This blog was originally published on MSSP Alert on September 20, 2024 Cybersecurity platformization is usually discussed as it relates to large organizations. But cybersecurity service businesses stand to benefit as much from platformization as enterprises — if not more so.

In September 2024, Netskope Threat Labs reported a Python-based NodeStealer targeting Facebook business accounts. NodeStealer collects Facebook and other credentials stored in the browser and its cookie data. For over a year, we have tracked and discovered multiple variants of this infostealer. It is now targeting new victims and extracting new information using new techniques. In this blog post, we will dissect the development of the Python NodeStealer from multiple samples in the wild.

Protecting their private data is always a task for businesses in today's cyber world, where data breaches and cyberattacks are steadily on the rise. One of the biggest threats to data privacy and security is data leakage, which happens when private information leaves an organization's secure setting either by accident or on purpose. Companies all over the world are realizing they need Data Leakage Protection (DLP) options right away because of the growing number of high-profile data breaches.

2024 was a thrilling year for Graylog Capture The Flag (CTF) events! Across major cybersecurity conferences, Graylog invited participants to test their skills in a range of challenging scenarios designed to simulate real-world cyber threats. From North America to Europe and beyond, we saw cybersecurity professionals and enthusiasts go head-to-head in Graylog CTFs, flexing their skills, deepening their knowledge, and having fun along the way.

Why are so many security teams migrating from legacy SOAR tools to next-gen solutions? This was one of the topics up for discussion as Tines engineer Whitney Young joined host Adrian Sanabria on the Enterprise Security Weekly podcast. Read on for a behind-the-scenes look at Whitney’s process for legacy SOAR migrations, including her top tips for teams considering a switch.

Storm-0940 is a Chinese advanced persistent threat (APT) group that has operated since at least 2021, although some evidence suggests involvement in earlier incidents. Known for its complex cyber espionage tactics, this group primarily targets government agencies, military organizations, and critical infrastructure to gain intelligence for political and military advantage. Leveraging an arsenal of techniques ranging from spear-phishing to exploiting software vulnerabilities.

Maintaining robust cybersecurity defenses comes with significant costs, but one area that often exceeds is the ongoing administration of Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems. The expenses associated with logging, storing, and managing SIEM data can escalate rapidly, especially when compounded by compliance and regulatory requirements. What are these hidden costs and how can you mitigate them while also ensuring compliance?

In 2024, cyber threats are evolving fast. Attackers are using advanced tools like AI-powered malware, ransomware-as-a-service models, and targeted supply chain attacks that can get past traditional security measures. To fight these threats, security teams need tools that can move faster than attackers, giving them a clear view and coordinated responses across their IT ecosystem.

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are cyberattacks that aim to overwhelm and disrupt online services, making them inaccessible to users. By leveraging a network of distributed devices, DDoS attacks flood the target system with excessive requests, consuming its bandwidth or exhausting compute resources to the point of failure. These attacks can be highly effective against unprotected sites and relatively inexpensive for attackers to launch.
