed as root with use of exploits, and persistence is gained by creating a logind.pslist file. Once a system is infected with the malware, it has the ability to run shell scripts, record audio, keylogging, view network information, and list files. Samples have been found of FinSpy for macOS, Windows, Android, and Linux.
Recommendation: Defense-in-depth (layering of security mechanisms, redundancy, fail-safe defense processes) is the best way to ensure safety from threat actors, including a focus on both network and host-based security. Prevention and detection capabilities should also be in place. Furthermore, all employees should be educated on the risks of spearphishing and how to identify such attempts.

Magento Credit Card Stealing Malware: gstaticapi
(published: September 25, 2020)
Security researchers, at Sucuri, have identified a malicious script, dubbed “gstaticapi,” that is designed to steal payment information from Magento-based websites. The script first attempts to find the “checkout” string in a web browser URL and, if found, will create an element to the web pages header. This allows the JavaScript to handle external code-loading capabilities that are used to process the theft of billing and payment card information.
Recommendation: Sometimes webmasters discover that one of their sites has been compromised months after the initial infection. Websites, much like personal workstations, require constant maintenance and upkeep in order to adapt to the latest threats. In addition to keeping server software up to date, it is critical that all external-facing assets are monitored and scanned for vulnerabilities. The ability to easily restore from backup, incident response planning, and customer communication channels should all be established before a breach occurs.
