    Ransom where? Holding data hostage with ransomware May 2019 Author With the evolution of digitization and increased interconnectivity, the cyberthreat landscape has transformed from merely a security and privacy concern to a danger much more insidious by nature — ransomware. Ransomware is a type of malware that is designed to encrypt, Imani Barnes Analyst 646.572.3930 destroy or shut down networks in exchange [email protected] for a paid ransom. Through the deployment of ransomware, cybercriminals are no longer just seeking to steal credit card information and other sensitive personally identifiable information (PII). Instead, they have upped their games to manipulate organizations into paying large sums of money in exchange for the safe release of their data and control of their systems. While there are some business sectors in which the presence of this cyberexposure is overt, cybercriminals are broadening their scopes of potential victims to include targets of opportunity1 across a multitude of industries. This paper will provide insight into how ransomware evolved as a cyberextortion instrument, identify notorious strains and explain how companies can protect themselves. 1 WIRED. “Meet LockerGoga, the Ransomware Crippling Industrial Firms” March 25, 2019; https://www.wired.com/story/lockergoga-ransomware-crippling-industrial-firms/. 2 Ransom where? | May 2019 A brief history of ransomware The first signs of ransomware appeared in 1989 in the healthcare industry. An attacker used infected floppy disks to encrypt computer files, claiming that the user was in “breach of a licensing agreement,”2 and demanded $189 for a decryption key. While the attempt to extort was unsuccessful, this attack became commonly known as PC Cyborg and set the archetype in motion for future attacks.

  • Global Security Report End Year 2020 Executive Summary
    Global Security Report End Year 2020 Executive Summary The Zix | AppRiver Global Security Report for 2020 highlights the threats and trends Zix | AppRiver Security analysts saw throughout the year. In 2020, analysts saw attackers shift their tactics to take advantage of the unprecedented situation the world faced due to the Covid-19 pandemic. These attacks: • Aimed to take advantage of uncertainty surrounding the pandemic and the shift to “work from home” throughout much of the year. • Leveraged other world events, like the contentious US election, to distribute their attacks. • Multiplied "living off the land” attacks across many new and otherwise legitimate services. • Continued shift from high volume email blasts to a much more focused and customized attack style. • Posed impersonation attacks as internal executive communications and were persistent throughout 2020. In this report, we will take a deep dive into many of the threats and trends we saw in email security as well as discuss examples of prevalent attacks and explore potential impacts. Introduction Threat actors have always leveraged both local and world events to help spread their attacks. Never more so than in 2020. Early in the year, as the global pandemic came to fruition, attackers began launching spam, phishing and malware attacks utilizing interest in the pandemic. It wasn’t long before they had begun crafting attacks centered around the surge in remote work. Later in the year they took advantage of the contentious US Election cycle to distribute attacks. In 2020, Attackers continued to embrace the use of more targeted attacks versus the large volume email blasts we have seen in the past.

New attack vectors were created; including VPN usage, home network security issues, personal device usage for business purposes and auditability of network traffic. In Q3 2020, we’ve observed threat actors become even more ruthless. Shifting focus from home networks to overburdened public entities including the education sector and the Election Assistance Commission (EAC). Many school districts were forced into 100% virtual or hybrid learning models by the pandemic. Attackers have waged ransomware attacks at learning institutions who not only have the financial resources to pay ransoms but feel a sense of urgency to do so in order to avoid disruptions during the school year. Meanwhile, the U.S. Elections have provided lures for phishers to attack. Nuspire witnessed Q3 attempts to guide victims to fake voter registration pages to harvest information while spoofing the Election Assistance Commission (EAC). Like these examples, cybercriminals taking advantage of prominent media themes are expected. We anticipate our Q4 2020 Threat Report 4 | Introduction Nuspire Threat Report | Q3 | 2020 to find campaigns leveraging more of the United report each quarter is a great step to gain that States Presidential election as well.

  • Q3 Malware Trends: Ransomware Extorts Education, Emotet and Crypto Mining Malware Evolve, and Android Malware Persists Cyber Threat Analysis
    CYBER THREAT ® ANALYSIS By Insikt Group CTA-2020-1105 Q3 MALWARE TRENDS: RANSOMWARE EXTORTS EDUCATION, EMOTET AND CRYPTO MINING MALWARE EVOLVE, AND ANDROID MALWARE PERSISTS CYBER THREAT ANALYSIS Key Judgments • More threat actors will very likely adopt the ransomware extortion model as long as it remains profitable. • Educational institutions continue to be a prime target for ransomware operators. We believe that disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have made the networks of universities and school districts attractive targets because these organizations feel increased pressure to stay operational with minimal disruptions and are therefore more likely to pay ransoms quickly. • Reports of NetWalker attacks increased, and reports of Sodinokibi attacks decreased. However, it is possible that victims of Sodinokibi attacks are simply paying the ransom more often. Based on activity on underground forums, we suspect that the operators of Sodinokibi are continuing to expand their operations. • While we expect Emotet’s operators to continue to employ major pauses, it is highly likely that Emotet will continue to be This report is an extension of analysis Recorded Future released, which outlined a major threat and impact organizations across a variety of the trends in malware use, distribution, and development throughout Q1 and Q2 industries throughout the end of the year and into 2021. 2020.
