MITRE classifiesemail hiding rules(T1564.008) as a technique used for defense evasion. One APT known to use this technique is FIN4, a financially motivated threat actor that creates rules in victims' accounts to automatically delete emails containing words such as "hacked," "phish," and "malwar...
By default, OOXML files (.docx, .xlsx, .pptx) can’t be used to store macros. Only specific files with enabled-macro can be used to contain VBA macros. The goal is to make it easier to detect files that have macros and to reduce the risk of attacks that use macros. Files with ena...
MITRE ATT&CK is a systematic way of understanding and defending against cyber threats by identifying the methods and techniques that attackers use to gain access to systems and steal or damage data. The framework describes the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by cyber attackers....
Security teams use NDR to establish baselines of their networks' normal behavior. After this stage, analysts can see suspicious traffic patterns and triggered alerts. The technology is not only based on signatures, but behaviors as well, making it adaptive to changes in attack techniques so securit...
scroll down to see all theRequest Details. This section provides pertinent information for development and security teams alike, such as the deployment attacked, source IP, type of malware detected, etc. Notably, security teams can map the attack with the MITRE ATT&CK framework for further invest...
We’ll discuss both common and unusual evasion techniques – and practical means for enterprises to protect themselves. Start with the MITRE ATT&CK Framework TheMITRE ATT&CK frameworkis one of the best knowledge bases available, as it documents in detail how attackers behave and think. ...
Use of adaptive tools and accelerators, and alignment to frameworks such as MITRE Attack 4. Conduct testing on a regular basis to enable your organization’s responses to consider evolving threats Recognize that I-CRT is not a one-and-done activity. The cyber threat environment is changing incre...
After adversaries breach a system, they usually consider how they will maintain uninterrupted access through events such as system restarts...
See the Mitre Att&ck matrix. IOA detection methods aim to detect this activity as it's evolving. IOA Data is Monitored in Real-Time Because IOA data changes as an attacker progresses through the cyberattack lifecycle, the data needs to be monitored in real-time. IOA data could indicate ...
The MITRE framework is excellent for visibility across tactics and techniques, but no security vendor will map this framework 1:1. There’s no silver bullet to properly assess the efficacy of an endpoint security solution against all possible attack vectors, tactics, techniques and procedures. Each...
