Le procès de seize personnes impliquées dans le siphonnage des données bancaires et personnelles de 76 000 intérimaires Adecco débute ce lundi à Lyon. Le préjudice estimé atteint 1,6 million d’euros.
En 2022, des intérimaires d’Adecco découvrent sur leur relevé bancaire un débit de 49,85 euros. Le nom affiché ne leur dit rien. Rapidement, l’affaire fait tache d'huile. Comme on vous l'avait raconté sur Clubic à cette époque, plusieurs milliers de personnes se rendent compte du problème en même temps. Les prélèvements se répètent, toujours pour le même montant. Les victimes échangent sur un groupe Facebook. Le point commun se confirme. Elles réalisent qu'elles ont toutes travaillé pour le leader du travail temporaire en France. Adecco lance un audit interne. Très vite, le lien se fait avec ses propres fichiers. Le géant suisse, pays pourtant considéré comme sanctuaire des données personnelles, comprend qu’un vaste piratage vient de toucher ses bases de données.
he Czech Republic on Wednesday accused China of being responsible for a "malicious cyber campaign" targeting a network used for unclassified communication at its Foreign Affairs ministry, but China rejected the accusations.
China's embassy in Prague called on the Czech side to end its "microphone diplomacy".
The attacks started during the country's 2022 EU presidency and were perpetrated by the cyber espionage group APT31, the Czech government said in a statement. The Czech Republic, an EU state and NATO member, said APT31 was publicly associated with the Chinese Ministry of State Security.
Foreign Minister Jan Lipavsky said that after the attack was detected, the ministry implemented a new communications system with enhanced security in 2024.
"I summoned the Chinese ambassador to make clear that such hostile actions have serious consequences for our bilateral relations," he said.
Lipavsky said the attacks centered on email and other documents and focused on information concerning Asia.
"The Government of the Czech Republic strongly condemns this malicious cyber campaign against its critical infrastructure," the government said in its statement.
China's embassy in the Czech Republic expressed "strong concern and decisive disagreement" with the Czech accusations.

Russian military intelligence, the G.R.U., is behind arson attacks aimed at undermining support for Ukraine’s war effort, security officials say.
According to ecrime.ch data, confirmed ransomware incidents occurred in 105 countries, originating from 58 ransomware groups. This number is relatively consistent with last year’s data, in which we calculated that incidents impacted organizations in 109 countries and documented at least 60 distinct ransomware families. Though the overall statistics remain relatively consistent from last year to this year, there is more to the story: new trends in the ecosystem include the shifting dynamics of ransomware groups, the rise of the education sector as a key target, and the trends in geographic distribution of attacks.
The Rust Security Response WG and the crates.io team were notified on 2022-05-02 of the existence of the malicious crate rustdecimal, which contained malware. The crate name was intentionally similar to the name of the popular rust_decimal crate, hoping that potential victims would misspell its name (an attack called "typosquattin
A newly uncovered technique to abuse Google’s ad-words powerful advertisement platform is spreading rogue promoted search results in mass. Pointing to allegedly credible advertisement sites that are fully controlled by threat actors, those are used to masquerade and redirect ad-clickers to malicious phishing pages gaining the powerful credibility and targeting capabilities of Google’s search results. Adding customized malware payloads, threat actors are raising the bar for successful malware deployments on Personal PCs with ad words like Grammarly, Malwarebytes, and Afterburner as well as with Visual Studio, Zoom, Slack, and even Dashlane to target organizations.

We recently discovered ransomware, which performs MSDTC service DLL Hijacking to silently execute its payload. We have named this ransomware CatB, based on the contact email that the ransomware group uses. The sample was first uploaded to VT on November 23, 2022 and tagged by the VT community as a possible variant of the Pandora Ransomware. The assumed connection to the Pandora Ransomware was due to some similarities between the CatB and Pandora ransom notes. However, the similarities pretty much end there. The CatB ransomware implements several anti-VM techniques to verify execution on a “real machine”, followed by a malicious DLL drop and DLL hijacking to evade detection.
