Malware is a vehicle to fulfill goals and should not be considered solely malicious code. Based on BlackBerry Cylance telemetry and our in-house cyber threat intelligence (CTI) analysis, we have identified the most prominent threat actors targeting automotive, healthcare, financial and other industries worldwide. Who are they? What are their tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) and what tools do they use to target Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android devices?

CTI Insights: Q4 2022 Cyberthreats Landscape – What have we seen?

The nature of work has fundamentally changed, magnifying the importance of secure, high-performance, and flexible remote access. Many organizations discovered that their legacy VPNs weren’t up to supporting the increased use of cloud services, the swing to remote and hybrid work models, and the need to enable third-party access to internal applications.

Watch cybersecurity experts from BlackBerry and ESG as they discuss:
-The vulnerabilities of VPN
-The importance of a VPN replacement strategy
-What ZTNA is, and why so many organizations turning to ZTNA

How to Enable Zero Trust Secure Access in the Era of Work From Anywhere

BlackBerry recently commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a Total Economic ImpactTM Study of CylancePROTECT®. In this session, we focus on key market trends that impact endpoint security from both the industry and customer perspectives.  

Key topics include:  

-Massive growth in attacks 
-The anywhere work impact 
-Vendor landscape  
-Doing more with less 
-Reducing integration complexity 
-How telemetry is critical 
-XDR distraction versus the need for prevention first

Understanding Endpoint Security Market and Customer Trends

Let’s go back, way back to 2013 when AV was AV, whitelisting was whitelisting, and EDR ads were taking over airport terminals. Ah, the good old days.

News Flash! Dr. Emmett Brown just showed up and he’s got urgent news from the future. No matter how good your incident response capabilities are, they cannot stand on their own (sort of like Biff, who was nothing without his buddies).

To be effective, incident response (IR) must be part of an overarching strategy that includes prevention and detection. It must be integrated with and supported by SOC and adjacent services that identify, prevent, and detect threats regardless of source and location, internal and external, or on network or off.

Join SANS Instructor Greg Scheidel and BlackBerry’s vCISO Robert Fink as they discuss what we’ve learned about prevention, detection, and response in the past, what we can glean about the future of enterprise IT, and what it means for the future of your endpoint protection strategies.

Back to the Future: What Will Endpoint IR Really Look Like?

What is the difference between endpoint detection and response (EDR), extended detection and response (XDR), and managed XDR (MXDR)? And which approach makes the most sense for your organization? Sorting through these cybersecurity solutions can offer insights and ideas about the strategy that would most rapidly and easily increase an organization’s security posture.

Watch Patrick Slattery, Global Director of Managed Detection and Response (MDR) Services at BlackBerry, as he shares his expertise on these cyber solutions and how each can benefit organizations of all sizes.

EDR vs. XDR vs. Managed XDR: Which Makes Sense for You?

Ransomware attacks are no longer “drive-by” events. Encryption is only one of the problems among a list of others that include operational disruption and data exfiltration for extortion, ransom, sale, and re-sale.

Join SANS Senior Instructor Jake Williams, SANS Instructor and BlackBerry Principal Incident Response Consultant Ryan Chapman, and BlackBerry Most Distinguished Threat Researcher Dmitry Bestuzhev as they dissect and analyze today’s typical ransomware operation. They will look at initial access, local privilege escalation, lateral movement, and much more, closing with advice on detection and prevention opportunities.

Security environments are continuously becoming more complex, burdening security professionals with endless alerts and maintenance. All the while, cybersecurity professionals are becoming scarcer. But, upgrading your endpoint environment shouldn't equate to more complexity. Watch this on-demand webinar to learn more about the new capabilities within CylancePROTECT® 3 – to enhance and improve your security posture with an automated approach to security. 

In this session, you'll learn: 

-How to enhance and automate your security.
-Why you should upgrade to CylancePROTECT 3.
-How customers are leveraging the advantages of new CylancePROTECT features to ensure cyber resiliency.

Update CylancePROTECT 3 to Automate and Simplify Your Endpoint Security

As enterprise infrastructures have expanded in scope and complexity, so too have the cyberthreats that target them. In today’s digital-first environment, legacy security controls are unlikely to be able to stand up to the volume and sophistication of these attacks. Even newer security software may be overwhelming and require nuanced human intervention, which is not always accessible due to the continuing security skills shortage. To address this, some organizations are turning to managed extended detection and response (XDR) services, to strengthen their cybersecurity capabilities.

Managed XDR can be useful not just for greater technological heft, but also for advanced strategies and expert assistance. Security programs must simultaneously handle prevention, detection, response, and recovery, in order to reduce the impact of any potential cyberattack. ESG has found that, by outsourcing to an experienced managed XDR vendor, organizations have reported both improved security efficacy and operational efficiency. From noise and cost reduction to security program development, identifying the right partner could make all the difference in your security outcomes.

In this webinar from BlackBerry and ESG, industry experts will assess the full impact that managed XDR can have on security programs.

Tune in to learn more about:
— The challenges security operations teams are facing today
— What makes a managed XDR service different from a traditional MDR service
— How managed XDR can be leveraged in high-risk situations, in real time
— What the security program long game could look like, with XDR support
— And much more

Strengthening Security Program Outcomes with Managed XDR

A cybersecurity protocol can commonly be broken down into three stages: prevention; detection & response; and recovery. By implementing effective protocols at the beginning of the funnel, companies can dramatically reduce the number of threats that require an active response. Yet many organizations have decided to focus on the bottom of the funnel, resigning themselves to handle a large volume of cyberthreats. This will be a resource drain, no matter how efficient your detection and recovery systems are.

Effective prevention has historically been challenging, but new technology has dramatically changed what is now possible. With the right behavior-targeting software in place, machine learning and AI can be leveraged to great effect. What’s more, concerns around access management can also be tackled through a new approach: Zero-Trust. The possibilities are so great for Zero-Trust, that ESG research found that more than two-thirds of surveyed companies plan to replace existing endpoint security solutions in support of ZT.

Tune into this webinar from Blackberry and ESG to deep dive into the evolution of endpoint security and uncover the wide-ranging impact that Zero-Trust could have on your business. Expert speakers will tackle:
— The limitations of current prevention strategies
— The most effective ways to shape your cybersecurity funnel
— How ZT fits into your network
— And much more

Shape your cybersecurity funnel with Zero Trust: Benefits & impact

A few months ago, in a joint collaboration with Intezer, we discovered a new, previously undetected malware that acts in a parasitic nature and affects Linux® operating systems. It appears to have been written to target the financial sector in Latin America. We have aptly named this malware Symbiote.

Symbiote is a highly evasive malware whose main objective is to capture credentials and to facilitate backdoor access to infected machines. Once on the host machine, it cleverly hides itself, its network traffic, and any other malware used by the threat actor. Because it operates as a userland level rootkit, detecting a Symbiote infection may be nearly impossible. What makes Symbiote different from other Linux malware is its ability to infect running processes, rather than using a standalone executable file to inflict damage. Symbiote is one of the most sophisticated Linux threats we’ve seen in recent times, but trends we’ve observed in the current threat landscape suggest it won’t be the last.

Please join our Most Distinguished Threat Researcher Dmitry Bestuzhev on this deep dive to learn more about Symbiote and how to protect your users and your network environment against it.
