[..] Many of the attacks aimed at the target’s network infrastructure (network and transport layers L3/4) exceeded two billion packets per second (pps) and three terabits per second (Tbps).

Risks, techniques, and mitigations in hardware hacking ∗∗∗ --------------------------------------------- DMA allows input-output (I/O) devices to access memory without CPU involvement. Bypassing the Operating System (OS) by providing direct high-speed access to the system’s memory improves efficiency for Graphics processing units (GPUs), Network Interface Cards (NICs), storage devices (e.g. NVMe) and peripheral devices. DMA capable connections include PCI, PCI Express (PCIe), Thunderbolt, FireWire, ExpressCard. Without additional safeguards, DMA can make systems vulnerable to attacks. --------------------------------------------- https://www.pentestpartners.com/security-blog/direct-memory-access-dma-atta… ∗∗∗ Unraveling Sparkling Pisces’s Tool Set: KLogEXE and FPSpy ∗∗∗ --------------------------------------------- We analyze new tools DPRK-linked APT Sparkling Pisces (aka Kimsuky) used in cyberespionage campaigns: KLogExe (a keylogger) and FPSpy (a backdoor variant). --------------------------------------------- https://unit42.paloaltonetworks.com/kimsuky-new-keylogger-backdoor-variant/ ∗∗∗ Simple Mail Transfer Pirates: How threat actors are abusing third-party infrastructure to send spam ∗∗∗ --------------------------------------------- Spammers are always looking for creative ways to bypass spam filters. As a spammer, one of the problems with creating your own architecture to deliver mail is that, once the spam starts flowing, these sources (IPs/domains) can be blocked. Spam can more easily find its way into the inbox if it is delivered from an unexpected or legitimate source. Realizing this, many spammers have elected to attack web pages and mail servers of legitimate organizations, so they may use these “pirated” resources to send unsolicited email. --------------------------------------------- https://blog.talosintelligence.com/simple-mail-transfer-pirates/ ∗∗∗ Phishing and Social Engineering: The Human Factor in Election Security ∗∗∗ --------------------------------------------- Discover how phishing and social engineering threaten the 2024 U.S. elections in part three of our Election Cybersecurity series.
