Evolution of SamSa Malware Suggests New Ransomware Tactics In Play
Ransomware is often in the headlines as new families are discovered on an almost weekly basis. Historically, these families have shared one similarity – they have all been deployed by attackers casting a wide net and largely being victim-agnostic. In most cases, the adversaries have used phishing emails and exploit kits in a ‘spray and pray’ style tactic. However, in recent months, a new trend seems to be emerging: targeted attacks where ransomware is deployed by threat actors after successfully gaining unauthorized access to an organization’s network. One malware family …

Campaign Evolution: Darkleech to Pseudo-Darkleech and Beyond
In 2015, Sucuri published two blog posts, one in March describing a pseudo-Darkleech campaign targeting WordPress sites, and another about its evolution the following December. Sites compromised by this campaign redirected unsuspecting users to an exploit kit (EK). The Sucuri posts describe patterns in the injected script related to this campaign. Since December 2015, patterns associated with pseudo-Darkleech have continued to evolve. Our blog post today will examine these changes. However, before we look at the recent developments, we should understand how EKs fit into the overall picture and review …

Architecture Matters
Every year, record levels of money are spent on new IT security technology – yet major breaches and compromises are more prevalent than ever. The concept of “layered security” – in which an organization supports a wide variety of security technologies in order to discourage attackers – doesn’t seem to be working. It’s time to rethink IT security – not just the technology, but the way it’s approached from a strategic, architectural perspective.
How to duplicate settings among multiple templates

Lessons from Cyber Storm V
Two weeks ago, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) conducted a national-level exercise, Cyber Storm V, designed to test the nation’s Emergency Preparedness procedures. Palo Alto Networks participated by providing cybersecurity expertise during the planning process and as players by using the exercise to test our own internal cyber incident crisis management plan. The players, located across the United States and around world, cut across multiple sectors and spanned numerous industries, provided real-time input in order to test our ability to combat cybersecurity threats. The game’s diabolical scenario tested …

Achieving Continuous Protection with Highly Available Next-Generation Firewall Deployments
Network outages and cyberattacks cause unplanned downtime. And most organizations are seeing dramatic growth both in data center traffic and the use of web-scale ready applications. These trends have resulted in an increased density of business-critical workloads driving requirements for high availability network designs that can handle workload mobility and business continuity. To ensure highly available and continuous protection of network infrastructures, Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Security Platform supports active/passive and active/active high availability deployment modes. Active/passive high availability remains the most commonly deployed method of stateful failover for three …

Locky Ransomware Installed Through Nuclear EK
In February 2016, Unit 42 published detailed analysis of Locky ransomware. We certainly weren’t the only ones who saw this malware, and many others have also reported on it. Since that time, Locky has been frequently noted in various campaigns using malicious spam (malspam) to spread this relatively new strain of ransomware. When we initially reported on Locky, attackers were distributing the malware using Microsoft Office documents with malicious macros to download and execute the ransomware. Attackers quickly added another tactic, sending e-mails with zip attachments containing malicious Javascript files …

Lage der IT-Sicherheit in Deutschland
Der „Bericht zur Lage der IT-Sicherheit in Deutschland 2015“, den das Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI) 2015 vorgestellt hat, weist darauf hin, dass viele Unternehmen das Patch-Management vernachlässigen – sowohl für Standard-Software als auch für die Steuerungssysteme von Industrieanlagen. Für Greg Day, Palo Alto Networks, ist es aber zu einfach hier den Unternehmen den Schwarzen Peter zuzuschieben.

Locky: New Ransomware Mimics Dridex-Style Distribution
Ransomware persists as one of the top crimeware threats thus far into 2016. While the use of document-based macros for ransomware distribution remains relatively uncommon, a new family calling itself “Locky” has borrowed the technique from the eminently successful Dridex to maximize its target base. We first learned of Locky through Invincea and expanded on qualifying this threat with the help of PhishMe. Locky has also gained enough traction to find its way onto Dynamoo’s Blog and Reddit. Using Palo Alto Networks AutoFocus, Unit 42 observed over 400,000 individual sessions …

Apple OS target of another malware campaign in China
A new malware strain, AceDeceiver, that exploits a flaw in Apple's DRM software to target iOS devices through Windows PCs, has been detected by researchers at Palo Alto Networks
Hack Brief: No Need to Freak Out Over That Chinese iPhone Malware
THE SECURITY TRACK record of Apple’s locked-down mobile operating system has been so spotless that any hairline fracture in its protections makes headlines. So when security researchers revealed that a new flavor of malware known as AceDeceiver had found its way onto as many as 6.6 million Chinese iPhones, the news was covered like a kind of smartphone bird flu, originating in Asia but bound to infect the globe. But for iPhone owners, the lesson is an old one: Don’t go to extraordinary lengths to install sketchy pirated apps on your phone, and you should be fine.
New Apple iPhone Malware Exploits DRM Mechanism To Spread
A new family of Apple iOS malware that has begun affecting users in China is another reminder of why it is generally not a good idea to jailbreak your iPhone or to download pirated software from unofficial mobile app stores.
