  • Lokibot via fake purchase order but won’t run in W7 or W8.1

    I have got a very unusual and somewhat difficult to analyse set of malware files here. I received 2 different versions of this email. The first with just an XLSX attachment, the second with both an XLSX and a .rar attachment. Running the xlsx file through Anyrun  using W7 64 bit resulted in a system freeze where it took so much memory &... Read More

  • AgentTesla keylogger campaigns continue

  • claiming to offer a home insulation scheme which is supported by East Sussex County Council.

      East Sussex Trading Standards are warning residents to be vigilant about companies who are cold calling and claiming to offer a home insulation scheme which is supported by East Sussex County Council. However, it is possible that similar improper approaches may be made anywhere across the county. It is not in the remit for East Sussex County Council to support schemes that involve cold calling, and companies claiming that they do are misleading residents and may be breaking the law. This warning follows a spate of recent complaints from residents in Hastings about cold callers falsely offering an ESCC supported insulation scheme, but incidents may also be occurring elsewhere.

  • More compromised windstream email sending malspam with Orion keylogger

    Following on from Last Friday, it is looking like Windstream, Zimbra & Synacor still have a problem with accounts being compromised and mass malspam being sent.  Generally speaking the majority of ISPs are pretty good with blocking outgoing spam & malware emails. They generally restrict the numbers of emails sent per hour / day for... Read More

    Get Safe Online With Switched On Parents In July 2019

      Do you really know what your child does when they’re online? For our children and young people, the internet is a wonderful place where they can explore, learn new things, communicate, be entertained and much more, with their curiosity and appetite for new content evolving and growing as they do. At Get Safe Online, we embrace these benefits, but equally, we know that it can be a challenging and potentially hazardous experience. Do you know how long they’re spending online, what content they’re viewing or who they’re chatting with? Are you concerned that they could be bullied, befriended by the wrong kind of people or even being persuaded to commit criminal offences? Or even that it could be your child who’s the abuser or budding cybercriminal? (After all, everyone is somebody’s child). Ironically, the fact that Read More

  • Watch out for these fake account emails.

    We’ve seen an increase in reports about fake account emails claiming that there’s an issue with your account, or that your account has been suspended. The email states that you need to “update” your account details in order to resolve the problem. The link in the emails leads to genuine-looking company phishing websites designed to steal your username and password, as well as payment details. Always question unsolicited requests for your personal or financial information in case it’s a scam. Never automatically click on a link in an unexpected email or text.

    Our actions have an impact. - Tearfund

    As part of Tearfund’s Matched Giving Appeal, we are asking supporters to donate and pledge to reduce their plastic. When we speak out about plastic pollution and how it affects people in poverty, we are keeping the issue on the agenda. When we show by our actions that we want to live in a less wasteful world, we are valuing what God has given us and caring for our global neighbours, as well as sending a powerful signal that we want decision-makers to act. Join us by taking the Plastic Pledge to give up using one single-use plastic item for 40 days (or more!). Every single-use plastic item we save is one less thing in a landfill site, ocean or incinerator – or one less thing shipped overseas for another country to dispose of.Single-use plastics are plastic items that are only intended to be used once, such as soft drinks bottles. The most common items include disposable cups, drinks bottles, non-recyclable packaging, wipes and female hygiene products. Finding alternatives to these plastics is easier than you might think! It can be very satisfying to know that you are walking that little bit lighter on the earth – and often, it saves you money too. Read More

  • Have Your Say On Sussex Police Funding

    Have Your Say On Sussex Police Funding

    This week 70 new police officers completed their training, and a further 38 have started theirs as part of the biggest recruitment drive in Sussex for over ten years, made possible by this year’s increase in the police element of council tax - the precept. Last week the Government announced the provisional funding settlement for policing in a £970 million package that gives Police & Crime Commissioners the ability, should they wish, to raise the precept above the current £12 limit. This unprecedented funding opportunity could help Sussex to recruit substantial numbers of PCSOs and even more police officers, as well as improving the public contact service, especially the 101 non-emergency number. Although no final decisions will be made until early February next year, the Chief Constable and the PCC, Katy Bourne, have indicated their commitment to ensure that residents will see and feel the benefit of any extra funding raised locally. If you have not already done so, you can give the PCC your views on police funding by completing a very short survey available on her website at https://www.sussex-pcc.gov.uk/. I have been asked by the PCC to pass on her thanks to all Neighbourhood Watch volunteers for your support of Sussex Police throughout the year, which I am doing with great pleasure. Season's greetings to all Read More

    From Neighbourhood to Cyberhood: Over a third of Neighbourhood Watch members now more concerned about cybercrime than physical crime. Cybercrime now feels like more of a threat than physical crime for a rising number of households across England and Wales, with more people either falling victim personally, or knowing someone who has been a victim of online theft, according to research from over 14,000 Neighbourhood Watch members. The research, carried out in conjunction with Avast, a cybersecurity leader in the UK, found that those who believe cybercrime is less of a threat than physical crime are firmly in the minority (15%).

  • new AgentTesla Keylogger install method – Choice.exe

    We continue to see AgentTesla keylogger / Infostealer on a daily basis. The UK generally has been fairly quiet for malware over the last few months ( since Easter 2019) and we are only seeing the “commodity” malware like AgentTesla, Hawkeye, Nanocore, Lokibot etc on a very frequent basis. Over the last week or 10 days we have noticed a... Read More

  • Hawkeye keylogger via fake receipt. Stolen data sent to another keylogger site.

    Over the last month or 6 weeks we, along with many other researchers, have noticed quite a drop in Malspam, in fact in spam generally. Nobody quite knows why but generally this means one or other of the major spam sending botnets has been taken down or is retooling & getting ready for a  new set of campaigns. One of the few constant... Read More

  • curry pcworld data loss 2018

    curry pcworld data loss 2018

    On June 13, we began to contact a number of our customers as a precaution after we found that some of our security systems had been accessed in the past using sophisticated malware. We promptly launched an investigation. Since then we have been putting further security measures in place to safeguard customer information, increased our investment in cyber security and added additional controls. In all of this we have been working intensively with leading cyber security experts. Our investigation, which is now nearing completion, has identified that approximately 10 million records containing personal data may have been accessed in 2017. This unauthorised access to data may include personal information such as name, address, phone number, date of birth and email address. While there is now evidence that some of this data may have left our systems, these records do not contain payment card or bank account details and we have no confirmed instances of customers falling victim to fraud as a result. We are continuing to keep the relevant authorities updated. Read More
