Securing Virtualised Environments: Understanding and Mitigating Live Migration Attacks

by

Live migration attacks target the transmission of VM data, exploiting vulnerabilities in the migration protocols or hypervisor configurations. Attackers can gain unauthorised access to VMs, inject malicious code, or disrupt the VM’s operation by interfering with the live migration traffic. These attacks can result in severe operational disruption, data breaches, and the compromise of VM images that contain confidential data.

Memory-Scraping Malware: Protecting Against RAM Scrapers in the Cybersecurity Landscape

by

Memory scraping malware targets the RAM of a system, as opposed to traditional malware that often targets files or other storage systems. The memory (RAM) is where the most sensitive, transient data resides, such as decrypted payment information and user credentials. RAM scrapers extract this sensitive data directly from running processes or application memory spaces before it can be encrypted or otherwise secured. This makes RAM scraping a particularly effective approach for cybercriminals intent on bypassing typical security measures, such as encrypted storage.

Key Recovery Attacks: Safeguarding Encryption Keys in the Digital Age

by

Key recovery attacks refer to attempts by malicious actors to retrieve encryption keys used to secure data within an organisation. By obtaining these keys, attackers can decrypt sensitive information, impersonate legitimate users, or perform unauthorised operations, leading to potential data breaches and other cyber risks. These attacks typically target encryption keys stored insecurely, in compromised systems, or within weakly protected environments.

IoT Replay Attacks: Safeguarding Business Integrity and Security

by

An IoT replay attack occurs when a malicious actor intercepts communication between IoT devices and replays this data to execute unauthorised actions. These attacks can exploit weaknesses in communication protocols, allowing the attacker to impersonate a legitimate user, manipulate data, or gain unauthorised access to sensitive information.

IoT Ransomware: The Emerging Threat to Enterprise Operations and How to Mitigate It

by

IoT ransomware operates similarly to traditional ransomware but targets IoT devices instead of conventional endpoints like computers or servers. Once IoT ransomware gains access to an IoT device, it can:
