Every Organization globally experienced a Mobile Malware Attack during the past year: Mobile Security Report 2021

The move to mass remote working during the COVID-19 pandemic saw the mobile attack surface expand dramatically, resulting in 97% of organizations facing mobile threats from several attack vectors. With 60% of workers forecast to be mobile by 2024, mobile security needs to be a priority for all organizations. Highlights of the Check Point Research Mobile Security Report 2021 include:

 

All enterprises at risk from mobile attacks: Almost every organization experienced at least one mobile malware attack in 2020. Ninety three percent of these attacks originated in a device network, which attempts to trick users into installing a malicious payload via infected websites or URLs or to steal users’ credentials.

 

Nearly half of organizations impacted by malicious mobile apps: Forty six percent of organizations had at least one employee download a malicious mobile application that threatened their organization’s networks and data in 2020.

Can your organization obtain reasonable cybersecurity? Yes, and here’s how

Cybersecurity expectations are vague, and that has to change if there is any chance of approaching a reasonable amount of cybersecurity.

An IT axiom, “Do you know where your data is?” has been eclipsed by something more accountable: “Is your data reasonably secure?” That’s what companies have to determine to protect themselves in the event of a cybersecurity attack.

“With data breaches making daily headlines and hackers developing innovative methods to penetrate cyber defenses, businesses must contemplate what ‘reasonable-security’ posture to implement for when—not if—a threat occurs,” said Rick Lazio, former member of the US House of Representatives and senior vice president of Alliantgroup, and Mike Davis, CISO of Alliantgroup, in their article Cybersecurity Risk: What does a ‘reasonable’ posture entail and who says so? in CIO Dive.

Laws are in place, but …

Lazio and Davis said lawmakers and regulators are responding to the escalating number of cyberattacks by requiring businesses to meet certain cybersecurity standards to achieve reasonable security. However, “Without a defined, coherent standard to use as a reference, companies are left wandering in the wilderness when it comes to compliance with these often ambiguous laws and regulations.”

Since cybersecurity and its regulation are moving targets, companies tend to copy what other organizations are doing to secure digital assets, hoping it will be seen as good enough. Lazio and Davis have real concerns about this approach, adding, “With data-breach litigation increasing, this practice is nothing short of risky as businesses are allowing a judge or jury to determine the reasonableness of its cybersecurity risk posture after an incident has occurred.”

How ghost accounts could leave your organization vulnerable to ransomware

Active accounts for people who have left your organization are ripe for exploitation, according to Sophos.

Cybercriminals can choose a variety of ways to infiltrate and compromise an organization as a prelude to ransomware. One tried and true method is to exploit an admin account. And if it’s an account that’s no longer being used by an employee but is still available, so much the better. A report released Tuesday by security provider Sophos explains how one of its customers was hit by ransomware due to a ghost account.

The attack

An unidentified Sophos customer contacted the company after a ransomware attack affected more than 100 of its systems. Using the Nefilim (aka Nemty) ransomware, the attackers had compromised a high-level admin account a month before the actual attack, according to the Sophos Rapid Response team.

After gaining access to the account, the attackers spent the month poking around the network where they ended up stealing the credentials for a domain admin account. Upon finding the files they could hold as hostage, they were able to exfiltrate hundreds of gigabytes of data and then carry out the attack.

“Ransomware is the final payload in a longer attack,” Peter Mackenzie, manager for Sophos Rapid Response, said in the report. “It is the attacker telling you they already have control of your network and have finished the bulk of the attack. It is the attacker declaring victory.”

Sophos said that the Rapid Response team knew that criminals who use the Nefilim ransomware typically gain network access through vulnerable versions of Citrix or Microsoft’s Remote Desktop Protocol. In this case, the attackers exploited Citrix software to compromise the admin account and then used the Mimikatz password extraction tool to steal the credentials for the domain admin account.

But the real point of the story lies in the…
