DDoS Botnet Aisuru Blankets US ISPs in Record DDoS (Krebs on Security)

Sécurité
The world’s largest and most disruptive botnet is now drawing a majority of its firepower from compromised Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices hosted on U.S. Internet providers like AT&T, Comcast and Verizon, new evidence suggests. Experts say the heavy concentration of infected devices at U.S. providers is complicating efforts to limit collateral damage from the botnet’s attacks, which shattered previous records this week with a brief traffic flood that clocked in at nearly 30 trillion bits of data per second. Since its debut more than a year ago, the Aisuru botnet has steadily outcompeted virtually all other IoT-based botnets in the wild, with recent attacks siphoning Internet bandwidth from an estimated 300,000 compromised hosts worldwide. The hacked systems that get subsumed into the botnet are mostly consumer-grade routers, security cameras, digital video…

"Threat actors are authenticating into multiple accounts rapidly across compromised devices," it said. "The speed and scale of these attacks imply that the attackers appear to control valid credentials rather than brute-forcing." A significant chunk of

Hackers Turn Velociraptor DFIR Tool Into Weapon in LockBit Ransomware Attacks

Actualités
Threat actors are abusing Velociraptor, an open-source digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) tool, in connection with ransomware attacks likely orchestrated by Storm-2603 (aka CL-CRI-1040 or Gold Salem), which is known for deploying the Warlock and LockBit ransomware. The threat actor's use of the security utility was documented by Sophos last month. It's assessed that the attackers
