Bahrain says Iranian hackers hit government website Bahrain's authorities said late Saturday that Iranian hackers hit a government website. In retaliation, the Bahrain Chamber for Commerce and Industry is urging a boycott of Iranian goods, The Associated Press reported. According to the government Bahrain News Agency, Iranian computer hackers tried to access the official website of the Housing Ministry in attempts to seek data on aid recipients. But the agency gave no further details, although the hacking could be conceivably linked to Shiite allegations that a disproportionate share of housing aid goes to Sunnis. To retaliate, the Bahrain Chamber for Commerce and Industry called for a countrywide boycott of all Iranian goods and services because of "blatant interference in Bahrain's domestic affairs and threats to the kingdom's national security." The chamber also appealed for other nations in the six-member Gulf Cooperation Council to join the proposed embargo. "It will

#Anonymous attacks Iranian state websites The infamous Anonymous hacking group has crippled a string of Iranian state websites including those of the Office of the Supreme Leader, state police and the Islamic Revolutionary Guards in attacks launched yesterday. The coordinated Distributed Denial of Service attacks were launched at 5am GMT and targeted more than a dozen Iranian Government sites under the so-called Operation Iran. Anonymous had timed the attacks to coincide with International Workers' Day, commemorating the first nation-wide general strike in the US, which took place on May 1 in 1886. "OpIran attacks the governmental websites responsible for oppressing freedom of speech, information or ideas," the group wrote in a statement explaining the reasons for the attacks. The website of the Office of the Supreme Leader, Sayyid Ali Khamenei, was taken offline about an hour after attacks according to the groups' hit list but had been reinstated at the ti

The  ransomware industry surged in 2023  as it saw an alarming 55.5% increase in victims worldwide, reaching a staggering 5,070.  But 2024 is starting off showing a very different picture.  While the numbers skyrocketed in Q4 2023 with 1309 cases, in Q1 2024, the ransomware industry was down to 1,048 cases. This is a 22% decrease in ransomware attacks compared to Q4 2023. Figure 1: Victims per quarter There could be several reasons for this significant drop.  Reason 1: The Law Enforcement Intervention Firstly, law enforcement has upped the ante in 2024 with actions against both LockBit and ALPHV. The LockBit Arrests In February, an international operation named "Operation Cronos" culminated in the arrest of at least three associates of the infamous LockBit ransomware syndicate in Poland and Ukraine.  Law enforcement from multiple countries collaborated to take down LockBit's infrastructure. This included seizing their dark web domains and gaining access to their backend sys

ArpON 2.2 released - ARP handler inspection !

It detects and blocks also derived attacks by it for more complex attacks, as: DHCP Spoofing, DNS Spoofing, WEB Spoofing, Session Hijacking and SSL/TLS Hijacking & co attacks. This is possible using three kinds of anti ARP Poisoning tecniques: the first is based on SARPI or "Static ARP Inspection" in statically configured networks without DHCP; the second on DARPI or "Dynamic ARP Inspection" in dinamically configured networks having DHCP; the third on HARPI or "Hybrid ARP Inspection" in "hybrid" networks, that is in statically and dynamically (DHCP) configured networks together. SARPI, DARPI and HARPI protects both unidirectional, bidirectional and distributed attacks: into "Unidirectional protection" is required th

About a third of the FBI agents working on cyber investigations lack the networking and counterintelligence expertise to investigate national security intrusions, the Justice Department's inspector general concluded in a new report. The report said the FBI's practice of rotating agents among different offices to promote a variety of work experiences hinders the ability to investigate national security cyber intrusions. The inspector general's audit, based on interviews of 36 agents in 10 offices, emphasized the need for a strong cyber security work force in federal government "is more urgent than ever," said Sen. Susan Collins, the top Republican on the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. The FBI has a comprehensive instructional plan in place that includes 12 core courses an agent must take along with on-the-job training. According to the inspector general's report, many agents said training was helpful but that they did not have the time to take the req
