Input: Search Free Trial Get Demo Phishing by the Numbers  Oct 2021 November 24, 2021 The Industry Edition This blog is part of our monthly blog series analyzing incident response data from Cyren threat researchers and Cyren security clouds including Cyren Inbox Security. This month, the research team analyzed the data by industry to confirm our suspicion that certain types of companies are targeted more than others. Some of the findings were quite surprising, however, it is important to note that this data represents incidents that Cyren detected and remediated . The data might paint a different picture if we analyzed organizations that were compromised  an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Threats by type The ratio of phishing, business email compromise BEC and malware incidents varied by industry, but phishing remained the dominant threat. The continued prevalence of phishing supports the widely held theory that phishing is a precursor to more damaging attacks such as BEC and ransomware. Stop phishing and organizations dramatically reduce the risks of BEC and targeted ransomware. The low rate of malware threats across customers in the healthcare industry is a direct result of the additional investments these organizations have made in malware detection in response to industry-wide ransomware risks and regulatory requirements . Robust malware detection capabilities in the healthcare industry explains the high rate of BEC attempts. Attackers understand that they cant easily slip malware past automated defenses, so they have shifted to social engineering tactics . Financeinsurance and manufacturing have a distinct mix of threats, which they have successfully defended against. Financial services firms are heavily regulated and have no choice but to continually invest in and improve their security posture. Manufacturing firms on the other hand, are not subject to strict cybersecurity compliance mandates and will understandably invest in production capacity before they enhance anything else. The research team has previously observed the real estate industry is in the sights of targeted attacks . The above average rate of phishing suggests that cybercriminals use compromised credentials over other tactics, so they can inject themselves into financial transactions with email account compromise attacks. Threat velocity The ratio of threat types illustrates that different industries are targeted with a varying mix of tactics, differences among their business and motivations of cybercriminals. But what about the intensity of these threats? We can see that healthcare may face proportionally more BEC attacks, but which industries are attacked more often? Phishing and BEC are forms of social engineering so its fair to think of employees mailboxes as the attack surface . The figures above show how the rate of malicious email incidents as a function of users  basically, how risk scales as the attack surface expands. We normalized the data to per 100 users to project the organizations size. Education is an outlier since the users include both staff and students. There was a surprising low rate for manufacturing, especially when compared to the construction industry which is closely related. We observed 20 confirmed threats per 100 users in the manufacturing vertical. Without solid detection and automated incident response, a manufacturer with 100 Office 365 users would spend at least 16 hours manually investigating and remediating emails. Consider the new paradigm of asking IT to do more with less and the opportunity cost of losing two business days defending against email attacks. As part of the research, the team set out to understand how risks increase as a function of email traffic. If some percentage of all emails are malicious then the more emails an organization receives, the more incidents they have to detect and contain. Oil  gas, finance  insurance, and entertainment maintain their low ranks, but healthcare and hospitality move to the upper half. Solving the problem Phishing, BEC, etc. are complex problems that dont require a complex solution. User education is an important component, but several organizations have over-rotated on the idea that users are responsible for keeping sophisticated email threats at bay. The predominant trend is to use an email hygiene technology such as Microsoft Defender for Office 365 to catch 80 of threats, deploy a specialized add-on to catch and contain zero-day phishing and most BEC attempts, enable employees to perform initial analysis on the small percentage of emails that are classified as suspicious rather than malicious or clean, and automate incident response workflows to save time and reduce exposure. Attack of note As illustrated in the bar charts above, the professional services industry dealt with a high rate of attacks as measured by users or traffic volume. Professional services are an attractive target for attackers due to the number of third-parties clients, vendors, etc. that they work with on a daily basis. Following are details from a targeted phishing attack launched against a Cyren customer in the professional services industry. The attack lasted five days and was sent to senior executives within this 4,000 employee firm, a tactic known in the phishing world as a whaling attack. A whaling attack is a targeted attack focused on key executives in the company that have access to sensitive data or high levels of authority over actions such as a wire transfer. The emails were sent using spoofed accounts that looked like internal addresses. The email subjects varied but each was constructed to appear as a notice from Office 365 about quarantined email messages. The call to action was to review and release the quarantined messages, which led users to a fake Outlook login page. The attack focused on senior executives at the company including the CEO and General Counsel. Conclusion Email-delivered threats by any name phishing, BEC, EAC, ransomware are a top concern for any organization, regardless of industry. Just as the type and velocity of email threats varies across companies, so do the ability to defend against them and the impact if an attack slips through undetected. Heavily regulated industries like financial services have incentives to invest in robust cybersecurity measures, while other industries may under-invest. Regardless, every organization must have in place a mature meaning automated and continually improved process to detect and remediate targeted phishing attacks, BEC, etc. Preventing a successful phishing attack is one thing, preventing it efficiently is another matter.

