In cybersecurity, AI is poised to transform digital defense, empowering defenders and enhancing our collective security. Large language models (LLMs) open new possibilities for defenders, from sifting through complex telemetry to secure coding, vulnerability discovery, and streamlining operations. However, some of these same AI capabilities are also available to attackers, leading to understandable anxieties about the potential for AI to be misused for malicious purposes.  Much of the current discourse around cyber threat actors\' misuse of AI is confined to theoretical research. While these studies demonstrate the potential for malicious exploitation of AI, they don\'t necessarily reflect the reality of how AI is currently being used by threat actors in the wild. To bridge this gap, we are sharing a comprehensive analysis of how threat actors interacted with Google\'s AI-powered assistant, Gemini. Our analysis was grounded by the expertise of Google\'s Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG), which combines decades of experience tracking threat actors on the front lines and protecting Google, our users, and our customers from government-backed attackers, targeted 0-day exploits, coordinated information operations (IO), and serious cyber crime networks. We believe the private sector, governments, educational institutions, and other stakeholders must work together to maximize AI\'s benefits while also reducing the risks of abuse.

APT45 has gradually expanded into financially-motivated operations, and the group\'s suspected development and deployment of ransomware sets it apart from other North Korean operators.  APT45 and activity clusters suspected of being linked to the group are strongly associated with a distinct genealogy of malware families separate from peer North Korean operators like TEMP.Hermit and APT43.  Among the groups assessed to operate from the Democratic People\'s Republic of Korea (DPRK), APT45 has been the most frequently observed targeting critical infrastructure. Overview Mandiant assesses with high confidence that APT45 is a moderately sophisticated cyber operator that supports the interests of the DPRK. Since at least 2009, APT45 has carried out a range of cyber operations aligned with the shifting geopolitical interests of the North Korean state. Although the group\'s earliest observed activities consisted of espionage campaigns against government agencies and defense industries, APT45 has expanded its remit to financially-motivated operations, including targeting of the financial vertical; we also assess with moderate confidence that APT45 has engaged in the development of ransomware. Additionally, while multiple DPRK-nexus groups focused on healthcare and pharmaceuticals during the initial stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, APT45 has continued to target this vertical longer than other groups, suggesting an ongoing mandate to collect related information. Separately, the group has conducted operations against nuclear-related entities, underscoring its role in supporting DPRK priorities. Shifts in Targeting and Expanding Operations Similar to other cyber threat activity attributed to North Korea-nexus groups, shifts in APT45 operations have reflected the DPRK\'s changing priorities. Malware samples indicate the group was active as early as 2009, although an observed focus on government agencies and the defense industry was observed beginning in 2017. Identified activity in 2019 aligned with Pyongyang\'s continued interest in nuclear issues and energy. Although it is not clear if financially-motivated operations are a focus of APT45\'s current mandate, the group is distinct from other North Korean operators in its suspected interest in ransomware. Given available information, it is possible that APT45 is carrying out financially-motivated cybercrime not only in support of its own operations but to generate funds for other North Korean state priorities.

