  • Cyber Espionage
    From January 2019 to April 2020 Cyber espionage ENISA Threat Landscape Overview Cyber espionage is considered both a threat and a motive in the cybersecurity playbook. It is defined as ‘the use of computer networks to gain illicit access to confidential information, typically that held by a government or other organisation’.1 In 2019, many reports revealed that global organisations consider cyber espionage (or nation-state-sponsored espionage) a growing threat affecting industrial sectors, as well as critical and strategic infrastructures across the world, including government ministries, railways, telecommunication providers, energy companies, hospitals and banks. Cyber espionage focuses on driving geopolitics, and on stealing state and trade secrets, intellectual property rights and proprietary information in strategic fields. It also mobilises actors from the economy, industry and foreign intelligence services, as well as actors who work on their behalf. In a recent report, threat intelligence analysts were not surprised to learn that 71% of organisations are treating cyber espionage and other threats as a ‘black box’ and are still learning about them. In 2019, the number of nation-state-sponsored cyberattacks targeting the economy increased and it is likely to continue this way. In detail, nation-state-sponsored and other adversary-driven attacks on the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are increasing in the utilities, oil and natural gas (ONG), and manufacturing sectors. Furthermore, cyberattacks conducted by advanced persistent threat (APT) groups indicate that financial attacks are often motivated by espionage. Using tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) akin to those of their espionage counterparts, groups such as the Cobalt Group, Carbanak and FIN7 have allegedly been targeting large financial institutions and restaurant chains successfully.

  • Report of the Attorney General's Cyber Digital Task Force
    U.S. Department of Justice REPORT OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S CYBER DIGITAL TASK FORCE U. S. Department of Justice Office of the Deputy Attorney General The Deputy Attorney General Washington, D.C. 20530 July 2, 2018 Dear Mr. Attorney General: You have emphasized that "upholding the Constitution and protecting the rule of law is the fo undation ofeverything we do" at the Department ofJustice. Our impo11ant duties include keeping America safe by fighting crime and preserving the Nation' s security. As President Trump has observed, "The United States faces an extraordinarily dangerous world, filled with a wide range ofthreats that have intensified in recent years." Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats explained earlier this year that the cyber threat "is one of[our] greatest concerns and top priorities." The Department ofJustice shares that assessment. Every day, malicious cyber actors target our citizens, our businesses, our military, and all levels ofour government. They cause billions ofdollars in losses and attempt to undermine our democratic values. Combating cybercrime and cyber-enabled threats to our Nation' s security must remain among the Department's highest priorities. In February 2018, you directed the formation ofa Cyber-Digital Task Force to undertake a comprehensive assessment ofthe Department' s work in the cyber area, and to identify how federal law enforcement can even more effectively accomplish its mission in this vital and evolving area. The initial assessment is complete. It is my privilege to present this report ofthe Attorney General's Cyber-Digital Task Force. I hope this report will assist as all Americans keep moving forward to protect our people, promote our economy, and preserve our values.

  • Feature Extraction and Static Analysis for Large-Scale Detection of Malware Types and Families
    Feature Extraction and Static Analysis for Large-Scale Detection of Malware Types and Families Lars Strande Grini Master’s Thesis Master of Science in Information Security 30 ECTS Department of Computer Science and Media Technology Gjøvik University College, 2015 Avdeling for informatikk og medieteknikk Høgskolen i Gjøvik Postboks 191 2802 Gjøvik Department of Computer Science and Media Technology Gjøvik University College Box 191 N-2802 Gjøvik Norway Feature Extraction and Static Analysis for Large-Scale Detection of Malware Types and Families Lars Strande Grini 15/12/2015 Feature Extraction and Static Analysis for Large-Scale Detection of Malware Types and Families Abstract There exist different methods of identifying malware, and widespread method is the one found in almost every antivirus solution on the market today; the signature based ap- proach. This approach uses a one-way cryptographic function to generate a unique hash of each file. Afterwards, each hash is checked against a database of hashes of known mal- ware. This method provides close to none false positives, but this does also mean that this approach can only detect previously known malware, and will in many cases also provide a number of false negatives. Malware authors exploit this weakness in the way that they change a small part of the malicious code, and thereby changes the entire hash of the file, which then leaves the malicious code undetectable until the sample is discovered, analyzed and updated in the vendors database(s). In the light of this relatively easy mit- igation for malware authors, it is clear that we need other ways to identify malware.