Input: Search Free Trial Get Demo Emotet Von einem Bank-Trojaner zu einem der fortgeschrittensten Botnets March 11, 2019 2014 begann die Emotet-Malware als Bank-Trojaner, der europäische Bankkunden ins Visier nahm. Damals erwartete niemand, dass sich diese Malware zu einem der gefährlichsten Botnets weltweit entwickeln würde. Uns haben viele Fragen zur Emotet-Malware und dem gleichnamigen Botnet erreicht. Seine Vielseitigkeit hat dazu geführt, dass es weit verbreitet ist eine Analyse einer Variante, die letzte Weihnachten Amazon-Einkäufer ins Visier nahm, finden Sie in einem früheren Blog-Beitrag hier. Es weist einige ungewöhnliche Merkmale auf, an erster Stelle die einfache Tatsache, dass sowohl Malware als auch Botnet den gleichen Namen verwenden. Wir haben daher beschlossen, eine kurze Einführung zusammenzustellen, in der die Geschichte seiner Entwicklung besprochen wird, und die Mechanik seiner Funktionsweise zu erörtern. Was ist Emotet? Emotet wird von der Cybergruppe Mealybug verbreitet und wurde von Sicherheitsforschern erstmals 2014 entdeckt. Ursprünglich wurde die Malware als Bank-Trojaner entworfen, der v. a. auf deutsche und österreichische Bankkunden abzielte, um ihre Anmeldedaten zu stehlen. Im Laufe der Zeit hat es sich jedoch weiterentwickelt und als extrem vielseitig und effektiv erwiesen. Neue Funktionen sind hinzugekommen, um E-Mails, Finanzdaten, Browsing-Verlauf, gespeicherte Passwörter und Bitcoin-Geldbörsen zu sammeln. Die Malware kann das infizierte Gerät jetzt auch zu einem Botnet hinzufügen, um DDoS-Angriffe auszuführen oder Spam-E-Mails zu versenden. Wenn ein Computer oder ein anderes Gerät infiziert wurde, versucht Emotet, die zugeordneten Systeme mittels Brute-Force-Angriffen zu infiltrieren. Mit einer Liste gebräuchlicher Passwörter bewaffnet rät der Trojaner sich vom Gerät des Opfers zu anderen verbundenen Geräten durch. Ein infiziertes Gerät kontaktiert die Command-and-ControlCC-Server Befehls- und Steuerzentrale des Botnets, um Updates erhalten zu können und die CC als Abstellplatz für die gestohlenen Daten zu nutzen. Der Umfang, in dem das Emotet-Botnet tätig sein kann, ist nicht zu unterschätzen. Forschungsergebnisse zeigen, dass ein einziger Emotet-Bot in nur einer Stunde Hunderttausende von E-Mails senden kann. Das deutet darauf hin, dass er theoretisch pro Tag einige Millionen abschicken kann. Von einigen unserer Analysen ableitend und mit etwas Spekulation gilt Umfasst das Emotet-Botnet einige Hunderttausende Bots sagen wir um des Arguments willen 400.000 und jeder Bot kann täglich 3 Millionen E-Mails senden, bedeutet das eine Kapazität von mehr als einer Billion E-Mails pro Tag. Es handelt sich zwar um reine Spekulation, weil wir die wahre Größe des Botnets und auch die Verhaltensvariabilität zwischen verschiedenen Bots nicht kennen, fest steht aber, dass es sich um ein äußerst starkes und produktives Botnet handelt. Jüngste Entwicklungen Emotet entwickelt sich ständig weiter. 2018 fügte Mealybug die Fähigkeit zur Lieferung und Installation anderer Malware wie z. B. Ransomware hinzu. Eine der jüngsten Funktionen von Emotet Bei einer Infektion prüft die Malware, ob ihre neuen Opfer auf IP-Sperrlisten stehen, was darauf hindeutet, dass die IP-Adresse als möglicher Übeltäter bekannt ist. Dies würde z. B. für IP-Adressen gelten, die bereits bösartige E-Mails verbreitet haben, Port-Scanning durchgeführt oder an einer DDoS-Attacke teilgenommen haben. Mit den neuen Ergänzungen und der zunehmenden Komplexität hat sich auch die geografische Reichweite des Trojaners auf Europa, Asien, Nord- und Mittelamerika ausgeweitet. Wie infiziert Emotet Geräte und verbreitet sich weiter? Emotet setzt drei Vektoren ein, um Opfer zu erreichen. Der erste ist von Emotet-infizierten Geräten gesendete Malspam-Mail. Die Malware kann auch Netzwerke durchforsten Crawling und sich mittels Brute-Force-Angriffen verbreiten. Darüber hinaus hat Emotet wurmähnliche Eigenschaften und nutzt die EternalBlue-Anfälligkeit, die bekannt wurde, als WannaCry sie zur Infizierung von Opfern nutzte. Die bösartigen E-Mails von Emotet sehen oft so aus, als stammten sie von bekannten, vertrauten Marken wie Amazon oder DHL mit gebräuchlichen Betreffzeilen z. B. Ihre Rechnung oder Zahlungsdetails. In frühen Versionen wurde das angegriffene Geräte dadurch infiziert, dass der Benutzer auf einen bösartigen Link klickte, der im E-Mail-Text enthalten war. Dieser Link leitete das Opfer mehrmals weiter und sorgte letztendlich für den Download der Emotet-Malware. Seit November 2018 erfolgt die Infektion per Word- oder PDF-Datei im E-Mail-Anhang. Beim Öffnen des Word-Dokuments wird der Benutzer aufgefordert, Makros zu aktivieren. Tut er das, führt das Dokument ein PowerShell-Skript aus, das den Trojaner herunterlädt und ausführt. Die PDF-Datei hingegen enthält einen bösartigen Link. Durch einfachen Klick darauf wird Emotet heruntergeladen und ausgeführt. Nach der Infektion wird das anvisierte System Teil des Botnets von Emotet. Systeme im gleichen Netzwerk sind dann einer Infektionsgefahr ausgesetzt, weil die Malware Crawling-Fähigkeiten hat. Darüber hinaus kann das Botnet das Spamming-Modul der Malware aktivieren, wodurch das anvisierte System bösartige E-Mails aussendet, die weitere Geräte infizieren und das Botnet vergrößern. Die E-Mails werden aus den E-Mail-Konten des Opfers an Freunde, Familie, Kunden und andere Kontakte gesendet. Benutzer öffnen E-Mail viel eher von Personen, die sie kennen. Daher wird die Wahrscheinlichkeit des Öffnens der E-Mails und der Botnet-Expansion dadurch erhöht. Emotet sucht nicht nach einem bestimmten Ziel. Personen, Unternehmen und staatliche Einrichtungen sind alle dem Risiko ausgesetzt, von einem der fortgeschrittensten Botnets übernommen zu werden, das je geschaffen wurde. Emotet wirkt sich auf verschiedene Versionen des