ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet

Les vols de données ont explosé en 2014, selon le Breaches Level Index. La faute à un modèle de protection dépassé face aux nouveaux modes d’attaque, selon Gemalto.

L’année 2014 s’illustrera comme une année record en matière d’infractions informatiques. Plus d’un milliard (1,023 précisément) de données ont été perdues ou volées au cours de l’année passée. Sont considérées comme données les informations propres à l’identité personnelle ou bancaire ainsi que les identifiants d’accès.

For more than a decade, a sophisticated group known as Regin has targeted high-profile entities around the world with an advanced malware platform. As far as we can tell, the operation is still active, although the malware may have been upgraded to more sophisticated versions. The most recent sample we've seen was from a 64-bit infection. This infection was still active in the spring of 2014.

The name Regin is apparently a reversed "In Reg", short for "In Registry", as the malware can store its modules in the registry. This name and detections first appeared in anti-malware products around March 2011.

From some points of view, the platform reminds us of another sophisticated malware: Turla. Some similarities include the use of virtual file systems and the deployment of communication drones to bridge networks together. Yet through their implementation, coding methods, plugins, hiding techniques and flexibility, Regin surpasses Turla as one of the most sophisticated attack platforms we have ever analysed.

The recent shutdown of SilkRoad 2.0 was just a small part of the events affecting the Tor network that unfolded last week.

Cybercrime, just like any other illegal activity, is hard to eradicate completely. Whenever illegal services are taken down, the gap created will always be filled by other criminals willing to profit from the opportunity. The reality we have to accept is that there will always be demand for such services.

Moskau/lngolstadt, 17. Februar 2015 Kaspersky Lab enttarnt die Cyberspionagegruppe „Desert Falcons“, die sich gegen verschiedene hochrangige Organisationen und Einzelpersonen im Nahen Osten richtet [1]. Damit konnten die IT-Sicherheitsexperten erstmals eine Gruppe von Cybersöldnern aus dem arabischen Raum enttarnen, die offenbar über das komplette Spektrum von Cyberspionagemitteln verfügt.

Die Gruppe startete ihre Aktivitäten bereits im Jahr 2011, seit dem Jahr 2013 werden Rechner infiziert. Den Experten von Kaspersky Lab zufolge erreichte die Kampagne ihren Höhepunkt zu Beginn des Jahres 2015 [2].

Noch einmal blicken wir zurück: Diesmal auf die größten Datendiebstähle des vergangenen Jahres – von Target und Home Depot über JP Morgan und Barclays Bank bis zu Orange und Dropbox.
