Since we published our first report , the attackers first modified their attack to attempt to use what we previously described as the backup channel. Since 2018, Sophos has faced increasingly aggressive campaigns, including the India-based Sophos subsidiary Cyberoam, where attackers exploited a wall-mounted display for initial access.
The threat actors are actively exploiting the following vulnerabilities in Fortinet FortiOS: CVE-2018-13379 ; CVE-2020-12812 ; CVE-2019-5591.

The agencies offered some sound cybersecurity advice for BlackByte that applies pretty generally: Conduct regular backups and store them as air-gapped, password-protected copies offline. Update and patch operating systems, software, and firmware as soon as updates and patches are released.
Prevent Rely solely on offline backups Disallow unnecessary file sharing. From BIOS and firmware to UEFI code, VBOS is an attack vector that requires more attention. While the design of a unified extensible firmware interface (UEFI) overcame BIOS limitations, both components critical to computer operation are an increasing target.
Amazon bought Ring in 2018. Amazon bought Ring in 2018. SimpliSafe downplayed the risk and did not address the issue with a simple firmware update, suggesting that a full device replacement might be needed. SimpliSafe quickly fixed this with a firmware update. Over time, they expanded into CCTV cameras and home alarms.
Small and mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly at risk of cyber-attacks, and often serve as a launch pad for larger threat campaigns, according to Cisco’s 2018 SMB Cybersecurity Report. Businesses must also ensure they have secure backups of their critical data. Lack of Cybersecurity Knowledge. SQL Injection.
They changed their tactics in 2018 and started using ransomware in the form of Ryuk. Below is a list of recommended mitigations from the FBI, which it issued along with an alert on Conti ransomware late last week: Regularly back up data, air gap, and password protect backup copies offline. Implement network segmentation.
The hackers hit Hancock Regional Hospital during a severe 2018 flu season. Patch operating systems, software, and firmware as soon as manufacturers release updates.

And while approval is pending, a separate group creates offline backups of essential files that are needed in the event of an error and affected systems need restoring. Create and test offline backups Speaking of backups, never assume they work.
Perhaps the most well-known research was presented in 2018 at Blackhat by Billy Rios and Johnathan Butts. Lastly, the pump runs its own custom Real Time Operating System (RTOS) and firmware on a M32C microcontroller. The backup archive can then be downloaded for later restore of the settings.