Windows-Betriebssystems aus und infiziert sie durch Ausführung eines PowerShell-Skripts. Außerdem nutzt die Malware die EternalBlueDoublePulsar-Anfälligkeiten. Zudem kann der Trojaner von einem infiltrierten Microsoft Outlook-Konto gesandte und empfangene E-Mails erfassen. Mehrere Methoden zur Detektionsumgehung Emotet ist eine polymorph entworfene Malware. Das bedeutet, dass sie sich selbst bei jedem Download ändern kann, um signaturbasierte Detektion zu umgehen. Darüber hinaus erfasst sie, ob sie auf einer virtuellen Maschine ausgeführt wird, und bleibt inaktiv, wenn eine Sandbox-Umgebung festgestellt wird. Eine der offensichtlichsten Umgehungstaktiken von Emotet ist wahrscheinlich die Variabilität des Inhalts der Spam-E-Mails. Obgleich meist E-Mails gesendet werden, die von bekannten Marken zu stammen scheinen, variiert der Inhalt zu sehr, um definitiv als Emotet-E-Mail identifiziert werden zu können. Außerdem kann der Trojaner die Betreffzeile der E-Mail ändern, um Spamfilter zu umgehen, und prüfen, ob sich die IP-Adresse eines Opfers oder Empfängers auf einer schwarzen oder Spamliste befindet. Reichte die Sicherheit nicht aus und wurde ein System bereits beeinträchtigt, ist eine Methode zur Bestätigung der Malware-Präsenz das Prüfen der Mailbox-Regeln der möglicherweise infizierten E-Mail-Adresse. Ist eine Regel zur automatischen Weiterleitung aller E-Mails an eine externe Adresse vorhanden, hat der Trojaner das Gerät höchstwahrscheinlich infiltriert. Allgemein kann es für einen IT-Administrator oder Sicherheitsanalysten schwierig sein, einen direkten Beleg für Emotet manuell zu finden, weil die Malware z. B. den alternativen Datenstrom löscht. Um sich hinsichtlich einer Infektion sicher zu sehen, wird am besten ein automatisierter Systemscan durchgeführt. Der Ablauf einer erfolgreichen Infektion folgt in der Regel dem nachstehend illustrierten Beispiel. 1 An Empfänger gesendete Beispiel-Emotet-E-Mail Beispiel-Anhang, den der Empfänger öffnen soll Wenn der Benutzer der Aufforderung, Makros zuzulassen, nachkommt, wird im Hintergrund ein Prozess eingeleitet, der für das Opfer natürlich nicht sichtbar ist. Ein Makro startet cmd.exe und führt ein PowerShell-Skript aus, das so aussieht Dieses Skript versucht, fünf verschiedene Download-Quellen zu kontaktieren. Wenn es eine Programmdatei in einen temporären Ordner herunterladen kann, nennt es sie 726.exe und die Datei wird ausgeführt. Die Programmdatei wird dann in einen anderen Ordner verschoben und unter einem anderen Prozessnamen ausgeführt. Dieser Prozess kann einen CC-Server hier in Argentinien kontaktieren und das Gerät ist jetzt ein Teil des Emotet-Botnets.

Input: Search Free Trial Get Demo Phishing Targets Phantom Wallet December 13, 2021 Phantom is a browser based crypto wallet where you can store, send, receive, stake and exchange tokens in the Solana blockchain. With the skyrocketing prices of crypto currencies including SOL , a crypto wallet is one of the things we can use in order to get into the crypto currency action. Just recently there were several reports of wallets being wiped clean. An incident was reported by a user on twitter on how it happened. With just a copypasted message sent by a friend to a messenger group chat which includes a phishing link, he clicked it without verifying and it all went wrong from there. And now, they are trying to run pay per click campaigns to target more unsuspecting users. We previously reported fraudsters using online advertising in a phishing campaign that targeted Axie Infinity users through a fake Ronin wallet page. Malicious ads are not uncommon and large ad platforms like Google have processes to identify and remove fraudulent content. However, we were able to spot a fraudulent ad before it was quickly spotted and removed by Google. In this campaign, criminals trick users into creating a crypto wallet on a phishing site so the bad actors have access to the wallet. Once the victim transfers crypto into the wallet, the criminals steal the funds. Here is a step by step of the attack. Victims are lured to the phishing page with a fraudulent online ad. 2. The ad linked to a phishing page designed to mimic the real Phantom site. 3. The victims navigate the same user experience as they would when interacting with the real Phantom site. Below the user receives their Secret Recovery Phrase after choosing the Create New Wallet option 4. Then the user enters and confirms their wallet password. Note the user is still interacting with the phishing site. 5. Next the user receives instructions to open the malicious browser extension. 6. The criminals now have all the information from the victim they need to empty the crypto wallet. 7. And of course, to make the victim feel this process was legitimate, the Finish button redirected them to the actual Phantom site. Although the ads were immediately taken down, there were already several transactions done in the wallet that was created in the phishing page. This is mostly likely because the phishing page was used prior to it being published via the short-lived advertisement. Following the crypto currency transaction associated with the exposed wallet, some SOL ended up in this wallet which contains over 870,00 SOL.  It is the same wallet that was used when the Nobu Ninjas NFT minting website was hijacked via DNS cache poisoning. Details of how the hacking transpired are on Nobu Ninjas Twitter page . Best Practices and Recommendations As of this writing, the phishing page has been suspended. Users are advised to verify every link before clickingopening the site. Also, browser based crypto wallets need to be installed first as an extension in the browser, not after creating the wallet. In this scenario, the option to create a wallet comes first so it should trigger a red flag that it most probably a phishing page.