Elections attract threat activity from a variety of threat actors including: state-sponsored actors, cyber criminals, hacktivists, insiders, and information operations as-a-service entities. Mandiant assesses with high confidence that state-sponsored actors pose the most serious cybersecurity risk to elections. Operations targeting election-related infrastructure can combine cyber intrusion activity, disruptive and destructive capabilities, and information operations, which include elements of public-facing advertisement and amplification of threat activity claims. Successful targeting does not automatically translate to high impact. Many threat actors have struggled to influence or achieve significant effects, despite their best efforts.  When we look across the globe we find that the attack surface of an election involves a wide variety of entities beyond voting machines and voter registries. In fact, our observations of past cycles indicate that cyber operations target the major players involved in campaigning, political parties, news and social media more frequently than actual election infrastructure.   Securing elections requires a comprehensive understanding of many types of threats and tactics, from distributed denial of service (DDoS) to data theft to deepfakes, that are likely to impact elections in 2024. It is vital to understand the variety of relevant threat vectors and how they relate, and to ensure mitigation strategies are in place to address the full scope of potential activity.  Election organizations should consider steps to harden infrastructure against common attacks, and utilize account security tools such as Google\'s Advanced Protection Program to protect high-risk accounts. Introduction  The 2024 global election cybersecurity landscape is characterized by a diversity of targets, tactics, and threats. An expansive ecosystem of systems, administrators, campaign infrastructure, and public communications venues must be secured against a diverse array of operators and methods. Any election cybersecurity strategy should begin with a survey of the threat landscape to build a more proactive and tailored security posture.  The cybersecurity community must keep pace as more than two billion voters are expected to head to the polls in 2024. With elections in more than an estimated 50 countries, there is an opportunity to dynamically track how threats to democracy evolve. Understanding how threats are targeting one country will enable us to better anticipate and prepare for upcoming elections globally. At the same time, we must also appreciate the unique context of different countries. Election threats to South Africa, India, and the United States will inevitably differ in some regard. In either case, there is an opportunity for us to prepare with the advantage of intelligence.  ]]> 2024-04-25T10:00:00+00:00 https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/threat-intelligence/cyber-threats-global-elections/ www.secnews.physaphae.fr/article.php?IdArticle=8500393 False Ransomware,Malware,Hack,Tool,Vulnerability,Threat,Legislation,Cloud,Technical APT 40,APT 29,APT 28,APT 43,APT 31,APT 42 3.0000000000000000 ProofPoint - Cyber Firms 2024-04-16T06:00:54+00:00 https://www.proofpoint.com/us/blog/threat-insight/social-engineering-dmarc-abuse-ta427s-art-information-gathering www.secnews.physaphae.fr/article.php?IdArticle=8483299 False Malware,Tool,Threat,Conference APT 37,APT 43 2.0000000000000000 The Hacker News - The Hacker News est un blog de news de hack (surprenant non?)

The group usually launches spear phishing attacks against national defense, defense industries, media, diplomacy, national organizations, and academic sectors. Their attacks aim to steal internal information and technology from organizations. While the Kimsuky group typically uses spear phishing attacks for initial access, most of their recent attacks involve the use of shortcut-type malware in LNK file format. Although LNK malware comprise a large part of recent attacks, cases using JavaScripts or malicious documents are continuing to be detected. Such attack cases that use JavaScript-type malware usually involve the distribution of AppleSeed. In addition to JavaScript, Excel macro malware are also used to install AppleSeed. AppleSeed is a backdoor that can receive the threat actor\'s commands from the C&C server and execute the received commands. The threat actor can use AppleSeed to control the infected system. It also offers features such as a downloader that installs additional malware, keylogging and taking screenshots, and stealing information by collecting files from the user system and sending them. AlphaSeed is a malware developed in Golang and supports similar features to AppleSeed such as command execution and infostealing. #### Reference URL(s) 1. https://asec.ahnlab.com/en/60054/ #### Publication Date December 27, 2023 #### Author(s) Sanseo ]]> 2023-12-28T19:18:50+00:00 https://community.riskiq.com/article/461188d1 www.secnews.physaphae.fr/article.php?IdArticle=8430436 False Malware,Threat,Prediction APT 43 3.0000000000000000 AhnLab - Korean Security Firm Les activités de Kimsuky Group & # 8217;Les activités d'autres types étaient relativement faibles.De plus, des échantillons de phishing ont été trouvés dans l'infrastructure connue pour la distribution de logiciels malveillants antérieurs (fleurs, randomquery et appleseed), et des échantillons de babyshark ont été découverts dans l'infrastructure RandomQuery.Cela suggère la probabilité de plusieurs types de logiciels malveillants en utilisant une seule infrastructure.Rapport de tendance AUG_TRÉTÉE sur le groupe Kimsuk

The Kimsuky group’s activities in August 2023 showed a notable surge in the BabyShark type, while the activities of other types were relatively low. Also, phishing samples were found in the infrastructure known for distributing previous malware (FlowerPower, RandomQuery, and AppleSeed), and BabyShark samples were discovered in the RandomQuery infrastructure.

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.

Trending Cyber News and Threat Intelligence Deconstructing Amadey’s Latest Multi-Stage Attack and Malware Distribution (published: May 5, 2023) McAfee researchers have detected a multi-stage attack that starts with a trojanized wextract.exe, Windows executable used to extract files from a cabinet (CAB) file. It was used to deliver the AgentTesla, Amadey botnet, LockBit ransomware, Redline Stealer, and other malicious binaries. To avoid detection, the attackers use obfuscation and disable Windows Defender through the registry thus stopping users from turning it back on through the Defender settings. Analyst Comment: Threat actors are always adapting to the security environment to remain effective. New techniques can still be spotted with behavioral analysis defenses and social engineering training. Users should report suspicious files with double extensions such as .EXE.MUI. Indicators associated with this campaign are available in the Anomali platform and users are advised to block these on their infrastructure.

