Not too many deliveries make me jump off my chair, but this one certainly did! My new book arrived and I just can't wait to delve into its 1000+ pages...

Federal Bureau of Investigation (#FBI) and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (#CISA) have put out a joint advisory on #ScatteredSpider - a #cybercriminal group that targets large companies and their contracted information technology (IT) help desks. Scattered Spider threat actors, per trusted third parties, have typically engaged in data theft for extortion and have also been known to utilize BlackCat/ALPHV ransomware alongside their usual TTPs. This advisory covers all #TTPs and provides recommendations for mitigation.

Anyone in #criticalinfrastructure who uses external IT services (#MSP) should review this advisory and create awareness with your users to #BOLO this advanced attack vector.

This crew are masters of #SocialEngineering so watch yourselves. #StayCyberSafe #BeCyberSecure

Interneppers ofwel cybercriminelen doen zich voor als iemand anders om je gegevens te stelen of om je op te lichten via mail, sms of WhatsApp. Hiervoor gebruiken ze vaak #socialengineering technieken.

Bij social engineering worden er wisselende trucs gebruikt. Door zich voor te doen als iemand anders en door handig in te spelen op persoonlijke situaties, krijgen #cybercriminelen het voor elkaar om je op het verkeerde been te zetten.

This novel method came up the other day. Someone made a google photos album and is sharing it out to people. They may be the owner of that google account or it was made via a compromised account. Either case, they are appealing to the thirsty and hope you contact them further.

Less of these are trying to immediately get you to buy into something. They want details about you. They wanna match up information and after three different fake accounts chat with you, they may have enough information to sell to someone who will then pretend to be you and maybe steal your accounts or money or take out credit.

You can always tell these people because no matter what you say, they will try to keep talking to you. Something seemingly innocent like talking about your day will slowly reveal important details they can sell. And the people who they sell this too are trained to take from you. Social engineering sucks, but it's a job now that people with time and a need for money can do and in the end you are just a paycheck.

Aujourd'hui à #ThrowbackThursday:

Présenté lors de la 7e édition, Lucky, du Hackfest en 2015, Shane MacDougall's "A SE journey through an IT Pro's social media profile" est LA conférence du moment à regarder (en anglais).

Si notre dernière compétition d'ingénierie sociale (lors du dernier Hackfest - Back to the Future edition) peut être un indicatif sur l'importance de ce sujet chaud (salle comble, et statistiques + que déprimante mais OH COMBIEN nécessaire sur le succès de récolter des données via l'ingénierie sociale), c'est bel et bien qu'il est important de former les employés d'entreprises à éviter de donner accès aux données sensibles de leur entreprise, sans compter d'éduquer les gens à se protéger contre des vols d'informations sur leur vie privée!

Today at #ThrowbackThursday #TBT:

Shane MacDougall's "A SE journey through an IT Pro's social media profile" presented at #Hackfest Lucky edition.

If our last social engineering competition (at Hackfest Back to the Future edition) can be a very good indicator of the state of things right now, this talk will give you good arguments on how to educate your employees and colleagues towards protecting ourselves against social engineering tactics. It still shows the very importance of data and assets protection in our companies and our private lives, and of educating people against social hacking of this sort!

Microsoft published a new blog with an analysis of the TTPs of the Octo Tempest group (also known as 0ktapus or Scattered Spider), a financially motivated threat actor that relies heavily on #socialengineering for initial access.

This group is reportedly the one behind the Okta, MGM Resorts & Caesars this year, as well as the MailChimp & Twilio attacks last year.

"Octo Tempest commonly launches social engineering attacks targeting technical administrators, such as support and help desk personnel, who have permissions that could enable the threat actor to gain initial access to accounts. The threat actor performs research on the organization & identifies targets to effectively impersonate victims, mimicking idiolect on phone calls & understanding personal identifiable information to trick technical administrators into performing password resets & resetting MFA"

"Octo Tempest leverages tradecraft that many organizations don’t have in their typical threat models, such as SMS phishing, SIM swapping, and advanced social engineering techniques."

In reality, most organizations don't have a social engineering security protocol for most types of social engineering attacks beyond #phishing and *some* vishing attacks/tactics. There is a lot of work to be done...

It's European Cybersecurity Month!

This October is about #SocialEngineering - the tactics that cyber criminals use to get you to reveal your data.

While our #CyberAware team is educating Commission staff, the events are taking place across the EU 👉 https://cybersecuritymonth.eu

🚨The ENISA Threat Landscape Report 2023 was released today!

It includes the top threats, major trends observed with respect to threats, threat actors & attack techniques, impact and motivation analysis.

