Supply chain attack(供应链攻击)是指攻击者通过破坏或渗透软件开发、分发的流程,借此在软件的生命周期中植入恶意代码、后门或进行信息篡改。这类攻击的本质是通过软硬件或软件依赖关系链条中的薄弱环节,来达到攻击目标。由于现代软件开发经常依赖外部库、模块、服务等,供应链攻击尤其难以防御,具有很大的隐蔽性和危害。
Hardware attacks are more complex to investigate.Attackers who target hardware typically manipulate a handful of components or devices, not an entire batch. This means that unusual device activity may resemble an anomaly rather than a malicious act. The complexity of the supply chain itself ...
Look at the hardware implant as being a “toe hold” attack that then moves sideways to other motherboards via another “bug” that then in turn leverages another bug to bring in the attackware and spread it as a RAM only attack. To most people analysing the attack backwards they would b...
A supply-chain attack, also known as a value chain or third-party attack, occurs when cybercriminals gain unauthorized access to software, services, networks, or hardware from the suppliers in a supply chain. By attacking a supplier at the source, the cr
Hardware, software, services and people make up supply-chain risk — but the latter should be the guiding focus.
Over the past few years, we have seen a massive increase insoftware supply chain attacks. What is asupply chain attack? This is a type of cyber security attack where adversaries slip malicious code or components into a trusted piece of software or hardware.The goal of such an attack is the...
Any company that provides software or hardware to other organizations is a target for attackers. Even top security vendors,such as FireEye, Microsoft, and Malwarebytes, are not immune to supply chain attacks. However, there are ways to reduce the likelihood of an attack and reduce the damage to...
The Analysis of a Supply Chain Attack A supply chain attack typically involves several stages. First, the hacker identifies a vulnerable supplier or vendor in the company's supply chain. This may be a third-party provider of software, hardware, or other services that are used by the company....
Here is an example of a sophisticated supply chain attack: An attacker discovers large organizations using an open-source component built by a certain group of developers The attacker identifies a developer who is not actively working on the project, and compromises their GitHub account ...
