Thanksgiving Cyber feast: Safeguarding against seasonal scams

The content of this post is solely the responsibility of the author.  AT&T does not adopt or endorse any of the views, positions, or information provided by the author in this article.  As the Thanksgiving season rapidly approaches, many look forward to the warmth of family gatherings, the aroma of roasted turkey, and the joy of gratitude. Yet, just as we prepare our homes and hearts for this festive season, cybercriminals are gearing up to unleash a different kind of feast—a cyber feast—rife with sophisticated scams targeting unsuspecting individuals and businesses alike.  This article will take a closer look at various Thanksgiving-themed cyber threats, illuminating the nature and impact of devious digital deceptions while unpacking the methodologies these digital bad actors try to use. But fear not, because we’ll also offer some key strategies to help you secure and fortify your digital domains throughout the holidays. The rise of seasonal cyber threats As November and the holiday season roll around, a surge in online activity sweeps across the United States, both good and bad. Thanksgiving not only signifies a time of family gatherings and festive meals but also marks the beginning of the holiday shopping season, especially with Black Friday and Cyber Monday right around the corner—in response to this, cybercriminals see a ripe opportunity to scam.  According to the New Jersey Cybersecurity & Communications Integration Cell, recent reports had indicated. “spoofed emails were sent appearing to originate from legitimate organizations and contained [Thanksgiving-themed subject lines]’” noting how criminals and bad actors exploit the spirit of the season. Furthermore, they highlight that ”an Emotet banking trojan campaign was [also] observed using Thanksgiving lures.” Criminals know that with increased online transactions comes increased vulnerability, so they capitalize on the holiday spirit, designing scams that blend seamlessly with genuine promotional content, making it harder for individuals to distinguish between what\'s authentic and what\'s not. The risks of phishing One of the primary ways cybercriminals target individuals and businesses is through phishing attacks. Around Thanksgiving time, these types of scams might manifest as emails purporting to offer massive discounts, invitations to exclusive Thanksgiving events, or even charitable appeals meant to tug at the heartstrings to draw you in.  However, phishing isn’t restricted to just email—with their vast user bases, social media platforms are also prime targets for scams of all kinds.  Cybercriminals often create fake profiles or pages promoting too-good-to-be-true Thanksgiving deals, leading unsuspecting and unknowing victims to phishing websites or even tricking them into sharing personal information that can be further exploited. The hidden benefits of cybersecurity When businesses transform their robust cybersecurity processes into content, it becomes a powerful tool for brand awareness and elevation. Sharing with your audience the measures you\'ve implemented reassures them of the sanctity of their data. It\'s not just about telling them they\'re safe; it\'s about showing them. For potential customers, especially in niche markets, tangible information is a beacon of trust. So when they can actively see and better understand Malware Tool Vulnerability Threat ★★

