By investigating the event in question and pursuing root cause analysis (RCA), Huntress was able to link this intrusion to a recently-announced vulnerability as well as to a long-running post-exploitation framework linked to prominent ransomware groups.

Le tribunal juge qu’en stockant les 3 réplications de sauvegarde au même endroit que le serveur principal, OVH engage sa responsabilité contractuelle au titre du contrat de sauvegarde. Une ligne est en train de se dessiner dans la jurisprudence OVH : d’un côté les sociétés qui avaient pris soin de souscrire, en supplément, un contrat de sauvegarde et peuvent revendiquer une indemnisation, et d’un autre côté celles qui n’avaient pas pris cette précaution et n’ont que leurs yeux pour pleurer.
A recent study shows that top-of-the-line Android phones sold in China are a total privacy nightmare.
The “news broadcasters” appear stunningly real, but they are AI-generated deepfakes in first-of-their-kind propaganda videos that a research report published Tuesday attributed to Chinese state-aligned actors. The fake anchors — for a fictious news outlet called Wolf News — were created by artificial intelligence software and appeared in footage on social media that seemed to […]
The United Kingdom and United States on Thursday sanctioned seven people connected to what officials have told The Record is a single network behind the Conti and Ryuk ransomware gangs as well as the Trickbot banking trojan.
The sanctions are described as the first major move of a “new campaign of concerted action” between Britain and the United States, and insiders say that further actions should be expected later this year.
The UK has sanctioned 7 Russian cyber criminals through coordinated actions with the US government.
Today, everything is “smart” or “intelligent”. We have smartphones, smart cars, smart doorbells, etc. Being "smart" means performing actions depending on the context, the environment, or user actions.
For a while, backdoors and trojans have implemented screenshot capabilities. From an attacker’s point of view, it’s interesting to “see” what’s displayed on the victim’s computer.
Last October, Trustwave SpiderLabs blogged about the use and prevalence of HTML email attachments to deliver malware and phishing for credentials.
We discovered an active campaign targeting Eastern Europeans in the cryptocurrency industry using fake job lures.
Every year, we publish our estimates of illicit cryptocurrency activity to demonstrate the power of blockchains’ transparency – these kinds of estimates aren’t possible in traditional finance – and to teach investigators and compliance professionals about the latest trends in cryptocurrency-related crime that they need to know about. What could those estimates look like in a year like 2022? Last year was one of the most tumultuous in cryptocurrency history, with several large firms imploding, including Celsius, Three Arrows Capital, FTX, and others — some amid allegations of fraud.
Bitwarden and other password managers are being targeted in Google ads phishing campaigns to steal users' password vault credentials.

Ransomware gang says it will share the stolen information in a matter of days
Sliver is an open-source penetration testing tool developed in the Go programming language. Cobalt Strike and Metasploit are major examples of penetration testing tools used by many threat actors, and various attack cases involving these tools have been covered here on the ASEC blog. Recently, there have been cases of threat actors using Sliver in addition to Cobalt Strike and Metasploit.
The ASEC (AhnLab Security Emergency response Center) analysis team is monitoring attacks against systems with either unpatched vulnerabilities or misconfigured settings. During this process, we have recently discovered a Sliver backdoor being installed through what is presumed to be vulnerability exploitation on certain software. Not only did threat actors use the Sliver backdoor, but they also used the BYOVD (Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver) malware to incapacitate security products and install reverse shells.
Today, Microsoft’s Digital Threat Analysis Center (DTAC) is attributing a recent influence operation targeting the satirical French magazine Charlie Hebdo
