2022-08-18 08:00:00 Ukraine and the fragility of agriculture security (lien direct) By Joe Marshall.The war in Ukraine has had far-reaching global implications and one of the most immediate effects felt will be on the global supply chain for food. This war-induced fragility has exposed the weaknesses of how we feed ourselves globally. Ransomware cartels and other adversaries are well aware of this and are actively exploiting that fragility. For the past six years, Cisco Talos has been actively involved in assisting public and private institutions in Ukraine to defend themselves against state-sponsored actors. Our involvement stretches the gamut from commercial to critical infrastructure, to election security. Our presence has afforded us unique opportunities and observations about cybersecurity in a macro and micro way. Ukraine has been a frequent victim of state-sponsored cyber attacks aimed at critical infrastructures like power and transportation. Talos is proud to stand with our partners in Ukraine and help defend their critical networks and help users there maintain access to necessary services. Now that Russia has invaded Ukraine, those threats have escalated to kinetic attacks that are wreaking havoc on a critical element of our world: agriculture and our global food supply chain. Even worse is the implications this war will have for future cyber attacks, as fragility is considered a lucrative element in deciding victimology by threat actors like ransomware cartels. To truly grasp the implications of the war in Ukraine, we have to examine how vital Ukrainian agriculture feeds the world, the current state of affairs, and what this means for the global cybersecurity posture to protect agricultural assets. Where there is weakness, there is opportunityRansomware cartels and their affiliates are actively targeting the agricultural industry. Moreover, these actors have done their homework and are targeting agricultural companies during the two times of the year where they cannot suffer disruptions: planting and harvesting. Per the published FBI PIN Alert: “Cyber actors may perceive cooperatives as lucrative targets with a willingness to pay due to the time-sensitive role they play in agricultural production.” This is far from unusual for these adversaries - they are shrewd and calculating, and understand their victims' weaknesses and industries.

NoticeBored.webp 2022-08-06 10:46:21 CISO workshop slides (lien direct) A glossy, nicely-constructed and detailed PowerPoint slide deck by Microsoft Security caught my beady this morning. The title 'CISO Workshop: Security Program and Strategy' with 'Your Name Here' suggests it might be a template for use in a workshop/course bringing CISOs up to speed on the governance, strategic and architectural aspects of information security, but in fact given the amount of technical detail, it appears to be aimed at informing IT/technology managers about IT or cybersecurity, specifically. Maybe it is intended for newly-appointed CISOs or more junior managers who aspire to be CISOs, helping them clamber up the pyramid (slide 87 of 142): Malware Vulnerability Threat Patching Guideline Medical Cloud Uber APT 38 APT 37 APT 28 APT 19 APT 15 APT 10 APT 34 Guam
SANS.webp 2017-05-10 02:16:35 OAuth, and It\'s High Time for Some Personal "Security-Scaping" Today, (Wed, May 10th) (lien direct) After Bojans recent story on the short-lived Google Docs OAuth issues last week (https://isc.sans.edu/forums/diary/OAUTH+phishing+against+Google+Docs+beware/22372/), I got to thinking. The compromise didnt affect too many people, but it got me thinking about OAuth. The piece of OAuth that I focused on is the series of permisssions and tokens that allow interaction between applications, which is what the recent compromise took advantage of. My personal mantra is the best day to change the password for X is today, and as part of this Ive expanded that proverb to include looking at application permissions and privacy settings! For instance, using Googles Security Checkup at https://myaccount.google.com/security , I found that at some point in the past, I granted TripAdvisor access to my Gmail account. This wasnt intentional, it was probably an OK prompt during an install or update process you know, the ones you sometimes just click quickly / accidentally without paying attention to? Then wonder if you just clicked something dumb right after? Anyway, yes, one of those - *click* - gone now! I moved on to Facebook - application settings are here: https://www.facebook.com/settings and privacy settings are here: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=privacy Really, everything in that page needs to be looked at!. Me, I was surprised to find that I was using an older email address for my Facebook login (oops) with the login buried in my iPad app, it wasnt something I had thought about (plus Im not in facebook too much lately) Other sites of interest: Twitter: https://twitter.com/settings/account In particular: https://twitter.com/settings/safety And: https://twitter.com/settings/applications Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/psettings/ Really, most apps that you run have a privacy or a security page it never seems to be front-and-center though, in fact for many of the apps I access primarily from a dedicated app on my phone or tablet, I needed to go to the real application in my browser to find these settings. As you go, be sure to translate the security questions to plain English.