It also describes relevant mitigation measures.

The top 3 threats that were identified and analyzed were:

🔹 Ransomware
🔹 Malware
🔹 Social Engineering

The report is a very insightful resource, especially for those who seek to make informed decisions for their cybersecurity strategy the coming year.

Beware of #Ransomware: #Cybercriminals may use #SocialEngineering techniques to trick you into downloading a malware to take control of your system and ask you for money to regain its access. #BeSmarterThanAHacker, check our factsheet https://europa.eu/!RFvyTp #ENISA

📚New Blog!
The 2nd part of my "Corporate #OSINT for #SocialEngineering" article is now published.
This blog focuses on the *physical perimeter* of an organization.
It discusses some of the OSINT techniques used in the planning and preparation of in-person, social engineering attacks.

As security professionals, the goal is to proactively follow the same process a threat actor would to identify information that exposes potential vulnerabilities in our organization’s physical perimeter, and to manage those vulnerabilities.

My hope is that you'll proactively test those resources.

Need more help in getting the full picture on the information that is available about the physical perimeter of your organization? Feel free to reach out!

@volexity's #theatintel team works with some of the most targeted groups in the world. Today, at the LABScon conference, we are sharing details of a long-running campaign by EvilBamboo. We have also just published details on our blog: https://www.volexity.com/blog/2023/09/22/evilbamboo-targets-mobile-devices-in-multi-year-campaign/.

Our analysis has uncovered evidence of the attacker building online communities on various social media & messaging platforms, creating fake personas on social media sites, and using other #socialengineering techniques in order to distribute #Android malware, including #BADBAZAAR. Additionally, there is strong evidence of #iOS device targeting and likely exploitation using IRONSQUIRREL.

So some of you might remember this post (and the subsequent demonstration on national news) of using a voice cloning tool (AI, Audio Deep Fake) by @racheltobac

Link to post: https://infosec.exchange/@racheltobac/110963070495263373

(If you haven't seen it, go watch it. Rachel is amazing.)

I'd never needed to do a similar attack before, but! I was just tasked yesterday with researching it.

Asked some friends for a turn-key solution to clone voices. Got pointed to a website. Signed up for $1 a month (first month... then it goes to $5 a month thereafter).

Pulled some audio of my target's voice down from a youtube interview (a podcast works great too).

Only needed a minute's worth of audio.

Uploaded it to the website for cloning.

Typed out a quick script for the voice to read.

30 seconds later, I had my cloned audio.

It was so good, that it even included natural voice inflections AND!!! verbal pauses like umm's and uhh's that matched the target's original presentation. I can't tell the difference between the cloned voice and the original person.

Y'all... voice cloning and audio deep fakes are well past the ease of "script-kiddy" level. Anyone can do it.

Nice surprise to find that Engadget posted a story about social engineering attacks today, referencing the lessons learned in the investigation of the "image spam" attack that made up part of my #Defcon presentation. These kinds of attacks can be incredibly devastating (as evidenced by #MGM) and very hard to discern.

These are pretty complicated investigations and, in my opinion, it would be nice to have people in elected office who are capable of tearing apart things like this to get to the root cause.

ICYMI: I interviewed the hacker known as "USDoD" who was responsible for the InfraGard incident last year, as well as the recent Airbus and TransUnion breaches. He tells me he's been busy targeting NATO, Europol, CEPOL, and Interpol. He's an ambitious hacker and is really going after U.S. military intelligence in his own way and for his own endgame purposes.

Why does he tell us his targets? For the challenge -- he wants to beat his targets when they know he's coming.

Read what he told me in “I’m Not Pro-Russia and I’m Not a Terrorist!” —- InfraGard and Airbus Hacker 'USDoD' Unveils His New Campaigns:"

https://www.databreaches.net/im-not-pro-russia-and-im-not-a-terrorist-infragard-and-airbus-hacker-usdod-unveils-his-new-campaigns/

On a positive note, it appears that NATO detected him when he attempted to gain access to an internal area; part of their site has now been "under maintenance" for days.

How serious a threat is he really? I can't judge that -- maybe you can.

l+f: Zehnminuten-Telefonat ermöglicht MGM-Hack

Social Engineering at its finest: So einfach haben die Angreifer offensichtlich die Casino-Kette MGM Ressort attackiert.

It appears that the ALPHV ransomware group is behind MGM Resorts' cyberattack on Monday. The way they reportedly gained initial access is by looking into the MGM employees on LinkedIn, picking one, and then calling the Help Desk.

The ALPHV group is said to be "extremely skilled at social engineering".