Essentially, a scammer will investigate its victims digital footprint to find vulnerabilities, send an enticing email with links or attachments, launch an attack, then steal and disappear. Below, well go into further detail on a socially engineered scenario 1. Investigation Scammers will start out by stalking their victim so they can find angles to leverage. For example, if an individual were to make an online post about raising money for a charity fund, a scammer can understand you are emotionally attached to a particular cause. 2. Baiting By now, the scammer will know most of your digital footprint, and will also likely be able to determine your email address. This allows scammers to send you personalized emails with a relevant theme, in this case, a charity fund. 4. Attack Next, you receive an email with an emotionally driven subject line, you immediately open the email and it contains a donation link. As soon as the link is clicked, malware has infected your computer and the malicious attack begins. 5. Retreat Unfortunately, these scammers can vanish into thin air without you knowing. The average data breach takes 287 days to detect and this is with a professional cybersecurity team. A regular person will not have these types of resources. Its also important to understand to never check personal emails on a companys network because this can lead to an organization being compromised. Now that you understand what social engineering is and how it works, lets take a look at the various types of social engineering attacks. Understand what it takes to detect and respond to targeted phishing attacks on Office 365 in real-time. Read the Playbook 13 Types of Social Engineering Attacks Criminals like to utilize different types of social engineering tactics to gain trust because exploiting trust is an easier way to gain access to your software than discovering a zero-day remote phishing exploits . Below, well discuss the many forms of socially engineered attacks and the techniques that are most commonly used by cybercriminals. 1. Angler Phishing Angler phishing is a newer kind of phishing attack which targets social media users via spoofed customer service accounts. They then reach out to disgruntled customers. The fake account will give the user a chance to talk to a live representative who will obtain their personal information or account credentials in the process . They may try to get them to use a link that will automatically install malicious malware onto their computer. 2. Spear phishing Spear phishing is when cybercriminals target email or electronic communications to scam a specific individual, organization, enterprise, or business. While cybercriminals usually try to install malware onto a users computer to gather credentials, they often use spear phishing to gain trust and get users to send the credentials themselves. 3. Whaling Another common social engineering attack targets top-level enterprise executives and even the heads of government agencies. Their aim is to steal money or sensitive information from senior employees who likely have broad access to information and authority over payments. Similar to other attacks, they may try to gain access to their computer systems to steal this information. Also known as CEO fraud, whaling uses similar methods to phishing, such as email and website spoofing. Ransoms are commonly used in whaling attacks since cybercriminals may have embarrassing information they can leak to the public. 4. Diversion Theft Diversion theft can occur online and offline but by definition, its the interception of transactions. In online diversion theft schemes, thieves trick victims into sending sensitive data to the wrong person. The thieves often accomplish this theft by spoofing an email address of someone within the victims company. They may also spoof an auditing firm or a financial institution in order to accomplish this. 5. Baiting Baiting is a kind of social engineering attack where victims are lured into providing sensitive information or credentials. They do this by falsely promising something of value for free. The trap may also be in the form of a malicious attachment that has an enticing name. This is a highly effective technique since cybercriminals try to capitalize on your emotions so you act irrationally. 6. Pretexting Pretexting is a more sophisticated style of social engineering attack when a scammer creates a fabricated scenario also known as a pretext in order to con a user into providing their passwords, financial information, or social security information. They may pretend to be an IRS auditor. 7. SMS Phishing SMS phishing has become a larger and larger problem since more enterprises have embraced texting as a method of communication. In one SMS phishing method, scammers will send a text message which spoofs a multi-factor authentication request. This may then redirect victims to a malicious web page that collects their credentials or installs malware on their mobile devices. 8. Scareware Scareware is when a scammer inserts a malicious code onto a webpage  causing a pop-up window that has flashing colors and alarming sounds. These pop-ups will then falsely alert you that a virus has been installed onto your device. Once this happens, you will then be told to purchasedownload their security software or call an alleged computer technician to help restore your system. At this time, scammers will either steal your credit card information or install actual viruses onto your system. They may also do both. 9. Watering Hole Attack In this kind of attack, the hacker will infect a legitimate website that their targets actively visit. Then, once their victims log into the site, the hacker can capture their credentials  using them to breach the targets own network. They may also install a backdoor trojan, which can access the network. 10. Vishing Attack Vishing, which is short for voice phishing, occurs when a cybercriminal tries to trick victims into disclosing their information or even giving them direct access to the victims computer via telephone. One popular vishing scam involves attackers calling victims and pretending they are from the IRS. The caller then threatens or attempts to scare the victim into giving up their personal data or a compensation. Vishing scams often target older individuals, however, anyone can fall for vishing scams if they are not well-trained. 11. Business Email Compromise Business email compromise BEC is a type of cybercrime scheme where an attacker targets businesses to defraud the company. BEC is a growing problem that targets all kinds of organizations across all industries in the world. A subset of BEC is email account compromise EAC which is a BEC attack launched using an actual account within the organization rather than a spoofed address. The compromised account used in an EAC attack is often the result of a previous, successful phishing incident. 12. Honeytraps Honeytraps are a type of scam where cybercriminals create fake social media accounts and dating profiles by using photos they steal online. Once they find their prime victim, theyll start to build a relationship by sending messages or photos. Once the cybercriminal builds trust with their victim, they entice them to send gifts, money or cosign for large purchases to prove that the victims love for them is real. 13. Piggybacking or Tailgating Piggybacking, sometimes referred to as tailgating, is a type of physical breach that occurs when an unauthorized person compromises an authorized person. Scammers may hang out around entrances that require pin codes and disguise themselves as delivery drivers or groundskeepers so they can steal passwords without you knowing. In another scenario, authorized individuals may give access to an unauthorized individual like a coworker, or let a child play on a company-issued device. If both individuals fall victim to a socially engineered attack, it can compromise an entire organization. How to Prevent a Social Engineering Attack Since social engineering attacks are an ever-growing problem, you will need to know some mitigation tactics in order to avoid these kinds of attacks. Below, we explain some of the more popular mitigation tactics that can be used by your organization to stop phishing attacks . Have a Positive Security Culture If you or any of your staff fall victim to social engineering attacks, your security team will have to act quickly in order to contain it. The corporate culture must therefore encourage these victims to report any incidents as soon as possible. You want to ensure no malware infection dwells on your system for months. While being able to quickly respond to incidents is important, predicting and preventing attacks is far better. Test Training Effectiveness Training your staff to look out for social engineering attacks should not just be a one-off event. You need to regularly test the effectiveness of training and redeploy as necessary. A good example of this is simulating a phishing attack, where your staff is targeted by a controlled phishing attempt. This will help you get an understanding of how susceptible they are and how much your organization is at risk. Using this information, you can retrain employees who need it most, which reduces your exposure. Implement Layered Technical Controls In addition to training and testing your staff, you should also implement layered email security measures. At a minimum, this should