Wer erinnert sich noch an Kevin Mitnick? In den 1980er und 1990er-Jahren vom #FBI gesucht und als einer der Wegbereiter des "#Socialengineering" zum Mythos geworden, wird in einer ausführlichen Reportage über den 2023 verstorbenen #Computerhacker berichtet, der in seinen späteren Jahren zum #Cybersecurity Experten avancierte:

"Am Weihnachtstag 1994 hackte sich Kevin Mitnick in das Heimnetzwerk von Tsutomu Shimomura, einem bekannten Computersicherheitsexperten."

Replied in thread

@EllyvA : precies. Ook ik ben mens en dus maak ook fouten en doe onverstandige/risicovolle dingen; ik ben als de dood dat ik een keer ergens intrap.

Ik hoop dat ik dan net zo dapper ben als Charlotte Cowles (thecut.com/article/amazon-scam - m.i. zeer lezenswaardig) en Troy Hunt (*) in troyhunt.com/a-sneaky-phish-ju.

In security.nl/posting/840236/Vei leg ik uit hoe je het veiligste kunt inloggen (dit helpt niet tegen foute sites waarop je nog geen account hebt).

Aanvulling verderop in die pagina (directe link: security.nl/posting/876137): zet altijd "Waarschuwen voor onveilige verbindingen" aan als jouw browser dat ondersteunt (met screenshots voor Safari op iPhone/iPad: infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStrat).

Virussen en phishing

(Een late reactie op een discussie tussen @EllyvA en @ximaar eindigend met mastodon.nl/@EllyvA/1140645354).

Computervirussen, in de zin van malware (malicious software) die zichzelf verspreidt, zie ik nauwelijks nog - omdat mensen geen floppies meer gebruiken om gegevens uit te wisselen.

Cybercriminelen gebruiken nu vooral social engineering om mensen te bestelen, of om aan vertrouwelijke gegevens te komen waarmee zij vervolgens mensen overtuigen dat zij een betrouwbare partij zijn.

Als zij malware maken bestaat de kwaadaardige component uit een programma (of script in het een of andere document) dat zij bij elke verspreiding wijzigen, en eerst testen op alle gangbare virusscanners (waardoor de meeste scanners aanvankelijk kansloos zijn).

In een steeds groter deel van de gevallen maakt malware misbruik van standaard onder Windows geïnstalleerde software ("lolbins" - Living Of the Land binaries) of installeert een legitieme driver waarmee verhoogde rechten (administrator privileges) worden verkregen.

Ook zeer populair zijn RAT's, Remote Access Tools zoals Teamviewer en Anydesk (steeds vaker misbruikt ook op Android en iPhones). Mensen wordt vaak voorgelogen dat zij een virusscanner zouden moeten installeren - en dat is dus zo'n RAT, zie infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStrat.

En inderdaad is phishing een gigantisch probleem - waar virusscanners nauwelijks of niet tegen helpen, omdat criminelen steeds nieuwe domeinnamen gebruiken (vb: security.nl/posting/879531) voor hun websites, en vaak captcha's inzetten waar virusscanners niet "doorheen komen".

Het komt ook voor dat automatisch door browsers verzonden gegevens, en/of IP-adressen, en/of tijdstip van de dag vaak aan specifieke criteria moeten voldoen wil de kwaadaardige versie van een website worden getoond (zie screenshot, druk Alt voor meer info).

Het beste dat je kunt doen, na het openen van een webpagina, is niet op de inhoud letten maar op de DOMEINNAAM (in de adresbalk van de browser). Voor veel te veel mensen is het echter (nagenoeg) onmogelijk om vast te stellen dat een gegeven domeinnaam *niet* van de gesuggereerde organisatie is - en hier bestaat helaas geen SIMPEL en betrouwbaar recept voor.
