Owing to the globally distributed electronics supply chain, security has emerged as a serious concern. In this article, we explore electronics computer-aided design (CAD) software as a threat vector that can be exploited to introduce vulnerabilities into the SoC. We show that all electronics CAD ...
One continually evolving attack vector for nefarious actors is the software supply chain, particularly within open source software package solutions and repositories. Many of these exploits are not sophisticated, but they are particularly potent due to their ease of execution, potential wide impa...
: The company's "TeamCity" software development servers contained vulnerabilities that were exploited, allowing attackers full control over all of the server's projects, builds, agents, and artifacts. Thus, this became a suitable vector to position an attacker to perform a supply chain attack....
One of the important topics covered in theCrowdStrike® 2018 Global Threat Reportis the increase in supply chain attacks in 2017. This topic was also highlighted in arecent webcast featuringCrowdStrike VP of Intelligence Adam Meyers, who joined with CTO Dmitri Alperovitch to offer an in...
and software. These connections are known as the supply chain. It can be long and convoluted and has become a favoured attack vector for cybercriminals. In many cases, a company has its own supply chain while simultaneously being part of the supply chain for other, probably larger, businesses...
“I wouldn’t be surprised at all if we see another supply chain attack from this group,” O’Brien said. “I think that the reach this group has gotten through the supply chain attacks is a cause for concern.” As a result, organizations ...
because their stock would take a substantial hit despite it being an obvious attack vector to anyone with half a brain. The amount of counterfeit gear flooding the US market is almost impossible to stem, and some of them are so good they often can’t be detected by visual inspection. ...
Hackers have targeted software's supply chain in three high profile attacks discovered over the summer.
Software supply chain attacks are typically carried out by highly skilled state actors, often associated with advanced persistent threat (APT) campaigns. Due to the stealthy and trusted nature of this attack vector, software supply chain attacks are extremely difficult to detect. They can cause ...
Log4Shell and now XZ Utils underscoring the potentially devastating impact of these security breaches. The latter examples of Open Source Software (OSS) attacks are a growing attack vector. Capterra’s research reveals thatsoftware supply-chain attacks impacted almost two-thirds (61%) of all U.S...