Yet finding information on an organization's employees on LinkedIn & and then using it in a vishing attack, often impersonating that individual, is a frequent and rather standard practice in #vishing attacks.

I have seen first-hand that there is a need to improve in a few areas:

🔹 Few organizations are prepared to handle phone-based social engineering. Most companies focus almost entirely on #phishing attack simulations.
That allows blind spots and a lack of processes/preparedness in too many other areas like vishing, social media and SMS-based attacks among other things.

🔹 Having a proper identity verification process in place and training your employees to stick with it often mitigates a lot of vishing/impersonation attacks.
Yet in most cases, there is either a lack of verification process or the employees are not aware of it (they sometimes get trained on it once during onboarding, and then forget all about it).

🔹 Understanding that social engineering is not limited to email attacks. It is a serious threat, and it requires working on a comprehensive social engineering prevention protocol.

We are still waiting for more information on the exact methodology. But it won't be the last time we hear of a similar attack scenario.

@admin1 Last year, it would have been easy for me: Sneakers (1993) because it covers #hacking and #SocialEngineering very well.

This year is tougher. I will have to ponder this.

One of my favorite personal blog posts is my writeup of a #SocialEngineering conference I attended on a lark in 2019, back when I lived in Providence: https://fogknife.com/2019-06-19-report-on-attending-layer-8-conference-as-an-outsider.html

It came to mind earlier today when a met a fellow technical writer who specializes in #security. I got to show off my knowledge of what a "rubber ducky" is, in that specific context!

@threatresearch is previewing his talk on weird tales of #socialengineering and #malware at the #Sophos booth at #blackhat (#2132) today and Thursday, and then you can catch the full talk at the main DEF CON event.

Folks attending #blackhat tomorrow and Thursday can see a short preview version of my Defcon @SophosXOps talk at the #Sophos Booth #2132 at 3:30pm. Come for the George Clooney reaction GIFs, stay for the weird wild stories about #socialengineering and #malware

My latest book, Social Engineering (written with Sean Lawson) is now freely available in the Internet Archive, thanks to @textfiles

It's so wild seeing my book there. We relied heavily on the Internet Archive to do the research for the book. And we relied heavily on Jason Scott's http://textfiles.com/ for old BBS posts about phone phreaking.

Siderea,

Exactly.

Google Analytics is now a topic of conversation on the Baltimore Therapist listserv.

Your point about classism is well taken.

QUESTION: Am I correct in assuming that Google Analytics is likely to be harvesting client-side data and storing it? Asking for an educated guess as we might not know...

For the less-than-tech-saavy medical professionals and therapists in the room -- what log analyzers might they ask for when they speak to their marketing and IT teams about this issue?

Thanks,
Michael

My interpretation of this article is that hospitals, clinics, insurance companies, etc. need to get links and repost icons for Facebook, Twitter, etc. OFF their websites. If you work for a big institution -- talk to your marketing team as they are used to doing this routinely. If you are a small provider, look at your website -- especially if you created it years ago back when no one thought of the problems and you just wanted some traffic.

TITLE: FTC, HHS warn health providers not to use tracking tech in websites, apps

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) sent a joint letter to about 130 hospital systems and telehealth providers Thursday, warning of security risks posed by tracking technologies such as the Meta/Facebook Pixel and Google Analytics.

Die neue Podcast Folge ist raus. Ich spreche mit @evawolfangel über ihr spannendes Buch „Nur ein falscher Click“. Wir reden über #cyberkriminalitat, staatliches Hacking, #socialengineering, #zerotrust und mehr. Das Buch ist hervorragend und liest sich wie ein Krimi. Unbedingte Empfehlung! https://percepticon.de/landing-page/

Zum Ablauf des Scams, um ihn vielleicht in Zukunft bei anderen zu verhindern:

Eine Webseiten hat den Computer "aus Sicherheitsgründen" gesperrt. Und man wird aufgefordert eine deutsche Microsoft Support Hotline anzurufen
(Ich vermute dass das "nur" eine Webseite in Vollbild Modus war)

Der Support schaltet sich dann remote auf den Gerät auf (weiß nicht was sie da benutzt haben) und "repariert" das Problem.
Zur Freischaltung muss man aber Geld per Xbox Gutscheinen übermitteln (hier 400€)

Diese Übermittlung gibt dann erst Mal "schief" und man sollte es mit neuen Gutscheinen noch Mal probieren. Das Geld von den ersten Gutscheinen könnte man dann zurückfordern.
(Tipps wie (ob) man Xbox Gutscheine sperren kann sind willkommen)

Hier wurde der Betrug erkannt und kein weiteres Geld übermittelt. Der PC wurde dann wieder "freigegeben".