include an email hygiene filter like Microsoft Defender for Office 365, an endpoint security agent, real-time threat detection, and automated remediation of confirmed malicious emails. This approach helps limit the number of attacks that reach your staff  minimizing damage from successful phishing attacks . Of course, these layers are part of an overall enterprise security architecture that may include firewalls, patch management, penetration testing, and access governance. Leverage Security Training to Engage Your Staff in Real-Time Defense Users cannot reliably identify social engineering attacks, but they can perform an initial analysis of messages classified as suspicious by machine learning models and other automated real-time detection techniques. For example, a natural language process engine could notify a user that an email is suspicious based on indicators such as Masquerading A type of threat where an unauthorized entity gains access to a system and is a cting like trusted entities, such as familiar brands or people. For example, if a user leaves the terminal open and is logged in, masquerading becomes easier since authentication requirements have been entered and may not need to be entered again. Urgency Confusing victims by creating a false sense of urgency. This can provoke users into a state of fear or excitement so they act quickly. For example, phishing emails may contain a catchy subject line stating the recipient needs to act quickly for a sale that is ending soon. An email like this will likely contain phishing links that can launch malicious attacks on a recipients computer. Taking advantage Criminals may try to take advantage of peoples sense of indebtedness or even conditioned responses to authority. For example, cybercriminals may call potential victims and act as authoritative figures, such as managers or fake law enforcement, leveraging fear to gain sensitive information. Equipped with this real-time information in the specific context of an individual threat, users can apply their training to Stay a lert There should be a sense of suspicion with any unsolicited communications. This is why having protocols set in place enhances email security. If a potential phishing attack includes a strange link and its a known protocol not to do so, it can make it easier for an employee to spot a phishing scam . Double- c heck e mail a ddresses Check if your emails genuinely came from their stated recipient. A common technique is to use numbers that resemble letters since recipients may easily overlook them, but in reality, the email is coming from a fake sender. Be c autious of a ttachments Avoid opening any suspicious-looking email attachments . Always take note of the subscriptions you sign up for and if attachments arent typically included or you werent expecting them, avoid clicking or downloading. Think t wice Make sure to think twice before providing any sensitive information via email. Any type of sensitive information should be on a secured form from a legitimate website and never through a non-business or personal email account. Website s ecurity Check any websites security before you submit sensitive information, even if it seems legitimate. These days, SSL certificates are easy to obtain and there is an increase in malware being delivered through HTTPS , so youll want to remain extra cautious. Pay attention to URLs Typosquatting, also referred to as URL hijacking, or sting sites, is when cybercriminals purposely buy misspelled domains and make sites look genuine , or have web addresses that are subtly different in arrangement from the actual site they are imitating. Check for s poofing Determine whether emails have been spoofed by hovering over the senders name. This helps to make sure the senders name matches the email address. This is a common technique used to gain sensitive information because a cybercriminal will act as a representative of the company. Check g rammar Check for spelling errors and other common giveaways. This should be the first thing you look for since its the easiest to catch. Bad grammar and formality should warn you to stay vigilant. Final Thoughts These types of social engineering attacks are constantly on the rise, but staying vigilant can ensure that you and your employees do not fall victim to these tricks. Having protocols and guidelines in place can drastically reduce socially engineered attacks, but it can not solve them entirely. This is where Cyrens Inbox Security for Office 365 or Threat InDepth can help your business stop social engineering attacks in their tracks. Find out how to investigate targeted phishing incidents.

Input: Search Free Trial Get Demo What is Spyware? February 14, 2022 Spyware is a type of malicious software that enters your computer or mobile device without consent in order to gain access to your personal information and data and relays it to a third party. Considered a type of malware, spyware spies on the computer user, capturing keystrokes, emails, documents, or even turning on the video camera. Spyware has been a part of the public discourse since the mid-90s and in the early 2000s the term spyware began being used by cybersecurity companies in much of the same way that it is used today. Today, spyware continues to be the most common threat on the internet and because of the way it quietly infiltrates your computer, it can be extremely hard to detect. Types of Spyware  Other Related Malicious Malware Terms Trojans A type of malicious software that disguises itself as legitimate. Often acting as an important update or file, you are tricked into letting the spyware in. It then either steals, disrupts, or damages your personal data. Adware A type of tracking software that tracks your browser history in order to sell your data to advertisers so that they can better target you with ads. Adware can either be used for legitimate purposes or malicious ones. In addition to advertising, the adware may include spyware that spies on the users computer activities and browser preferences without their knowledge. Ransomware Limits or blocks users from accessing individual files or entire systems until a ransom is paid. Sometimes, these attacks may use the information found in a spyware attack to demand a ransom. Dropper A type of malicious software used to install spyware code. They are often designed to avoid detection from traditional anti-visual protection solutions. Internet TrackingCookies Tracking cookie files can also be placed into your server in order to track your web activity and used for malicious marketing purposes. System Monitors There are a number of applications that can be deceitfully added to your computer like Keyloggers, Infostealers, and Password Stealers, in order to track any activity on your computer like keystrokes, chatroom dialogues, websites visited, as well as collect sensitive information like passwords and health data. Keyloggers A lso referred to as system monitors, these are applications that capture computer activity via screenshots to capture keystrokes, search history, email discussions, chatroom conversation, websites visited and more. Infostealers An application that scans infected computers with the goal of collecting personal information like usernames, passwords, documents, spreadsheets, and then transmits the information to a remote server. Password Stealers A malicious application that steals passwords from infected computers or mobile devices. How Does Spyware Work? 1. Device Infiltration Spyware has the potential to infiltrate your device due to a number of factors Your device has security vulnerabilities  such as backdoors and exploits. Phishing and spoofing  when criminals try to get you to perform an action like open a malware-infected file or asking you to give up your password credentials. Misleading marketing  marketing tactics can be effective in tricking users to download their spyware program by presenting it as a useful tool. Software bundles  Free software packages are appealing to users and criminals may conceal a malicious add-on, plug-in, or extension to these software programs. Trojan horses  Malicious code or software disguised as legitimate but used for the purpose of entering ones computer and disrupting, damaging, or stealing. Mobile device spyware  Malicious apps for Android or Apple users that either contain harmful code, are disguised as legitimate apps or contain fake download links. 2. Steal your Data Once the spyware is downloaded to your computer, it then begins tracking your online activity via keystrokes, screen captures, web searches, and more, in order to collect your data 3. Sends Data to a Third Party After the spyware collects your data, it then sends it to a third party source or used directly. What Types of Problems Are Caused By Spyware? Identity and Data Theft When personal information like email accounts, saved passwords for online banking, credit card information, and social security numbers, is stolen, it can be used for the purpose of identity theft. Computer and System Damages Spyware software is often poorly designed and has the potential to drain your computers energy, memory, and processing power. This can result in severe lags between opening applications, your computer overheating, and even the system crashing. Browsing Disturbances Spyware can manipulate your search engines into delivering unwanted websites that are either fraudulent or dangerous.