#### Description Une nouvelle variante de l'agent Tesla a été découverte qui utilise l'extension de fichier archive ZPAQ et .wav pour infecter les systèmes et voler des informations à environ 40 navigateurs Web et divers clients de messagerie.ZPAQ est un format de compression de fichiers qui offre un meilleur rapport de compression et une fonction de journalisation par rapport à des formats largement utilisés comme ZIP et RAR.Cependant, le ZPAQ a un support logiciel limité, ce qui rend difficile le travail, en particulier pour les utilisateurs sans expertise technique.Le fichier exécutable .NET est gonflé avec zéro octets, ce qui permet aux acteurs de menace de contourner les mesures de sécurité traditionnelles et d'augmenter l'efficacité de leur attaque. L'utilisation du format de compression ZPAQ soulève plus de questions que de réponses.Les hypothèses ici sont que les acteurs de la menace ciblent un groupe spécifique de personnes qui ont des connaissances techniques ou utilisent des outils d'archives moins connus, ou ils testent d'autres techniques pour diffuser plus rapidement les logiciels malveillants et contourner les logiciels de sécurité. Le malware utilise Telegram en tant que C&C en raison de son utilisation juridique généralisée et du fait que son trafic est souvent autorisé à travers des pare-feu, ce qui en fait un support utile pour une communication secrète.Comme tout autre voleur, l'agent Tesla peut nuire non seulement aux particuliers mais aussi aux organisations.Il a gagné en popularité parmi les cybercriminels pour de nombreuses raisons, notamment la facilité d'utilisation, la polyvalence et l'abordabilité sur le Dark Web. #### URL de référence (s) 1. https://www.gdatasoftware.com/blog/2023/11/37822-agent-Tesla-zpaq #### Date de publication 20 novembre 2023 #### Auteurs) Anna Lvova
#### Description A new variant of Agent Tesla has been discovered that uses the ZPAQ archive and .wav file extension to infect systems and steal information from approximately 40 web browsers and various email clients. ZPAQ is a file compression format that offers a better compression ratio and journaling function compared to widely used formats like ZIP and RAR. However, ZPAQ has limited software support, making it difficult to work with, especially for users without technical expertise. The .NET executable file is bloated with zero bytes, which allows threat actors to bypass traditional security measures and increase the effectiveness of their attack. The usage of the ZPAQ compression format raises more questions than answers. The assumptions here are that either threat actors target a specific group of people who have technical knowledge or use less widely known archive tools, or they are testing other techniques to spread malware faster and bypass security software. The malware uses Telegram as a C&C due to its widespread legal usage and the fact that its traffic is often allowed through firewalls, making it a useful medium for covert communication. Like any other stealer, Agent Tesla can harm not only private individuals but also organizations. It has gained popularity among cybercriminals for many reasons including ease of use, versatility, and affordability on the Dark Web. #### Reference URL(s) 1. https://www.gdatasoftware.com/blog/2023/11/37822-agent-tesla-zpaq #### Publication Date November 20, 2023 #### Author(s) Anna Lvova

Preventing MFA Fatigue Attacks: Safeguarding Your Organization
(lien direct)
Gaining access to critical systems and stealing sensitive data are top objectives for most cybercriminals. Social engineering and phishing are powerful tools to help them achieve both. That\'s why multifactor authentication (MFA) has become such an important security measure for businesses and users. Without MFA as part of the user authentication process, it is much less challenging for an attacker with stolen credentials to authenticate a user\'s account.  The primary goal of MFA is to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, especially in situations where passwords alone may not provide enough protection. Even if an attacker steals a user\'s password, with MFA they still need the second factor (and maybe others) to gain access to an account. Examples of MFA factors include biometrics, like fingerprints, and signals from user devices, like GPS location.   MFA isn\'t a perfect solution, though-it can be bypassed. Adversaries are relentless in their efforts to undermine any security defenses standing in the way of their success. (The evolution of phish kits for stealing MFA tokens is evidence of that.) But sometimes, attackers will choose to take an in-your-face approach that is not very creative or technical. MFA fatigue attacks fall into that category.  What are MFA fatigue attacks-and how do they work?  MFA fatigue attacks, also known as MFA bombing or MFA spamming, are a form of social engineering. They are designed to wear down a user\'s patience so that they will accept an MFA request out of frustration or annoyance-and thus enable an attacker to access their account or device.  Many people encounter MFA requests daily, or even multiple times per day, as they sign-in to various apps, sites, systems and platforms. Receiving MFA requests via email, phone or other devices as part of that process is a routine occurrence.   So, it is logical for a user to assume that if they receive a push notification from an account that they know requires MFA, it is a legitimate request. And if they are very busy at the time that they receive several push notifications in quick succession to authenticate an account, they may be even more inclined to accept a request without scrutinizing it.  Here\'s an overview of how an MFA attack works:  A malicious actor obtains the username and password of their target. They can achieve this in various ways, from password-cracking tactics like brute-force attacks to targeted phishing attacks to purchasing stolen credentials on the dark web.  The attacker then starts to send MFA notifications to the user continuously, usually via automation, until that individual feels overwhelmed and approves the login attempt just to make the requests stop. (Usually, the push notifications from MFA solutions require the user to simply click a “yes” button to authenticate from the registered device or email account.)  Once the attacker has unauthorized access to the account, they can steal sensitive data, install malware and do other mischief, including impersonating the user they have compromised-taking their actions as far as they can or want to go.  3 examples of successful MFA fatigue attacks  To help your users understand the risk of these attacks, you may want to include some real-world examples in your security awareness program on this topic. Here are three notable incidents, which are all associated with the same threat actor:  Uber. In September 2022, Uber reported that an attacker affiliated with the threat actor group Lapsus$ had compromised a contractor\'s account. The attacker may have purchased corporate account credentials on the dark web, Uber said in a security update. The contractor received several MFA notifications as the attacker tried to access the account-and eventually accepted one. After the attacker logged in to the account, they proceeded to access other accounts, achieving privilege escalation. One action the attacker took was to reconfigure Uber\'s OpenDNS to display a graphic image on some of the company\'s internal sites.  Cisco.