  • Cyber Threats to Our Nation's Critical Infrastructure
    STATEMENT OF SUJIT RAMAN ASSOCIATE DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE BEFORE THE SUBCOMMITTEE ON CRIME AND TERRORISM COMMITTEE ON THE JUDICIARY UNITED STATES SENATE AT A HEARING ENTITLED “CYBER THREATS TO OUR NATION’S CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE” PRESENTED AUGUST 21, 2018 STATEMENT OF SUJIT RAMAN ASSOCIATE DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE BEFORE THE SUBCOMMITTEE ON CRIME AND TERRORISM COMMITTEE ON THE JUDICIARY UNITED STATES SENATE AT A HEARING ENTITLED “CYBER THREATS TO OUR NATION’S CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE” PRESENTED AUGUST 21, 2018 Good afternoon Chairman Graham, Ranking Member Whitehouse, and distinguished Members of the Subcommittee. Thank you for the opportunity to testify on behalf of the Department of Justice regarding our efforts to combat cyber threats. The Attorney General identified this issue as a priority when he created a Cyber-Digital Task Force within the Department earlier this year. I have the privilege of chairing this Task Force, and as you know, last month the Task Force issued a public report that provides a comprehensive assessment of the cyber-enabled threats confronting our Nation. The Department appreciates the Subcommittee’s interest in making sure that the Department has the tools it needs to disrupt and deter cyber actors who seek to do our Nation harm. As I describe below, the Department’s principal role in responding to cyber threats is the investigation and prosecution of federal crimes, but our investigations can yield more than criminal charges. The Department is committed to using all of the tools at our disposal, including civil injunctions, information sharing, and technical operations, to counter malicious cyber activity, as well as to support our federal partners’ tools, like economic sanctions, diplomatic pressure, intelligence operations, and military action.

Cyber Actors wait till late on Friday afternoons to launch major crypto worm attacks. On Friday the 8th of June 2018, Alpha & Omega Wellness Center, was a victim of “Electronic Vandalism”. The new improved variant of the “WannaCry” crypto worm named “WorldCry” exploited a vulnerable Windows 2008 R2 server which was not patched with MS17-010. The [email protected] crypto worm, executed on the 9th of June 2018 at 8:56 am rendering information processing systems unusable, causing a major business interruption. Entry point is believed to be via port zero, MikroTik VoIP router, which was not patched for the “SLINGSHOT” vulnerability, utilizing BUSYBOX and Apple Script to laterally traverse the network to the file server. The 2008 R2 server was not patched to protect against the “EternalBlue” attack tool, all files were encrypted. Previous IT support contractor attempted to “Decrypt” file structure to no avail. The “Mirrored HDD” was reformatted and counterfeit Windows Server 2008 R2 installed, because he did not have the original media, in another failed attempt to “Decrypt” and “Repair” with unsupported software. After 48 days of no progress or success in restoring systems to an operational capability, Karen Ruja then called Monica Velasquez of AR Billing Company, Wednesday July 25th, and asked for help.

Disruption operations seek to affect the adversary’s decision-making processes and impose additional costs. Such operations include a wide range of actions, from releasing indicators of compromise and naming-and-shaming, to botnet and infrastructure takedowns, to indictments and sanctions, and may be conducted outside of the defender’s own network with the intent to interrupt adversary cyber offense and espionage. The United States Department of Defense recently released a new strategy that calls for “persistent engagement” with malicious cyber actors, suggesting many more disruption operations to come.