Input: Search Free Trial Get Demo Emotet From a Banking Trojan to One of the Most Advanced Botnets March 11, 2019 In 2014, the Emotet malware started as a banking Trojan targeting European bank customers. Back then, nobody expected this malware would evolve into one of the most dangerous botnets in the world. Weve been getting a lot of questions about the Emotet malware and its eponymous botnet, as its versatility has led it to become extremely prominent for an analysis of a variant targeting Amazon shoppers last Christmas, see an earlier blog post here , and has some unusual aspects, perhaps beginning with the simple fact that both the malware and botnet use the same name. So we decided to put together a quick primer on it reviewing the history of its development, and walk through the mechanics of how it works. What is Emotet? Emotet is distributed by the cyber group Mealybug, and was first discovered by security researchers in 2014. Originally, it was designed as a banking Trojan targeting mostly German and Austrian bank customers and stealing their login credentials, but over time it has evolved and proven itself to be extremely versatile and even more effective. Functionality has been added to obtain emails, financial data, browsing history, saved passwords, and Bitcoin wallets. The malware is also now capable of adding the infected machine to a botnet to perform DDoS attacks or to send out spam emails. Once a computer or another device is infected, Emotet tries to infiltrate associated systems via brute-force attacks. Armed with a list of common passwords, the Trojan guesses its way from the victims device onto other connected machines. An infected machine makes contact with the botnets Command and Control CC servers so that it will be able to receive updates as well as using the CC as a dumping ground for the stolen data. The scale of what the Emotet botnet can do is not to be underestimated. Research shows that a single Emotet bot can send a few hundred thousand emails in just one hour, which suggests it is theoretically capable of sending a few million in a day. Extrapolating from some of our analysis and adding a dose of guestimation, if the size of the Emotet botnet is on the order of a few hundred thousand bots lets say 400,000 for the sake of argument, and each bot is capable of sending 3 million emails in a day, were into a capacity of over a trillion emails a day. This is speculative, we dont know the real size of the botnet nor fully understand the variability in behavior of different bots, but its certainly an extremely potent and prolific botnet. Recent developments Emotet is constantly evolving, and in 2018, Mealybug added the ability to deliver and install other malware, for example ransomware. One of Emotets most recent features is that on infection, the malware checks if its new victims are on IP blocklists, indicating that the IP address is known for doing bad things. This would, for example, apply to IP addresses that have been seen distributing malicious emails, conducting port scanning or taken part in a DDoS attack. With the new additions and its growing complexity, the Trojans geographic range has expanded to Europe, Asia, and North and Central America. How does Emotet infect machines and spread? Emotet has three main ways of reaching victims. The first is malspam sent by Emotet-infected machines. The malware can also crawl networks and spread using brute-force attacks. Additionally, Emotet has worm-like abilities and makes use of the EternalBlue vulnerability that became famous after WannaCry made use of it to infect its victims. The malicious emails from Emotet are often made to look like they come from well-known, familiar brands like Amazon or DHL with common subjects i.e. Your Invoice or Payment Details. In early versions, the targeted machine was infected by the user clicking on a malicious link contained in the mail content. This link would redirect the victim several times and eventually download the Emotet malware. Since November 2018, the infection is done by a Word or PDF file in the mail attachment. When opening the Word document, one is asked to enable macros, and if this is done, the document runs a PowerShell script which downloads and executes the Trojan. The PDF file, however, contains a malicious link that downloads and runs Emotet by simply clicking on it. Upon infection, the targeted system becomes part of Emotets botnet. Systems on the same network are then in danger of infection because of the malwares network crawling ability. Furthermore, the botnet can activate the malwares spamming module, making the targeted system spread malicious emails that will infect more machines and grow the botnet. The emails are sent from the victims email accounts to their friends, family, clients and other contacts. People are more likely to open emails from people they know, so this increases the likelihood of the emails being opened and the botnet expanding. Emotet is not designed to look for a specific target individuals, companies, and governmental institutions are all at risk of being taken over by one of the most advanced botnets ever created. Emotet affects different versions of the Windows operating system, and infects it by running a PowerShell script, as well as taking advantage of the EternalBlueDoublePulsar vulnerabilities. On top of this, the Trojan is capable of harvesting sent and received emails from an infiltrated Microsoft Outlook account. Multiple types of techniques to evade detection Emotet is a polymorphically designed malware, which means it can change itself every time it is downloaded to bypass signature-based detection. Furthermore, it detects if it is running in a virtual machine and it will lay dormant if it identifies a sandbox environment. One of the most obvious evasion tactics Emotet makes use of is probably the variation of the spam emails content. Although it mostly sends emails looking like they come from familiar brands, the content still varies too much to definitively be identified as an Emotet mail. In addition, the Trojan is capable of changing the emails subject line to evade spam filters, and also has the ability to check if a victims or a recipients IP address is on a blacklist or a spam list. If security was inadequate and a system has already been compromised, one method for confirming the malwares presence can be checking the mailbox rules of the supposedly infected email address. If one can find a rule to auto-forward all email to an external address, the Trojan has in all probability infiltrated the machine. In general, it can be challenging for an IT administrator or security analyst to manually find direct evidence of Emotet since the malware, for example, deletes the Alternate Data Stream. To be sure about a possible infection, it is best to do an automated system scan. The flow of a successful infection usually follows the sequence illustrated below. 1 Example Emotet email sent to recipient Example attachment recipient is induced to open When the user accepts the request to allow macros to run in the attachment, that starts a process in the background, which obviously is not visible to the victim. A macro starts cmd.exe and runs a PowerShell script, which looks like this This script tries to make contact with five different sources to download from one of them. Once it manages to download an executable to a temporary folder it names it 726.exe, which gets executed. The executable is then moved to a different folder, run under a different process name. That process makes contact with a CC server in Argentina here and the machine is now a part of the Emotet botnet.

