Das #BSI warnt vor #Schadsoftware auf #IoT - Geräten - nur Schade, dass die Betroffenen wohl kaum die Pressemeldungen des BSI lesen 🧐🪲💾

Es ist eine Seuche, dass jedes IoT-Gerät heute zwangsläufig in der Cloud hängt (ob es Sinn macht oder nicht). Dadurch sind diese Geräte natürlich beliebte Angriffsziele, weil sie meist gar nicht geschützt sind und auch nie ein Update erhalten.

EUROJUST: Malware targeting millions of people taken down by international coalition

U.S. Department of Justice: U.S. Joins International Action Against RedLine and META Infostealers

Netherlands Police: Internationale opsporingsdiensten ontmantelen infostealers (Dutch language)

ESET Research: ESET Online Scanner for Redline and META

Multiple press releases about Redline and Meta information stealers were published today after a 24 hour tease (see parent toot above). The European Union Agency for Criminal Justice Cooperation (EUROJUST) states that international law enforcement from the Netherlands, United States, Belgium, Portugal, the United Kingdom, and Australia shut down three servers in the Netherlands, seized two domains, unsealed charges in the United States and took two people into custody in Belgium. The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) indicted Maxim Rudometov, one of the developers and administrators of RedLine Infostealer. "According to the complaint, Rudometov regularly accessed and managed the infrastructure of RedLine Infostealer, was associated with various cryptocurrency accounts used to receive and launder payments and was in possession of RedLine malware." The operation spun off of a tip from ESET last year that malware servers were hosted in the Netherlands. The Dutch press release mentions that a search and seizure was carried out at an infostealer customer's home, and multiple Telegram accounts advertising the infostealers were taken offline. ESET provides a free scanner to detect Redline or Meta infostealers. They provide useful instructions beyond running the scanner.

U.S. #Wiretap Systems Targeted in #China - Linked #Hack

The #surveillance systems believed to be at issue are used to cooperate with requests for domestic information related to criminal and national security investigations. Under federal law, telecommunications and broadband companies must allow authorities to intercept electronic information pursuant to a court order. It couldn’t be determined if systems that support foreign #intelligence surveillance were also vulnerable in the breach.

Like all backdoors, this #backdoor is also a #security risk and not a gain.

#CSAM Regulation Update: Dutch #Intelligence agency weighs in

The resulting situation is regarded by #AIVD as too large a risk for our #digital #resilience. (…) Applying detection orders to providers of end-to-end encrypted communications entails too large a #security risk for our digital resilience.

It’s a battle for individuals and smaller companies just as much as it is for big organisations; as the digital space is expanding and as #AI is impacting our everyday lives, hackers are getting more inventive every day. And, if you’re not convinced that cybercrime is going to be an issue in your life, the statistics below will change your mind.

With the security quality of our software, the internet is only running because it is more profitable for cybercriminals to keep the internet running for ramsonware attacks.

Ukraine bans #Telegram on #military, govt devices over #security risks

source: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/ukraine-bans-telegram-on-military-govt-devices-over-security-risks/

Ukrainian officials representing the country's Security Service and the General Staff of the Armed Forces also warned that #Russia "actively" uses Telegram for cyberattacks, #phishing, #malware distribution, and coordinating #missile strikes.

This is not a revolutionary realization. It would be interesting to know whether the Russian secret service has also infiltrated servers in order to expose users and monitor them specifically.