Demystifying AI and ML: Six Critical Questions to Ask Your Cybersecurity Vendor
(lien direct)
As cyber threats continue to evolve at an unprecedented pace, many organizations are turning to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in hopes of keeping up.  While these advanced technologies hold immense promise, they\'re also more complex and far less efficient than traditional threat detection approaches. The tradeoff isn\'t always worth it.  And not all AI and ML processes are created equal. The models used, the size and quality of the data sets they\'re trained on-and whether an advanced computational process is suitable for the problem at hand-are all critical factors to consider when deciding how both AI and ML fit into your cybersecurity strategy.  In this blog post, we explore the vital questions you should ask your cybersecurity vendor about these technologies. We will also demystify their role in safeguarding your people, data and environment.  Note: Though often conflated, AL and ML are related but distinct concepts. For simplicity, we\'re using AI when discussing the broader technology category and ML to discuss narrower learning models used in AI.  Question 1: Why is AI suitable for this security problem?  You\'ve probably heard the old saying that when your only tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. While AI has rightly generated enthusiasm in cybersecurity, it may not be the optimal approach to every task.  On one hand, the technologies can help analyze large amounts of data and find anomalies, trends and behaviors that indicate potential attacks. And the technologies can automate response and mitigation of security incidents.   But depending on the size and complexity of the learning model, they can also be computationally intensive (read: expensive) to maintain. And worse, execution time can be much longer than less complex approaches such as rules and signatures.  On the other hand, rules and signatures are static, so they don\'t automatically evolve to detect new threats. But they\'re also fast, easy on computing resources and highly effective for certain aspects of threat detection. Other signals, such as email sender reputation and IP addresses, can also be as effective as AI for many detections-and in most cases are faster and much more cost-effective.  Getting AI right starts with understanding what cybersecurity tasks they\'re best suited to and applying them to the right problems. In the same vein, how the technology is applied matters.   In cybersecurity, every second counts. Making decisions in real time and blocking malicious content before it can be delivered is today\'s key challenge. If the processing time of the vendor\'s AI means the technology is relegated solely to post-delivery inspection and remediation, that\'s a major drawback.   Question 2: Where do you get your training data?  The performance of ML models hinges on the source and quality of their data. That\'s because AI models learn from examples and patterns, not rules. And that requires a large amount of data. The more data, and the higher the quality of that data, the better the model can learn and generalize to new conditions.  Like any ML model, those used in cybersecurity need a wide-ranging, diverse data set that accurately reflects the real world. Or more precisely, the data used to train your vendor\'s AI model should reflect your world-the threats targeting your organization and users.  Finding data for general-purpose AI applications is easy. It\'s all over the internet. But threat data-especially data well-suited for the type of ML model the vendor intends to use- is scarcer. Gaining malware samples is a lot harder than acquiring data used in applications such as image and natural language processing.   First, not much attack data is publicly available. Most security vendors hold on tightly to the threat data they collect, and for good reason. Beyond the obvious competitive advantages it offers, threat data is sensitive and comes with a bevy of privacy concerns. As a result, few cybersecurity vendors have a dataset large enough to trai Malware Tool Vulnerability Threat ★★

