  • Tokenvator Release 3 Written by Alexander Polce Leary | July 22, 2021 Tokenvator Release 3 Is a Long Overdue Update That Includes a Major Overhaul to the Tool
    Tokenvator Release 3 written by Alexander Polce Leary | July 22, 2021 Tokenvator Release 3 is a long overdue update that includes a major overhaul to the tool. From the user interface, it will be mostly familiar with some command line tweaks. Under the surface, large portions of the code base have been reworked, and parts of the base have had some updates. In this series, we will go over some of the changes and new features added. Teaser Alert: Adding Privileges & Creating Tokens Improvements First and foremost, the user interface. Historically, every action had a series of positional arguments that were clunky and generally difficult to remember. They were also not very flexible, and as the commands started to have more, and additional optional arguments, they became completely unwieldy. These have been replaced with flags that will auto complete. For instance, to list and enable privileges: This also works in the non-interactive mode (though it won’t tab complete – sorry, it’s Windows): Additionally, the scroll back function was improved and numerous bugs were resolved. For instance, now when you press up you will always go to the last command issued. A printable command history has also been added if you want to copy and paste instead or keep a log of your actions. The info functionality was improved again, removing many bugs and adding additional information, such as impersonation contexts: (Tokens) > whoami [*] Operating as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM (Tokens) > info [*] Primary Token [+] User: S-1-5-21-258464558-1780981397-2849438727-1001

    Protecting Media Production Companies against Ransomware Rob Gonsalves Avid Technology, Inc. Burlington Massachusetts [email protected] Abstract - Ransomware, a type of malicious software designed to block access to digital assets until a sum of money is paid, represents a growing threat for media production companies, as digital media assets are a valued target for hackers. To protect their media assets and mitigate the risk of these types of attacks, companies can implement a set of security policies, procedures and systems. Deploying and operating Disaster Recovery (DR) systems with specific safeguards against ransomware will help companies retrieve valuable files without having to pay FIGURE 1 - INITIAL RANSOMWARE ATTACK cyber-criminals. This paper will discuss the growing threat of ransomware to media companies and cover the key The initial attack often comes when a user inadvertently concepts for understanding and building security and DR downloads and installs malware from a website. After systems with specific safeguards against ransomware. installation, the ransomware quietly searches for and Using these techniques, critical business functions can encrypts files. Its goal is to stay below the radar until it can continue in the event of an attack. find and encrypt all of the files that could be of value to the user. By the time the company is presented with the RANSOMWARE malware’s message with the ransom demand, the damage has already been done [2]. Ransomware is a form of malware that encrypts data files and holds these files for ransom. After the initial infection, the malware begins encrypting files on local drives, shared storage, and potentially other computers on the network.
