The strategy set of the defenders can be interpreted as the assignments of (protecting) resources to potential targets. The goal is to minimize the damage. The attacker observes the defenders' randomized strategies (resources deployment), and choose a target to attack in a way that maximize the...
Unlike other types of cybercriminals, who exploit a vulnerability and move on, nation-state attackers are persistent and determined to achieve their objectives. They invest serious time profiling their targets and probing their network for vulnerabilities and are continually adding more tool...
millions of users, doesn't matter. Attackers usemass scanningtechniques to find and compromise easy targets no matter how small, because its ultimatelyyour usersthat they are after. Breaking your security can help compromise more prominent targets - you might just be theweakest link in the chain...
Simplified attacker workflow. Attackers find bugs, triage them to determine exploitability, then develop exploits and deploy them to their targets. Credits: Hu, Hu & Dolan-Gavitt. Researchers at New York University have recently devised a new cyber defense technique, which works by adding so-calle...
The six-month study saw over 72 percent of cloud tenants being targeted at least once by attackers, while 40 percent had at least one compromised account within their system. Even more concerning, 15 out of every 10,...
Unsurprisingly, then, in the ICS2 Cybersecurity Workforce Study 2023, 23 percent of respondents said that their security team had a skills gap around threat intelligence analysis, which includes monitoring malicious actor communications. Effectively monitoring threat actor communications means that organiza...
such as the Olympics, the 2014 G20 Summit, and major national elections. In the wake of the recent breaches of major retailers, the CrowdStrike team also discusses the evolution of cyber criminals, who are beginning to develop capabilities to identify and breach specific targets in pursuit of ...
systems, home routers, and other programmable, interconnected devices are among some of the things that could be exposed and targeted by attackers—given that they have an Internet facing component. Because very little security is implemented in these devices, they make for perfect targets of ...