Free proxies and the hidden dangers
(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.  Data privacy continues to be a growing concern for all internet users. While the internet gives us so much more freedom and access to information we might not have otherwise, online privacy continues to be a significant risk. It’s not just cybercriminals that invade your privacy, but businesses as well. Data has become more valuable than ever, and companies will do whatever they can to collect your information. Proxies have been a popular option for protecting your online privacy. Now, these proxies offer even more benefits and specific use cases. You might even be looking into getting one and considering a free proxy. In this article, we’ll look at free proxies and why they can be a bigger danger than you might realize. We’ll also examine why residential proxies from a reliable provider like Smartproxy are better if security and privacy are your goals. Keep reading to discover how free proxies work and the dangers they pose. What is a proxy? A proxy is an intermediary server that accepts and forwards all your requests to the web server. This means that instead of connecting directly to the internet, you first connect to the proxy server. You might be wondering why using an intermediary server like a proxy is effective. Usually, it’s better to cut out the middleman, right? In this case, by connecting to the proxy first, your personal information, such as your IP and other associated data, is replaced by a new IP. This completely hides your information from the websites you visit. By changing your IP address through a proxy, websites or apps cannot track you, and your data is more secure. However, that’s not all a proxy does. What can you use a proxy for? By now, we know that proxies are great tools when it comes to online security and privacy. By hiding your real IP, the websites that you visit won’t be able to collect the data associated with your IP. This usually includes your name, location, ISP, devices, operating system, and more. Residential proxies, in particular, are great for anonymity because they use the IPs from real devices. As such, they don’t look like proxies and are much less likely to be detected as such. However, proxies can be used for many other ways aside from security and privacy. Another use is managing multiple social media accounts. Social media platforms are quick to issue IP bans if they find the same IP address creating multiple accounts. Account limits are usually only a handful per IP address, and the moment you create too many, you might receive an IP ban. This is frustrating if you’re a digital marketer who creates and manages accounts for clients. However, by using a proxy, you can change the IP that creates the accounts and avoid IP bans. Another use of proxies is related to automation. This can affect a wide range of automated tools, from sneaker bots to data scrapers and even social media automation. Many websites and social media platforms block automation tools as part of their anti-bot protection. However, by linking residential proxies to these tools, you can make them appear like natural users and bypass these limitations. However, to be successful, you’ll need to use residential proxies with a real IP. Finally, proxies can also help improve your connection speed and stabilize it. This is because you’re routing all your traffic through larger servers instead of your own device. These servers are much more capa Malware Tool Vulnerability Threat ★★

How prepared is your company for a supply chain attack?

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.  In a supply chain attack, hackers aim to breach a target\'s defenses by exploiting vulnerabilities in third-party companies. These attacks typically follow one of two paths. The first involves targeting a service provider or contractor, often a smaller entity with less robust security. The second path targets software developers, embedding malicious code into their products. This code, masquerading as a legitimate update, may later infiltrate the IT systems of customers. This article delves into specific instances of supply chain attacks, explores the inherent risks, examines common strategies employed by attackers, as well as effective defense mechanisms, and offers supply chain risk management tips. Understanding the scope and danger of supply chain cyberattacks In their assaults on supply chains, attackers are driven by various objectives, which can range from espionage and extortion to other malicious intents. These attacks are merely one of many strategies hackers use to infiltrate a victim\'s infrastructure. What makes supply chain attacks particularly dangerous is their unpredictability and extensive reach. Companies can find themselves compromised by mere misfortune. A case in point is the 2020 incident involving SolarWinds, a network management software firm. The company fell victim to a hack that resulted in extensive breaches across various government agencies and private corporations. Over 18,000 SolarWinds customers unknowingly installed malicious updates, which led to an undetected, widespread malware infiltration. Why do companies fall victim to supply chain attacks? Several factors contribute to the susceptibility of companies to supply chain attacks: Inadequate security measures A staggering 84% of businesses have high-risk vulnerabilities within their networks. For companies involved in software production and distribution, a supply chain attack represents a significant breach of security protocols. Reliance on unsafe components Many firms utilize components from third-party vendors and open-source software (OSS), seeking to cut costs and expedite product development. However, this practice can backfire by introducing severe vulnerabilities into a company\'s infrastructure. OSS platforms and repositories frequently contain security loopholes. Cybersecurity professionals have identified over 10,000 GitHub repositories susceptible to RepoJacking, a form of supply chain attack exploiting dependency hijacking. Furthermore, the layered nature of OSS, often integrating third-party components, creates a chain of transitive dependencies and potential security threats. Overconfidence in partners Not many companies conduct thorough security evaluations of their service providers, typically relying on superficial questionnaires or legal compliance checks. These measures fall short of providing an accurate picture of a partner\'s cybersecurity maturity. In most cases, real audits are an afterthought triggered by a security incident that has already taken place. Additional risk factors precipit Malware Hack Tool Vulnerability Threat ★★