Der Rechner ist von Netz getrennt und aus. Technische Details weiß ich erst in den nächsten Tagen, wenn ich mit den Rechner angeschaut habe. Durch den remote Zugang können natürlich Daten gestohlen oder Schadenssoftware installiert worden sein

Ihr könntet jetzt natürlich spotten, dass ich mein Trauma, auf eine Phishing-E-Mail reingefallen zu sein, in einem Radiobeitrag verarbeite. Tatsächlich kam diese E-Mail aber mitten in der Recherche. Ich war also höchst "aware", wie die Branche der Awarenesstrainings sagt, und ich recherchiere seit Jahren über Cybersecurity.

Und trotzdem bin ich reingefallen. Glücklicherweise war es eine Test-Phishing-Email - was weitere Fragen und Probleme aufwirft:

(Periodic) hello #academics👋, a short #introduction. More info ➡️ https://lallodi.github.io

I am faculty at TU Eindhoven in NL 🇳🇱. I am interested in studying emergent #cyberthreats and attack innovation (from #malware to #socialEngineering), and how to integrate this into our defenses. I am the scientific director of the ESH-Security Operation Center (our own @TUEindhoven commercial #SOC, https://www.eindhovensecurityhub.nl supporting ed. & res.).

Looking forward to meeting you all! 🍻

Pirate Bing is quite a good social engineer - telling me all the time that this link is harmless :)

Ich brauche mal wieder eure Hilfe: Für ein Radio-Feature über Social Engineering suche ich

a) Wokshops, in denen Menschen live zum Thema geschult werden (also keine Videos/Online-Kurse)

b) Schulungen für #SocialEngineering Pentester:innen: Hier gibt es unter anderem auch Wettkämpfe - jedenfalls in den USA. Gibts das auch hier?

Mir geht es um O-Töne für meinen Beitrag - am liebsten würde ich an der ein oder anderen Schulung selbst teilnehmen, gerne auch an einem Wettbewerb.

#cybersecurity

Heute habe ich gelernt, dass #KI-Systeme wie #ChatGPT oder #Bing offenbar auch nicht vor #SocialEngineering-Attacken geschützt sind.

Das Ganze nennt sich "Prompt Injection Attack" und führt dazu, dass die Systeme ihre Grundkonfiguration herausgeben, wie sie sich zu verhalten haben.

Im Artikel ist eine Bilderstrecke: In der Praxis wirkt das überraschend plump.

I find it hard for my colleagues to understand #socialengineering so I was just looking at how Wikipedia explains it, and I found this fascinating entry on #SusanHeadley, who I hadn't heard of before.

"Susan Headley was an American hacker active during the late 1970s and early 1980s widely respected for her expertise in social engineering, pretexting, and psychological subversion. She was known for her specialty in breaking into military computer systems, which often involved going to bed with military personnel and going through their clothes for usernames and passwords while they slept. She became heavily involved in phreaking with Kevin Mitnick and Lewis de Payne in Los Angeles, but later framed them for erasing the system files at US Leasing after a falling out, leading to Mitnick's first conviction. She retired to professional poker."

I'm probably missing some... I'll edit that post later

@cspam@mastodon.cloud I've yet to understand why this term was astroturfed like this. From everything I've heard, Quiet Quitting originated from employer backed studies of employee behaviours. Studies that showed that employees exhibit a measurable change in behaviour in the weeks prior to handing in their notice.

This change in behaviour -- things like showing up late, leaving early, rescheduling meetings, reduced engagement in meetings, and reduced output -- was the Quiet Quit. It signaled that the employee had already decided to resign (i.e. had begun job hunting, or were in the process of interviewing for a new role), they just hadn't gotten around to doing so (which would be the Loud Quit).

Like, this wasn't a term plucked from the working class and twisted in an act of social engineering. This was floating around the capitalist back rooms, and surfaced to the rest of us with a new meaning, for reasons I can't quite grok. Like, is it just because the term had "quitting" in it, so they thought they could liken doing your damn job with quitting your damn job, and trick people in to sticking around longer? Couldn't they have come up with a better phrase for that? #Workers #Jobs #QuietQuitting #SocialEngineering

@thelinuxEXP i definitely understand your Point because once I had the same Thought about leaving Something behind completely. 😉

The worst Case, someone gets to your Account on #Twitter by #SocialEngineering and then really do damage to it.

But, that Threat can occur everywhere by some #Imposter, even with an owned Domain.

You are not more save or not if you keep the Account alive in hibernation. It's just another way of keeping a backdoor. 😏
