Zack WhittakerFor TechCrunch, I wrote about Unit 221B, a cybersecurity company that's recently made a name for itself by tracking today's top English-speaking hacking groups, including Scattered Spider, and helping to disrupt their operations. Now the company has raised $5 million to focus on the threat.
Brian ClarkZensec has a good article on the Akira ransomware group's tactics taken directly from their DFIR experience on 16+ incidents. A few key take-aways:
- Initial Access: Please, please please patch your Internet-facing VPN and firewall devices including your Sonicwall, Cisco ASA and Watchguard devices.
- Patch our Veeam software. They used vulnerable Veeam installs to perform privilege escalation
- Block access to Anydesk.com and remotedesktop.google.com if you don't use those services

NEW: When “Goodbye” isn’t the end: Scattered LAPSUS$ Hunters hack on
Others seem to have interpreted their "goodbye" message differently than I had. Were they lying or did people just not understand a significant statement in their message?
And while headlines focus on them hitting a bank, I think we need to take a closer look at their attacks on the aviation sector.

For privacy researchers, this thread is interesting. iOS allow apps to make network requests after push notifications.
Instagram (and others) appear to be using this to profile devices, eg retrieve device uptime without their customer opening Instagram.
This one probably needs more eyes on it. https://mastodon.social/@mysk/115204746326765802
