1. The document discusses an advanced retail breach where an attacker was able to access a third party contractor's system after phishing their credentials, use that to access the retailer's internal file server, infect POS systems with malware to scrape credit card data from RAM, send the data to an internal server, and then exfiltrate it to external FTP servers in Russia.
2. The IBM X-Force monitors threats and educates customers on security challenges. It analyzed this attack to understand how the attacker was able to compromise systems and extract card data without detection.
3. The document provides recommendations to prevent similar attacks, such as endpoint protection, network segmentation, monitoring and detection of anomalies, and incident response planning.

Mitre ATT&CK and the Mueller GRU Indictment: Lessons for OrganizationsDigital Shadows
A recent indictment revealed how the GRU (Russia’s Military Intelligence agency) used both influence operations and network intrusions to achieve its policy aims. More precisely, the GRU weaponized the use of the network intrusions in its influence operations. We have used the MITRE ATT&CK framework as our methodology to play back the findings of the indictment. In doing so, we aim to provide key lessons organizations can take away from this indictment.

Using Massively Distributed Malware in APT-Style AttacksIBM Security
APTs are often associated with highly-customized malware, specifically tailored for the target of the attack. But in 2014, several APT-Style attacks involved the use of massively distributed malware to gain access to enterprise systems and corporate data.
The use of massively distributed malware provides significant advantages to the attackers who no longer need to spear phish targets or design custom malware. Instead, they use mass-distribution techniques to infect as many PCs as possible. According to IBM Trusteer research, 1:500 PCs in the world is already infected with Citadel, Zeus, or similar malware. Once a machine is infected with the malware, a new instruction set can be provided to turn the malware against different targets, or work with different command and controls (C&C) servers.
In this webinar, Dana Tamir, Director of Enterprise Security Product Marketing, examines the use of massively distributed malware in recent APT-Style attacks and discusses the impact of this emerging trend on enterprise IT security paradigms.
You will learn:
• Which types of malware used in these attacks
• How evasion techniques are used to bypass detection solutions
• What kind of information is most targeted
• How Trusteer Apex addresses these threats with a new approach to endpoint security

Ramnit is a worm that spreads through removable drives by infecting files. The worm (W32.Ramnit) was first discovered in early 2010 and later that year, a second variant of Ramnit (W32.Ramnit.B) was identified. Since then, Ramnit’s operators have made considerable upgrades to the threat, including implementing the use of modules, which was borrowed from the leaked source code of the Zeus banking Trojan (Trojan.Zbot) in May 2011.
Currently, Ramnit’s operators are primarily focused on information-stealing tactics, targeting data such as passwords and online banking login credentials. They also install remote access tools on affected computers in order to maintain back door connectivity. It is estimated that the Ramnit botnet may consist of up to 350,000 compromised computers worldwide.

Hacking is a term used to refer to activities aimed at exploiting security flaws to obtain critical information for gaining access to secured networks.
Part3- Offline traffic monitoring In this part will use a PCAP file to.docxfarrahkur54
Part3: Offline traffic monitoring In this part will use a PCAP file to examine the network traffic (offline traffic monitoring) using three IDS tools - Snort - Suricata - Zeek The PCAP file with the name part3.pcap (attached with the project files) containing a captured network traffic for some company having a web site and 256 addresses in the range (192.168.6.0 - 192.168.6.255). The IP address for the network gateway (edge router) is ( 192.168.6.1 ) . The captured network traffic is for some period of time when an attacker started to perform intrusion against the company network. The suspicious address is 192.168.5.55, which conducted a multi-stage attack starting with reconnaissance. A kill chain representing multi-stage attack is a systematic process to target and engage an attacker to perform the desired attack. The following steps are the typical stages followed by any professional attacker. 1. Reconnaissance - Research, identification and selection of targets, often represented as crawling Internet websites such as conference proceedings and mailing lists for email addresses, social relationships, or information on specific technologies. 2. Weaponization - Coupling a remote access trojan with an exploit into a deliverable payload, typically by means of an automated tool (weaponizer). Increasingly, client application data files such as Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) or Microsoft Office documents serve as the weaponized deliverable. 3. Delivery - Transmission of the weapon to the targeted environment. The three most prevalent delivery vectors for weaponized payloads by APT actors, as observed by the Lockheed Martin Computer Incident Response Team (LM-CIRT) for the years 2004-2010, are email attachments, websites, and USB removable media. 4. Exploitation - After the weapon is delivered to victim host, exploitation triggers intruders' code. Most often, exploitation targets an application or operating system vulnerability, but it could also more simply exploit the users themselves or leverage an operating system feature that auto-executes code. 5. Installation - Installation of a remote access trojan or backdoor on the victim system allows the adversary to maintain persistence inside the environment. 6. Command and Control (C2) - Typically, compromised hosts must beacon outbound to an Internet controller server to establish a C2 channel. APT malware especially requires manual interaction rather than conduct activity automatically. Once the C 2 channel establishes, intruders have "hands on the keyboard" access inside the target environment. 7. Actions on Objectives - Only now, after progressing through the first six phases, can intruders take actions to achieve their original objectives. Typically, this objective is data exfiltration which involves collecting, encrypting and extracting information from the victim environment; violations of data integrity or availability are potential objectives as well. Alternatively, the intruders may.
This white paper examines how the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) relates to IBM i servers and highlights when the PowerTech products can provide a solution to specific PCI requirements.

