Just in time for the holidays: #StateoftheHack swag 🖱️👕

You'll never look better enabling those macros. #DailyWoolDrop 😉
customink.com/fundraising/st…
Most recent order: 3 shirts 👕
with the anonymous message: “Just in time to gift one to Hass, Jimbo, and Oleg, your comrade Andy.” 😂
#FIN7 / Combi Security shirt order extended until tomorrow, #CyberMonday2019: customink.com/fundraising/st… Final cutoff.
All of our new Combi Security “employees” should be receiving their on-boarding packages soon!
There is simply no better shirt to wear to your local payment card-processing establishment! #FIN7 🍟🏨🎰🏪🏦 Image
The long sleeve was a good choice in case my jail cell gets cold. Image
So... I guess I should probably let @customink know that I don’t *actually* work at #FIN7’s front company. Image

I understand there’s renewed interest in operational timelines re:SolarWinds supply chain compromise attackers

Was proud to publish this one within a week of staying up overnight & discovering how the attackers were persisting with backdoored applications.

Many other methods… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
The value of our (+@cglyer) real-time attacker technique collaboration with absolute beasts in the industry @doughsec 😶‍🌫️, @penninajx + @srunnels 💻 cannot be overstated bringing together puzzle pieces for the RE wizards on each side

While Mandia conferred with the government, Charles Carmakal, the CTO of Mandiant Consulting, contacted some old friends. Many of the hackers’ tactics were unfamiliar, and he wanted to see whether two former Mandiant… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

We've been tracking DEV-0537 since 2021 (overlaps: Lapsus$, UNC3661). Here's a comprehensive 🆕 BLOG 📰 covering observed TTPs: microsoft.com/security/blog/…

#MSTIC and Defender threat intel collab
➕#DART 👻 incident response team experience from the trenches [1/3]
The blog highlights varied initial access vectors and a slew of [inconsistent?] end goals: data theft, extortion, chaos...

One way to interpret "this actor's TTPs and infrastructure are constantly changing" is that they are loosely-organized (see: ) [2/3]
DEV-0537 / Lapsus$ shows that 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘦𝘳𝘴 can be creative opportunists and still be successful.
Luckily, the same goes for 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴.
Use this opportunity to strengthen your security controls to protect far beyond this threat actor [3/3] microsoft.com/security/blog/…

So you want to talk about the massive software supply chain intrusion & the most carefully-planned, complex espionage I’ve ever helped uncover?

Start here: fireeye.com/blog/threat-re… 🤩

But then what?? Let’s talk about some post-compromise techniques...
Please read the above blog to appreciate multiple backdoors used, careful & unique tradecraft used on-premise...

We just published more details on what we’ve been finding post-compromise: blogs.microsoft.com/on-the-issues/…
ADFS key material compromise, SAML shenanigans, OAuth keys added...
Within the technical companion blog (msrc-blog.microsoft.com/2020/12/13/cus…) we provide some late stage killchain activity observed many places.

I want to highlight the additional detections pushed to cover these techniques in @MSAzureSentinel (but anyone can use on the UAL for #DFIR) ...

Added #STRONTIUM election-related credential harvesting campaign "detection" to #AzureSentinel: github.com/Azure/Azure-Se…

Yes - it's hardcoded for netblocks released in the #MSTIC report (microsoft.com/security/blog/…)
This is just extra coverage on top of existing cred harvesting logic
That said, the logic posted there finds some high fidelity #STRONTIUM campaigns from at least June through... recently (more details in above blog).

You'll see a User-Agent, first/last attempt, # of total attempts, # of unique IPs & unique accounts attempted + a list of accounts
As shipped, it's looking over the past 30 days. But if you have #AzureSentinel, I recommend pasting that same KQL in & searchings logs w/ expanded timeframe.
The # authAttempts can stay where it's at ... #STRONTIUM activity is approx 100 attempts per IP per account

Pokéregex Challenge:
How many of the 719 Pokémon can you capture in a single regular expression that fits in a tweet?

Here's what to match: gist.githubusercontent.com/itsreallynick/…

Here are awesome regex resources: raw.githubusercontent.com/aloisdg/awesom… [this same text blob will also be used to measure FPs😊]
If you haven't done something like this before, here's a [crappy] bash one-liner to start:

sh -c 'pattern="your|regex"; echo 🎯 Pokémon:; curl -s gist.githubusercontent.com/itsreallynick/… | grep -ioE $pattern | wc -l; echo 🚯 Noise:; curl -s github.com/aloisdg/awesom… | grep -ioE $pattern | wc -l'
Oh, if it wasn't clear ... you put your regular expression in where it says "your|regex"

Because, as written, the results are pretty terrible 😄 [pictured]

This is similar to an interview question @TekDefense & I would ask @ Mandiant.
It's also an #APT32 hunting tweet. 😉🌶️ This is probably a terrible...

I started playing Pokémon Go with my kids at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

I can’t believe how many #infosec Pokémon we’ve caught so far.

Here’s a quick thread – please add since I’m missing many.

First up: I definitely appreciate that they included #FIN7 in this game Image
That last one was much harder to capture than these Iranian TTP Pokémon. ImageImage
This #infosec Pokémon is an absolute thug. It’s fun every year & a new one is appearing soon #flareon7 Image
