To improve cybersecurity readiness, the U.S. Navy launched its first cybersecurity strategy.
The 14-page Navy cyber strategy outlined cybersecurity as a core competency in modern warfare and highlighted the importance of protecting the information environment.
The Lazarus group is using two new remote access trojans to target health systems’ ManageEngine vulnerabilities.
The group recently made headlines after targeting healthcare entities in Europe and the US and has since evolved its malware to exploit the CVE-2022047966 vulnerability in the ManageEngine setup, allowing for remote code execution.
Its new RAT variants, QuiteRAT and CollectionRAT, allow for the attacker to run arbitrary commands, among other capabilities.
The healthcare sector is coming under increasingly severe pressure from cyber-attacks. On the heels of news earlier last week that the infamous Lazarus Group is launching a new campaign targeting internet backbone infrastructure and healthcare facilities in the US and Europe comes news of a major attack by the Rhysida ransomware group on Los Angeles-based Prospect Medical Holdings.
On Tuesday (August 22), the FBI announced that cybercrime groups directly linked to the North Korean government had stolen $40 million worth of cryptocurrency in a single day. The heist is said to be the work of TraderTraitor-affiliated actors (also known as Lazarus Group and APT38).