Accelerating SOC Transformation with IBM Resilient and Carbon BlackIBM Security
Security Operation Centers (SOCs) today are complex environments. They often have too many separate tools, uncoordinated analysts in the response process, and confusion around alert prioritization. Because of this, SOCs consistently struggle responding to the most urgent incidents.
The integration between IBM Resilient and Carbon Black helps SOCs overcome these challenges. IBM Resilient’s Intelligent Orchestration combined with Carbon Black Response provides a single view for all relevant response data and streamlines the entire security process. This makes it simpler for analysts to quickly and efficiently remediate cyberattacks.
Join experts Chris Berninger, Business Development Engineer, Carbon Black, and Hugh Pyle, Product Manager, IBM Resilient, for this webinar, to learn:
- How the IBM Resilient-Carbon Black integration works within your SOC to accelerate incident response improvement
- Strategies to implement Intelligent Orchestrate and automation into your incident response process
- Actions that can be taken today for maximizing the effectiveness of your SOC
How to Build a Faster, Laser-Sharp SOC with Intelligent OrchestrationIBM Security
To keep pace with cyberattacks, organizations have long sought ways to operationalize security and respond faster to threats. But with increasingly complex IT environments and a growing skills shortage, doing so is easier said than done.
That’s where Intelligent Orchestration can help. Intelligent Orchestration integrates your existing security tools and guides SOC analysts through a fast and laser-focused response by combining case management, human and cyber intelligence, and incident response orchestration and automation.
Are You Ready to Move Your IAM to the Cloud?IBM Security
Many companies are considering moving their current identity and access management (IAM) implementations to the cloud, or they are looking at the cloud for their new IAM use cases. This might be driven by the threat of attacks via identities, increasing compliance mandates, expanding needs of end users for frictionless data access or improving the total cost of ownership.
View this presentation and watch the corresponding webinar to help you determine whether your organization is ready to move to IDaaS.
Orchestrate Your Security Defenses to Optimize the Impact of Threat IntelligenceIBM Security
Although the majority of organizations subscribe to threat intelligence feeds to enhance their security decision making, it's difficult to take full advantage of true insights due to the overwhelming amounts of information available. Even with an integrated security operations portfolio to identify and respond to threats, many companies don't take full advantage of the benefits of external context that threat intelligence brings to identify true indicators of compromise. By taking advantage of both machine- and human-generated indicators within a collaborative threat intelligence platform, security analysts can streamline investigations and speed the time to action.
Join this webinar to hear from the IBM Security Chief Technology Officer for Threat Intelligence to learn:
How the IBM Security Operations and Response architecture can help you identify and response to threats faster
Why threat intelligence is a fundamental component of security investigations
How to seamlessly integrate threat intelligence into existing security solutions for immediate action
Your Mainframe Environment is a Treasure Trove: Is Your Sensitive Data Protec...IBM Security
Businesses and governments alike are experiencing an alarming rate of malicious activity from both external and internal actors.
Not surprisingly, mission-critical mainframe applications make for desirable targets with large repositories of enterprise customer sensitive data. Mainframe environments are increasingly at risk opening accesses through the internet, mobile initiatives, big data initiatives, social initiatives, and more to drive the business forward. Additionally, there are some security challenges that are specific to the mainframe - traditional protection methods are no longer enough, insider threats are also on the rise, mainframe environments could be more vulnerable with reliance on privilege users to administer security, silo-ed mainframe IT management, limited ownership visibility, and lack of uniformed security management across the enterprise.
View this on-demand webcast to learn more about specific mainframe data protection challenges, top tips for protecting sensitive data, and key data protection capabilities that you should consider to address these challenges.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
