This infographic offers illustrations that reveal data from the holiday shopping trends of 2018.

This report offers insight into global threats that occur during the Holiday shopping season.

The third quarter of 2017 saw an increase in the number of malicious apps flooding the mobile marketplace, the continued issues of imitation and trojan apps in official app stores, and the emergence of the WireX mobile botnet. In this report, they’ll give an overview of these mobile threats, as well as emerging trends they anticipate will be prevalent in Q4 and beyond to help you protect yourself and your customers.

In this report, we’ll give an overview of the recent mobile threats RiskIQ detected in Q2 of 2017, as well as emerging trends we anticipate will be prevalent in Q3 and beyond to help you protect yourself and your customers.

In this report, IntSights looks to identify which mobile platforms are gaining traction and may be the future backbone of the illegal cyber-economy. The data in this report will help you understand how dark web communication is changing with mobile adoption and how this impacts the way security teams monitor dark web activity. By reading this report, security teams can better prepare for this shift and be better resourced to evolve with it

In this research report, IntSights and Riskified will show the scope and severity of the current threat and fraud landscape for retailers. We will share key research findings and common examples of retail fraud and show how fraudsters commonly target retailers using their digital assets and the dark web. Additionally, we will explore the latest threats to the retail sector, such as tools, techniques and real-life examples, and we will close with our predictions for 2019.

From the report, “From the start of 2017 through the first half of 2018, cybercrime groups have generated billions of dollars worth of profit and have caused gross losses of more than $1 trillion to the markets because of their attacks, according to the World Economic Forum1. Over the past year, we have seen a surge in attempts to attack banks across both existing and new vectors, including targeting major bank transfer platforms (such as SWIFT), phishing emails and phishing websites to steal credentials (targeting both customers and employees), mobile malware and fake mobile applications, ATM scamming methods, ATM and PoS (Point of Sale) attacks, DDoS campaigns and attacks against e-banking interfaces.”

IntSights provides the industry’s most comprehensive view into internal and external threats facing the Gaming and Leisure industry. This report will demonstrate and classify threats that are actively underway, or being planned. This will enable security teams to better resource and fortify their infrastructure against attacks.

Mention the dark web and many people summon imagery of a massive, mysterious online criminal underground, where all manner of products and information are bought, sold, and traded, hidden away from the prying eyes of the public and law enforcement. But is that really what it’s like, or is that just cybersecurity marketing hype?

In this new research, Farsight Security selected the primary domain for nearly 4000 organizations, including leading global corporations and higher education institutions. We then tested those domains using key DNS indicators to assess adoption of emerging technologies and risk exposure.

How to make threat intelligence relevant to executives, business stakeholders, security operations and incident responders

A survey of financial services executives responsible for digital security measures at their firms (see Methodology) sheds light on the industry’s objectives for digital channels, perceptions about the scale of the threat posed by fraud and a range of vectors for attack, and confidence in existing defenses.

This report offers insight into threat hunting. It specifically focusses on the “Human Detection Engine.”

This paper discuses a particular Business Email Compromise that has appeared out of Nigeria.

This report provides insight into the top stories from the third quarter of 2018.

In this edition, we highlight the notable investigative research and trends in threats statistics gathered by the McAfee Advanced Threat Research and McAfee Labs teams in Q2 of 2018. Cybercriminals continue to follow the money. Although this statement is familiar, our latest Threats Report clearly shows the migration from certain older attacks to new threat vectors as they become more profitable. Just as in Q1, we see the popularity of cryptocurrency mining continue to rise. In this report we detail recent findings from three McAfee Labs analyses that appeared in Q2. You can read summaries of each on pages 5-7. One area of investigation by our research teams is in digital assistants. In Q2 we analyzed a vulnerability in Microsoft’s Cortana. This flaw allowed an attacker to log into a locked Windows device and execute code. Following our vulnerability disclosure policy, we communicated our findings to Microsoft; the analysis resulted in CVE-2018-8140. We also examined the world of cryptocurrency attacks with an in-depth view of blockchain technology. Our report detailed many of the vulnerabilities being exploited by threat actors looking for a quick return on their investment.

In 2018, our global Services team focused resources, intelligence and technology to detect and disrupt future attacks. We’ve analyzed the massive amounts of security data collected from every engagement this year and we’ve gained new insights into what challenges organizations face and how they can better prepare for the next wave of threats. This casebook presents some of the findings and recommendations we’ve made in key engagements across a representative sample of the work we performed last year. We dig into: Emerging and notable trends Examples of ill-prepared organizations and the devastating effects of the breaches they suffered Essential recommendations to prevent companies from becoming another statistic of poor security planning and execution This casebook also underscores the expertise of our team and the important work we’re doing at CrowdStrike® Services. As you read the case studies, you will see that CrowdStrike stands shoulder-to-shoulder with our clients as we work together to stop adversaries and repair damage. But this casebook is not just for CrowdStrike clients — we want everyone to become better prepared to overcome their adversaries in 2019.

When law enforcement announced the seizure of AlphaBay in July 2017, the United States Attorney General Jeff Sessions described the operation as: “one of the most important criminal investigations of the year…because of this operation, the American people are safer – safer from the threat of identity fraud and malware, and safer from deadly drugs.” 1 The timing and coordination of the law enforcement operation, known as Operation Bayonet, was a clear success and has contributed to multiple subsequent arrests.2 Almost one year later, the marketplace model appears to be in decline, but the risks to businesses and consumers have not subsided. Instead, this paper demonstrates that cybercriminals have taken to incorporating new processes, technologies, and communication methods to continue their activities.

From the report, “Unless companies come to realize that their security perimeters must grow beyond the corporate firewall to encompass social media networks and other areas such as the Dark Web, then the global cost of cyber crime will continue to mushroom.

Working with some of the world’s leading online brands, CyberInt takes a look at the fraud threats that retailers receive in the cyber world.
