Best Security Practices to Protect Your Organization.
According to the FBI, cyber-attacks are up 400% since the 2020. Even more concerning is that an increasing number of these attacks are being perpetrated by nation-states, state-sponsored actors, and organized crime syndicates. These groups have the knowledge, resources, and tools to carry out sophisticated and coordinated attacks that take advantage of weaknesses in systems and processes to compromise high-value assets and data, and disrupt business operations.
Many of these attacks exploit critical vulnerabilities that affect a large majority of businesses and organizations. Some examples of high severity vulnerabilities which attackers have frequently leveraged include:
- Microsoft Exchange On-Premises (AKA “HAFNIUM”): Remote attackers gained access to hundreds of thousands of Exchange servers worldwide, including data and full system control, via a series of zero-day vulnerabilities.
- Active Directory Domain Controller (AKA “ZEROLOGON”): Allows domain-joined computers to gain administrative privileges through basic tools such as PowerShell.
- SolarWinds Orion (AKA “Sunburst” and “Supernova”): Attack on software-supply chain left armed, fully-patched systems with command-and-control malware.
- VMware vCenter: Network-based web attack allows attackers to gain system-level access using basic tools.
This is just a small sample of some of the most critical vulnerabilities attackers have recently used to compromise banks, federal information processing systems, and mid-size enterprises. And it’s not just self-hosted systems that are under attack. Cloud-based systems, such as Microsoft Office 365, Azure, and Google face increasing threats to their infrastructure and applications.
