School Safety Frenzy

Florida is ramping up measures to counteract a surge of threats and violence in K-12 schools. With the return of metal detectors and public shaming of students making threats, the state is pulling out all the stops to protect its children. Is this the right approach, or do these methods go too far? How should schools balance student safety with a healthy learning environment? Share your thoughts.

Leveraging TCP RST Packets: A Novel Method for Network Security

In the realm of network security, a novel method using TCP RST packets to counteract malicious traffic is proposed. This approach involves a pseudo IDPS device that detects threats through analyzing TCP/UDP payloads, headers, and IP signatures. Operating

Introduction In the ever-evolving landscape of network security, the ability to quickly and effectively mitigate threats is paramount. Traditional intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS) are essential tools, but there remains a need for innovative solutions that can act as an intermediary step in threat detection and prevention. This article explores a novel approach: utilizing TCP RST…

https://bit.ly/3IGH6KB - 🔍 Mandiant has identified a new operational technology (OT) malware dubbed COSMICENERGY, which was uploaded to a public malware scanning utility in December 2021 from Russia. The malware aims to disrupt electric power by interacting with IEC 60870-5-104 devices like remote terminal units, commonly used in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia's electric transmission and distribution operations. #CyberSecurity #Malware #COSMICENERGY 🛠️ COSMICENERGY's capabilities are similar to those used in previous incidents, such as the INDUSTROYER malware. Interestingly, a contractor may have developed COSMICENERGY as a red teaming tool for simulated power disruption exercises hosted by Rostelecom-Solar, a Russian cybersecurity company. Such development signifies a lowered entry barrier for developing offensive OT capabilities. #CyberThreats #RedTeaming #RostelecomSolar ⚡ The attack strategy and capabilities of COSMICENERGY are reminiscent of the 2016 INDUSTROYER incident. It utilizes two components, PIEHOP and LIGHTWORK, to interact with RTUs, affecting the actuation of power line switches and circuit breakers, causing power disruption. However, COSMICENERGY lacks discovery capabilities, implying a need for internal reconnaissance to obtain environment information for a successful attack. #CyberAttack #PIEHOP #LIGHTWORK 🔎 COSMICENERGY could be associated with Russian government-funded power disruption and emergency response exercises, as the code sample refers to a project named “Solar Polygon,” developed by Rostelecom-Solar. However, the lack of concrete evidence leaves the actual purpose of COSMICENERGY uncertain. #RussianCyberSecurity #SolarPolygon 🔁 COSMICENERGY shares similarities with previous OT malware like INDUSTROYER, IRONGATE, TRITON, and INCONTROLLER. With open-source libraries and Python for malware development becoming more commonplace, such trends may manifest in future OT malware. #OTMalware #OpenSource #Python 🛡️ While COSMICENERGY's capabilities aren't notably different from previous OT malware, its discovery is significant. It presents an immediate threat to affected organizations and highlights a lowering of barriers to entry for offensive OT threat activity. Therefore, it is crucial for OT defenders and asset owners to take preventive action against COSMICENERGY to preempt possible deployment.

Threat Modeling: What is it? 🧐

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, security has become a paramount concern for organizations. Cyber threats and attacks are constantly on the rise, targeting sensitive data, systems, and infrastructure. To effectively combat these threats, organizations employ various security measures, one of which is threat modeling. Threat modeling is a proactive approach that helps organizations identify potential vulnerabilities and risks in their systems, allowing them to prioritize security efforts and develop effective countermeasures.

🔍 Let's delve deeper into what threat modeling entails and its benefits for organizations!

Īfter preparing the cables and the workstation, plug the unit into an electrical outlet and watch the firewall boot up. If you use PuTTY, it should come with the appropriate configuration if connection type is set to Serial. When using a console cable, set the terminal emulator to 9600baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, parity none, VT100. When using the management port, the workstation you'll be using must be reconfigured so its network interface has an IP address in the 192.168.1.0/24 IP range, as the default IP of the management port will be 192.168.1.1. The two methods available to connect to the new device is either using a network cable on the management port or an ethernet-to-db-9 console cable. The first thing you'll want to configure is the management IP address, which makes it easier to continue setting up your new device later on.
