After examining topics such as the MITRE ATT&CK framework , LOLBins , and others, this release will look at DNS traffic to malicious sites. We’ll also look at malicious DNS activity—the number of queries malicious sites receive. While performing this analysis we looked at a wide variety of threat trends. Cryptomining.
The OpenText Security Solutions threat intelligence team is sharing mid- year updates to our 2022 BrightCloud® ThreatReport. Malware Solution Option: Windows 11 adoption remains very slow which highlights the importance of incorporating a layered security approach that includes DNS protection to help reduce infection rates.

Threat Intelligence Report Date: August 6, 2024 Prepared by: David Brunsdon, Threat Intelligence - Security Engineer, HYAS Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is a service that automatically updates the Domain Name System (DNS) in real-time to reflect changes in the IP addresses of a domain.
Since the onset of the pandemic, cyberattackers have increasingly looked to leverage DNS channels to steal data, launch DDoS attacks and deploy malware—and the cost of these attacks is rising. According to IDC’s 2020 Global DNSThreatReport, the average cost of such an attack is now approaching $1 million, and impacts can range from.
A firewall with the right threat intelligence embedded could have blocked communications with the command-and-control server thus preventing a Trojanized Orion install from connecting back to the attackers and stopping them from furthering the attack. DNS security solutions are one way of addressing this risk.
In fact, phishing attacks spiked by 510% from just January – February 2020, according to the 2021 ThreatReport. Overall, 76% of executives report that phishing is still up compared to before the pandemic. That’s because cybercriminals have found success by targeting COVID-19 fears with their schemes.
50,000 DDoS attacks on public domain name service (DNS) resolvers. 553% increase in DNS Flood attacks from 1H 2020 to 2H 2023. DDoS attacks on single networks or websites render them unavailable, but DDoS attacks on DNS resolvers bring down all networks and websites using that DNS resource.
Use hardened internal and external DNS servers by applying Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC), along with registry locking domains; looking at certificate validation; and implementing email authentication like DMARC, SPF and DKIM.
As we navigate through 2024, the cyber threat landscape continues to evolve, bringing new challenges for both businesses and individual consumers. The latest OpenText ThreatReport provides insight into these changes, offering vital insights that help us prepare and protect ourselves against emerging threats.
This can be achieved through protective DNS solutions, or firewall rules to prevent potential malware communications from reaching their command-and-control (C2) servers.

LLMs can help attackers avoid signature based detection Traditionally, C2 traffic might be disguised as normal web traffic, DNS queries, or go through known platforms like Slack or Telegram. The AI might correlate it with known cases like BlackMamba or others from threatreports, accelerating threat hunting.
We recently came across previously unknown malicious artifacts that we attributed to the Lyceum/Hexane threat group, showing that the attackers behind it are still active and have been developing their toolset during the last year. Final thoughts.