Input: Search Free Trial Get Demo Office 365 Top Brand Targeted by Phishing Kits in 2018 December 14, 2018 As 2018 comes to a close, Cyren security researchers wanted to contribute to the customary year-end wrap-ups by sharing The 20 Most Targeted Brands The 5 Most Used Phishing Kits by Attackers Three Phishing Trends to Look for in 2019 Criminals are nothing if not financial opportunists, and the boom in phishing has been like a cybercrime gold rush While some are panning for gold, others are selling the tools and equipment. In 2018, the underground phishing economy has come of age, with the evolution of phishing kits offering spoofed web pages  basic equipment for any phishing attack  a prime example. Phishing-as-a-Service as a broader phenomenon has ushered in a new era of sophistication and access for the low-level cybercriminal  democratizing phishing attacks. What used to take a team of skilled designers, developers, and hackers to architect, build and deploy can now be purchased on the internet for as little as fifty bucks, or rented as a turn-key service for roughly the same amount a month. Top 20 Brands Most Targeted in 2018 by Professional Phishing Kits Cyren analyzed 2,025 phishing kits during Q3 and Q4 2018, and our study showed which brands are most targeted by phishing kit developers, and also revealed which specific phishing kits are the most usedeffectively, which kits have the highest market share. As we dug deeper, we found three notable trends that have upped the ante in 2018  and are critically important to understand as we look ahead to 2019. From our analysis of 2,025 phishing kits, below is a list of the brands most frequently targeted by phishing kits 1 Microsoft Office 25.4 2 Yahoo 17.2 3 Paypal 17.1 4 Dropbox 9.8 5 Apple 5.0 6 Gmail 3.9 7 AOL 3.8 8 Bank of America 3.7 9 Excel 2.8 10 Chase 2.7 11 Facebook 1.6 12 Instagram 1.4 13 DHL 1.0 14 Wells Fargo 1.0 15 Netflix 0.8 16 Onedrive 0.6 17 Twitter 0.3 18 Skype 0.3 19 Google Drive 0.1 20 USAA 0.1 5 Top Phishing Kits of 2018 In 2018, the number of phishing attacks has risen along with the sophistication of attackers. The top five phishing kits highlighted below are notable because they are high in volume, highly targeted and highly sophisticated  a trifecta that is emboldening low-level criminals to take on some of the biggest brandsand enterprises. 1  Multi-brand Microsoft Office 365 Phishing Kit The most-used phishing kit targets Microsoft Office 365 and Outlook credentials. While consumer brands still get the most overall phishing activity, its clear that the phishing-as-a-service market is meeting demand to penetrate enterprises, with the goal of finding deeper pockets. This kit was found in use most frequently with spoofed Office 365 login pages, but it is a multi-brand kitit also provides spoofed pages for AOL, Bank of America, Chase, Daum, DHL, Dropbox, Facebook, Gmail, Skype, USAA, Webmail, Wells Fargo, and Yahoo. 2  Microsoft Office 365 Phishing Kit This kit is specific to Office 365 phishing, and includes built-in techniques to evade detection, including blocking IPs and security bots and user agents to hide from standard phishing defenses. 3  PayPal Phishing Kit Unlike cheap and phony PayPal emails from yesteryear, this phishing kit employs new levels of sophistication, with several evasive techniques. Buyer and spender beware. 4  Multi-brand Kit If the Fortune 100 and a Swiss Army Knife had a Phishing Kit Baby, this would be it . For the cybercriminal who loves to steal all sorts of stuff, theres this ever-popular multi-brand kit. Want to hack into lifestyle brands? Apple and Netflix are included. Looking for data? You can target Dropbox and Excel. Email credentials? Gmail and Yahoo are here. How about banking? Chase, PayPal and Bank of America. This one-stop shop for many of the most-targeted brands also includes significant sophistication to avoid detection  it analyzes and blocks specific IPs, hosts, user agents, and offline browsers in order to make it harder to detect. 5  Dropbox Phishing Kit When it comes to enterprise phishing attacks, context and credentials are power. In this attack, cybercriminals are looking to capture credentials  both to access any enterprise files that might be stored there, and to see if those same credentials might unlock access to other enterprise accounts. Its example of how more phishing attacks are moving upstream and targeting enterprises. Key Phishing Trends to Watch While phishing has targeted large brands for some time, our analysis points to three significant trends brought on by a new generation of highly professional phishing kits Phishing-made-easy means more targeted attacks. With the new phishing kits, even technically unsophisticated would-be criminals have the tools, services and support they need to pursue specific, even local targets and evade detection. The professional phishing industry is prioritizing enabling enterprise attacks. While consumers and consumer brands still bear the brunt of most phishing activity, the most in-demand phishing attacks are exhibiting higher demand to penetrate enterprise accounts. Evasive phishing is a thing. The five top phishing kits are notable because they are high in volume, highly targeted and highly sophisticated  a trifecta that is emboldening low-level criminals to take on some of the biggest brands.