According to Check Point researchers, FluHorse was targeting East Asia (Taiwan and Vietnam) while remaining undetected for months. This stealthiness is achieved by sticking to minimal functions while also relying on a custom virtual machine that comes with the Flutter user interface software development kit. FluHorse is being distributed via emails that prompt the recipient to install the app and once installed, it asks for the user’s credit card or banking data. If a second factor authentication is needed to commit banking fraud, FluHorse tells the user to wait for 10-15 minutes while intercepting codes by installing a listener for all incoming SMS messages.

Trending Cyber News and Threat Intelligence First-Ever Attack Leveraging Kubernetes RBAC to Backdoor Clusters (published: April 21, 2023) A new Monero cryptocurrency-mining campaign is the first recorded case of gaining persistence via Kubernetes (K8s) Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), according to Aquasec researchers. The recorded honeypot attack started with exploiting a misconfigured API server. The attackers preceded by gathering information about the cluster, checking if their cluster was already deployed, and deleting some existing deployments. They used RBAC to gain persistence by creating a new ClusterRole and a new ClusterRole binding. The attackers then created a DaemonSet to use a single API request to target all nodes for deployment. The deployed malicious image from the public registry Docker Hub was named to impersonate a legitimate account and a popular legitimate image. It has been pulled 14,399 times and 60 exposed K8s clusters have been found with signs of exploitation by this campaign. Analyst Comment: Your company should have protocols in place to ensure that all cluster management and cloud storage systems are properly configured and patched. K8s buckets are too often misconfigured and threat actors realize there is potential for malicious activity. A defense-in-depth (layering of security mechanisms, redundancy, fail-safe defense processes) approach is a good mitigation step to help prevent actors from highly-active threat groups.

It\'s not every day you hear about a purely social engineering-based scam taking place that is looking to run away with tens of millions of dollars. But, according to security researchers at Abnormal Security, cybercriminals are becoming brazen and are taking their shots at very large prizes. This attack begins with a case of VEC – where a domain is impersonated. In the case of this attack, the impersonated vendor\'s domain (which had a .com top level domain) was replaced with a matching .cam domain (.cam domains are supposedly used for photography enthusiasts, but there\'s the now-obvious problem with it looking very much like .com to the cursory glance). The email attaches a legitimate-looking payoff letter complete with loan details. According to Abnormal Security, nearly every aspect of the request looked legitimate. The telltale signs primarily revolved around the use of the lookalike domain, but there were other grammatical mistakes (that can easily be addressed by using an online grammar service or ChatGPT). This attack was identified well before it caused any damage, but the social engineering tactics leveraged were nearly enough to make this attack successful. Security solutions will help stop most attacks, but for those that make it past scanners, your users need to play a role in spotting and stopping BEC, VEC and phishing attacks themselves – something taught through security awareness training combined with frequent simulated phishing and other social engineering tests.

Trending Cyber News and Threat Intelligence What’s With The Shared VBA Code Between Transparent Tribe And Other Threat Actors? (published: February 9, 2022) A recent discovery has been made that links malicious VBA macro code between multiple groups, namely: Transparent Tribe, Donot Team, SideCopy, Operation Hangover, and SideWinder. These groups operate (or operated) out of South Asia and use a variety of techniques with phishing emails and maldocs to target government and military entities within India and Pakistan. The code is similar enough that it suggests cooperation between APT groups, despite having completely different goals/targets. Analyst Comment: This research shows that APT groups are sharing TTPs to assist each other, regardless of motive or target. Files that request content be enabled to properly view the document are often signs of a phishing attack. If such a file is sent to you via a known and trusted sender, that individual should be contacted to verify the authenticity of the attachment prior to opening. Thus, any such file attachment sent by unknown senders should be viewed with the utmost scrutiny, and the attachments should be avoided and properly reported to appropriate personnel.

The site, "windows-upgraded[.]com", is a direct copy of a legitimate Microsoft upgrade portal. Clicking the 'Upgrade Now' button downloads a 734MB ZIP file which contains an excess of dead code; more than likely this is to increase the filesize for bypassing any antivirus scan. RedLine is a well-known infostealer, capable of taking screenshots, using C2 communications, keylogging and more.

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.
