Thwarting Increased APT Attacks on Health Care Organizations and Essential Services as They Race for a COVID-19 Treatment
As healthcare organizations, pharmaceutical companies, and local governments work round the clock to respond to and provide effective treatment options to the COVID-19 pandemic, APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) groups are ramping up their attacks on these institutions, as highlighted by the recently issued joint alert by the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC).
Attacks range from password spraying to looking for vulnerabilities in unpatched software to leveraging previously observed threats such as phishing. The goal is simple – to steal identities, and research related to potential vaccines.
