By Jon Munshaw. Welcome to this week’s edition of the Threat Source newsletter. Public schools in the United States already rely on our teachers for so much — they have to be educators, occasional parental figures, nurses, safety officers, law enforcement and much more. Slowly, they’re having to add “IT admin” to their list of roles. Educational institutions have increasingly become a target for ransomware attacks, an issue already highlighted this year by a major cyber attack on the combined Los Angeles school district in California that schools are still recovering from. Teachers there reported that during the week of the attack, they couldn’t enter attendance, lost lesson plans and presentations, and had to scrap homework plans. Technology has become ever-present in classrooms, so any minimal disruption in a school’s network or software can throw pretty much everything off. The last thing teachers need to worry about now is defending against a well-funded threat act...

By Jon Munshaw. Welcome to this week’s edition of the Threat Source newsletter. It seems like there’s at least one major password breach every month — if not more. Most recently, there was an incident at Plex where all users had to reset their passwords. Many users pay for a password management service — which is something I’ve talked about a ton for Talos. But even those aren’t a one-size-fits-all solution. LastPass, one of the most popular password management services, recently suffered a breach of their own internal development environment, though as of right now, it doesn’t appear like any users’ primary passwords were compromised. This got me curious about how people prefer to manage their passwords, so I threw up a poll on our Twitter asking our readers how they managed their passwords. Paid password management services like LastPass and 1Password were the most popular response, followed by web browser-based managers like the ones Chrome and Safari offer. Several o...
A malicious campaign mounted by the North Korea-linked Lazarus Group is targeting energy providers around the world, including those based in the United States, Canada, and Japan. “The campaign is meant to infiltrate organizations around the world for establishing long-term access and subsequently exfiltrating data of interest to the adversary’s nation-state,” Cisco Talos said in a report shared
By Jung soo An, Asheer Malhotra and Vitor Ventura. Cisco Talos has been tracking a new campaign operated by the Lazarus APT group, attributed to North Korea by the United States government. This campaign involved the exploitation of vulnerabilities in VMWare Horizon to gain an initial foothold into targeted organizations. Targeted organizations include energy providers from around the world, including those headquartered in the United States, Canada and Japan. The campaign is meant to infiltrate organizations around the world for establishing long term access and subsequently exfiltrating data of interest to the adversary's nation-state. Talos has discovered the use of two known families of malware in these intrusions — VSingle and YamaBot. Talos has also discovered the use of a recently disclosed implant we're calling "MagicRAT" in this campaign. Introduction Cisco Talos observed North Korean state-sponsored APT Lazarus Group conducting malicious activity between February...
