Bleeping Computer: U.S. and international cybersecurity authorities said in a joint LockBit ransomware advisory that the gang successfully extorted roughly $91 million following approximately 1,700 attacks against U.S. organizations since 2020.
CNBC: China’s cyber-espionage and sabotage capacities are an “epoch-defining threat,” the top U.S. cybersecurity official said, warning that in the event of open warfare “aggressive cyber operations” would threaten critical U.S. transportation infrastructure “to induce societal panic.”
IT World Canada: It can take Canadian organizations up to 48 days to detect and recover from a cyber attack, according to a new survey of infosec professionals.
BNN Bloomberg: Demand for cybersecurity remains front and centre for companies looking to keep up in the tech era, which is why one analyst says she is bullish on stocks within the sector.
The Target: Neho, a Swiss-based online real estate agency.
The Take: Exposure of sensitive login credentials to Neho’s systems, potentially allowing attackers full access to databases, source-code, configuration profiles and more.
The Vector: A misconfiguration on Neho’s website exposed login credentials to their systems to the public, allowing anyone with internet access who obtained these credentials to login as an authenticated Neho user.
This breach is a critical reminder of how important access control is for overall cybersecurity. If an attacker obtains access to vetted credentials, they can pivot their movements into possibly every system belonging to the firm, making the attack an order of magnitude more deadly. Safe and secure storage of login credentials is essential to protecting a firm and their customers.
Forbes: As automation increases, so does the extent of systematic cyber risk. Cybersecurity measures are thus prudent since it is only by looking through the lens of the hacker can one avail a progressive insight as to the best means of securing and protecting data.
SecurityWeek: A decentralized cryptocurrency wallet service with roughly five million users, Atomic is available on all major operating systems, including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.
Plan Adviser: Commenters replying to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s three cybersecurity proposals requested additional flexibility and two years to comply with anything the regulator adopts, based on responses submitted through the deadline.
PR Newswire: Demand for cybersecurity talent continues to outpace supply, according to the latest data from CyberSeek, the joint initiative of the National Institute of Standards and Technology's (NIST) NICE program, Lightcast and CompTIA.
CSO: Microsoft revealed on May 24 that the Chinese threat group Volt Typhoon attempted to gain access to communications systems in the United States, including Navy infrastructure on Guam.
