"Cybercriminals Implemented Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Invoice Fraud"

Resecurity has discovered "GXC Team," a cybercriminal group specializing in developing tools for online banking theft, ecommerce deception, and Internet scams. On the dark web, the group's leader recently announced significant price cuts for their products. The posts made by the leader introduced a new tool that applies Artificial Intelligence (AI) to generate fraudulent invoices for use in wire fraud and Business Email Compromise (BEC). According to an FBI report, successful BEC scams led to an average loss of more than $120,000 per incident, costing organizations more than $2.4 billion.

"A Ransomware Payments Ban Risks Criminalizing Victims"

"A Ransomware Payments Ban Risks Criminalizing Victims"

According to industry experts, government bans on ransomware payments risk criminalizing victims. Dominic Trott, director of strategy and alliances at Orange Cyberdefense, points out that a blanket ban on ransomware payments could "shift the focus of criminality" from perpetrators to victims. The warning is prompted by an advisory from the cybersecurity company Emsisoft, which suggested stricter government action against companies that make ransomware payments. These payments would result in ransomware groups being able to scale operations and expand attacks.

"Ivanti Warns Critical EPM Bug Lets Hackers Hijack Enrolled Devices"

A critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability in Ivanti's Endpoint Management (EPM) software could have enabled unauthenticated attackers to take control of enrolled devices or the core server. Ivanti EPM helps manage client devices running various platforms. The now-fixed security vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2023-39336, could have allowed an attacker with access to a target's internal network to launch low-complexity attacks that do not require privileges or user interaction. This article continues to discuss the potential exploitation and impact of the critical EPM flaw.

"Machine Learning Helps Fuzzing Find Hardware Bugs"

"Machine Learning Helps Fuzzing Find Hardware Bugs"

A new study titled "MABFuzz: Multi-Armed Bandit Algorithms for Fuzzing Processors" delves into the fuzzing technique that introduces commands and prompts to a chip in order to cause the system to behave erratically and unpredictably. The irregular responses to "fuzzed" commands can then point researchers to potential vulnerabilities in the system. If the system does something unusual, researchers examine it to see if there is a security flaw that hackers could exploit. Researchers used reinforcement learning to select inputs for fuzz testing in this study.