Mehr als die Hälfte der Organisationen melden mindestens einen erfolgreichen Phishing-Angriff in den vergangenen 12 Monaten sie meldeten sogar durchschnittlich 11,7 erfolgreiche Phishing-Angriffe oder einen pro Monat . Dies geht Hand in Hand mit der Tatsache, dass mehr als die Hälfte der Teilnehmer angaben, dass das Volumen von Phishing-E-Mails sowohl volumen- als auch zielgerichtetes Phishing, das bei ihren Office 365-Benutzern ankommt, im vergangenen Jahr um 25 Prozent zunahm. Die gleiche Anzahl an Befragten bezeichnete ihre Phishing-Sicherheit als schlecht oder mittelmäßig. Wie gegen schwer zu erkennendes Phishing vorgehen? Der Ansturm an Phishing-Angriffen und erfolgreichen Verletzungen korreliert direkt mit dem jüngsten Aufstieg der Phishing-as-a-Service-Industrie und der zunehmenden Nutzung von schwer zu erkennenden Phishing-Methoden. Um Ihre Sicherheit zu verbessern, können Sie die folgenden fünf Schritte in Erwägung ziehen, die wir in einer Einführung in Office 365-Phishing-Sicherheitslösungen Link ganz unten aufgeführt haben Ergänzen Sie die native Office 365-E-Mail-Sicherheit mit cloudbasiertem E-Mail-Gateway-Schutz von einem Sicherheitsanbieter. Cloudbasierte sichere E-Mail-Gateways bieten erweiterte Sicherheit wie Time-of-Click-URL-Analysen, Inline-Sandboxing und robusteren Schutz vor Phishing und Spear-Phishing. Stellen Sie Posteingangs-Scanning nach der Zustellung bereit. Fügen Sie eine Phishing-Sicherheitsschicht am Posteingang hinzu, die aktiviert wird, nachdem eine E-Mail vom Gateway gescannt und zugestellt wurde. Wählen Sie unter cloudbasierten Diensten, die kontinuierlich Office 365-Benutzer-Posteingänge überwachen, Sicherheitsverletzungen erfassen und beheben. Solche Dienste können auch nützlich sein, um die Reaktion bei einem Vorfall zu unterstützen, indem E-Mail-Administratoren benachrichtigt werden, um eine sofortige Untersuchung einzuleiten, und nach Auffinden einer Sicherheitsverletzung das Entfernen des gleichen E-Mail-Angriffs aus den Posteingängen aller Benutzer zu automatisieren. Stellen Sie ein Web-Sicherheits-Gateway bereit. Ein wirksames Websicherheits-Gateway blockiert Verbindungen zu Phishing-Websites und Botnet-Command  Control-Servern Befehls- und Steuerzentralen. Weil die meisten Bedrohungen heutzutage gemischte Bedrohungen darstellen, die per E-Mail eintreffen, aber über das Internet fertiggestellt werden, kann eine effektive Websicherheit als Erweiterung der E-Mail-Sicherheit und umgekehrt! betrachtet werden. Verwenden Sie Multi-Faktor-Authentifizierung. Die Wiederverwendung von Passwörtern macht Phishing für Kriminelle besonders attraktiv. Implementieren Sie Multi-Faktor-Authentifizierung unter Office 365, um Verletzungen der E-Mail-Account-Sicherheit zu verhindern. Office 365-Anmeldedaten und die für andere Microsoft-Anwendungen betreffen die Geschäftsanwendungen, die am häufigsten ins Visier geraten. Das liegt an ihrer weiten Verbreitung und der Tatsache, dass nach Erfassen der Anmeldedaten für eine Anwendung auch die Tore der anderen integrierten Dienste völlig offen stehen. Schulen Sie Benutzer kontinuierlich. Schulen Sie Benutzer zu Social Engineering-Tricks, die von Kriminellen eingesetzt werden, testen Sie die Benutzer und wiederholen Sie dies kontinuierlich. Die oben zitierte Umfrage von Osterman Research ergab, dass 94 Prozent der Unternehmen mit mehr als 100 Mitarbeitern eine Phishing-Schulung durchführen. Die Tatsache, dass die meisten Phishing-Angriffe trotzdem Erfolg haben, bedeutet offensichtlich, dass es nicht ausreicht, sich darauf zu verlassen, dass Mitarbeiter Phishing-E-Mail erkennen. Oft hört man Aussagen von IT-Managern wie z. B. 40 Prozent meiner Benutzer klicken auf alles . Das Konzept der umfassenden Verteidigung oder Defense-in-Depth betont aber, dass informierte Mitarbeiter zur Risikominderung beitragen.

Heres how attackers use sophisticated tactics to bypass the SEG and trick users into taking the bait. Fooling the SEG Activating or uploading malicious content to a target web page only after the email has been scanned isnt a new scam. Advanced SEGs countered this tactic with time-of-click detection, which automatically rescans an email when the user clicks the link. It gives the SEG one last chance to detect a malicious URL. Related Block Evasive Phishing with Email Security Defense-in-Depth However, it is not without flaws. Spear phishing and Business Email Compromise BEC attacks dont contain URLs or attachments, so they appear harmless to the SEG. Once the tainted email has evaded the SEG, the user is the last line of defense. What it looks like Often a Business Email Compromise attack uses the organizations own internal communications to listen, learn, and execute a crime. The attacker might target and then observe the mailbox of a well-placed employee to learn when an executive is going on vacation, what payments are coming due, and who is responsible for vendor payments. This information can be used to plan a convincing wire fraud attack. Yes this happens. Fooling the user Evasion tactics trick users as well. 50 of users click on links because social engineering creates a sense of urgency, especially when cousin domains are used to obfuscate URLs Punycode attacks use foreign language characters that resemble English ones Attackers serve up local versions of a spoofed site, so the domain looks legitimate, but its not What it looks like Consider the employee who receives a vendor email saying a security vulnerability in the shadow application he is using has just been patched, so please click now to update and verify your ID. Not only does a counterfeit emailsite look and act like the real thing, it has all the expected security trappings. Even the most vigilant, security-trained users fall for these tricks. Fooling cybersecurity Bad actors even manage to evade detection by cybersecurity companies! They learn the IP address ranges of these companies and block the connection attempt. Or they change a couple of pixels in a fingerprinted image so tampering isnt detected. Target website HTML code is often obfuscated and encrypted. Its time to layer Inbox Detection and Response on top of SEGs Enterprises using cloud-hosted email urgently need an inner layer of email security called Inbox Detection and Response IDR. IDR solutions hook into users inboxes, and continuously scan all inbound and outbound emails in all folders.
