What is Insider Data Exfiltration?

Mr. Filip Cotfas, Channel Manager, CoSoSys

Data exfiltration refers to the unauthorized copying, transfer, or retrieval of data from a company computer or server. It can be performed by a variety of actors: by outsiders through malware or phishing attacks that can lead to data breaches, by malicious insiders looking to inflict harm on an organization for their own or other entities’ gain, or by careless insiders who leak data by accident. Most often, data exfiltration is a deliberate attempt to appropriative sensitive and valuable data.

Types of Data Exfiltration

There are several ways in which data is exfiltrated on-site by malicious insiders. The most common method, is outbound emails. Legitimate users attach files containing sensitive data to emails and send them to their personal email accounts. They can also copy-paste sensitive information directly into the body of emails or forward confidential internal communications to their own or competitors’ email addresses.

The second most popular data exfiltration method is uploading sensitive data to cloud storage websites.  Information can be exfiltrated from cloud storage when data is uploaded to insecure or misconfigured services. Misconfiguration in particular is a common cause for data leakage when uploaded files are accidentally left exposed to the public. Malicious insiders may also intentionally misconfigure services to give access to unauthorized third parties or make files accessible to themselves from a personal device. Uploading sensitive information to personal cloud drives from company computers is also a frequently used data exfiltration technique.

Another common data exfiltration method is the use of unauthorized removable devices to copy confidential files. Insiders can download sensitive data from the corporate network and store it locally on their work device. Those files can then easily be copied onto USBs or other removable devices connected to the computer. This technique allows employees to steal data without requiring internet or network connection. In fact, by taking their devices offline, insiders can sometimes bypass security policies in place against this type of data theft.

Preventing Data Exfiltration

Sensitive data classification is essential for effective data exfiltration threat detection. While most organizations will flag categories of data such as personally identifiable information (PII) safeguarded under data protection legislation, as sensitive, they often disregard other categories of data that could be deemed sensitive in the context of their industry.

It is therefore important that companies evaluate the data they produce and identify which categories are critical to their business operations and which need to be protected to vouchsafe their competitive advantage. Once these types of data are discovered, organizations can put security controls in place to protect them.

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions, that allow sensitive data to be defined based on a company’s needs, can be used as part of cybersecurity strategies to ensure data security. DLP tools come with predefined profiles for common types of protected information such as PII and intellectual property but also allow for customizable policies to suit a particular organization’s requirements. Once sensitive data is defined, DLP solutions monitor and control its transfer and use.

By monitoring sensitive data and logging any attempts to violate policies, DLP tools allow security teams to spot suspicious user activity and identify employees acting with malicious intent. DLP technology is particularly useful against the two most popular data exfiltration techniques: it can block files containing sensitive information from being transferred to personal email addresses or cloud storage services and even prevents confidential information from being copy-pasted into the body of an email.

When applied on the endpoint, DLP solutions such as Endpoint Protector can also ensure that its policies remain active on a work computer whether it is in the office, used remotely, and regardless of whether it is connected to the internet or not.

Insider data exfiltration is a real threat to company data security and organizations wishing to protect their most valuable data must look for ways to mitigate it. While this can prove a daunting task because it involves insiders with privileged access to confidential information, tools such as DLP solutions can help companies avoid data theft through exfiltration.

Keysight Delivers New IoT Security Assessment Test Software

Bangalore, October 14, 2021 – Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology company that delivers advanced design and validation solutions to help accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, has delivered a new Internet of Things (IoT) Security Assessment software solution that enables IoT chip and device manufacturers, as well as organizations deploying IoT devices, to perform comprehensive, automated cybersecurity assessments.

Increasing numbers of connected IoT devices enable hackers to leverage cybersecurity vulnerabilities for a range of attacks including malware, ransomware and exfiltration of data. According to Statista, the total installed base of IoT connected devices worldwide is projected to grow to 30.9 billion units by 2025 from 13.8 billion units expected in 2021.

“IoT device vulnerabilities are especially dangerous as they can facilitate sensitive data breaches and lead to physical danger, such as industrial equipment malfunction, medical device defects, or a home security system breach,” wrote Merritt Maxim, vice president, research director, and Elsa Pikulik, researcher, Forrester, in the State of IoT Security Report 2021.1 “In 2020, IoT devices were the second most common vector for an external breach and technology leaders rank security issues as a top concern plaguing or hindering IoT deployments.”

IoT Security Vulnerabilities – BrakTooth Discovery

Recently, researchers at Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) discovered a group of vulnerabilities, they named BrakTooth, in commercial Bluetooth chipsets that impact billions of end-user devices. The SUTD research was funded with a grant from Keysight. The SUTD published results were leveraged into improvements in Keysight’s IoT Security Assessment software.

BrakTooth captures fundamental attack vectors against devices using Bluetooth Classic Basic Rate/Enhanced Data Rate (BR/EDR) and is likely to affect Bluetooth chipsets beyond those tested by the SUTD team. “It is hard to accurately gauge the scope of BrakTooth affected chipsets,” commented Sudipta Chattopadhyay, assistant professor, SUTD. “We advise all Bluetooth product manufacturers to conduct appropriate risk assessments, especially if their product may include a vulnerable chipset. We are thankful to Keysight for generously supporting our research and the opportunity to collaborate with the experienced Keysight security team.”

The vulnerabilities, which include 20 common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs), as well as four awaiting CVE assignments, are found in Bluetooth communication chipsets used in System-on-Chip (SoC) boards. These pose risks that include remote code execution, crashes and deadlocks. The SUTD team responsibly disclosed the findings to the affected vendors, providing a means to reproduce the findings and time to remediate vulnerabilities.

“Research activities like these at SUTD are critical to improving cybersecurity in the connected world. If the good guys don’t improve it, the cyber criminals will take advantage of vulnerabilities for nefarious purposes,” said Steve McGregory, senior director of Keysight’s security research and development team. “While investment into research is needed and helpful, software and chipset manufacturers are responsible for delivering secure products using rigorous security testing.”

Keysight’s IoT Security Assessment Software

Keysight’s IoT Security Assessment software leverages more than 20 years of experience in network security testing to reveal security vulnerabilities across any network technology. The software offers comprehensive, automated testing to rapidly cover a large matrix of known and unknown vulnerabilities. IoT security assessments include novel cybersecurity attack tools and techniques for wireless interfaces such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to test known vulnerabilities, as well as to discover new vulnerabilities.

Development organizations can easily integrate Keysight’s API-driven solution into their development pipeline with a single API for control and reporting. Organizations deploying IoT devices can leverage the software to validate IoT devices before they are delivered to end users and as new vulnerabilities become a concern. Ongoing research from Keysight’s Application and Threat Intelligence Research Center provides updates to the latest protocol fuzzing and attack techniques.

Microsoft’s October 2021 Patch Tuesday Addresses 74 CVEs

Microsoft patched 74 CVEs in the October 2021 Patch Tuesday release, including three rated as critical, 70 rated as important and one rated as low. This is the eighth month in 2021 that Microsoft patched fewer than 100 CVEs. Spoofing vulnerability (CVE-2021-36970) in the Windows Print Spooler received a CVSSv3 score of 8.8 and the designation of “Exploitation More Likely” according to Microsoft’s Exploitability Index. This vulnerability requires that an attacker have access to the same network as a target and user interaction. The advisory lists that a functional exploit does exist for this vulnerability so we may see a PoC circulating in the wild. Please find further comment on this month’s Patch Tuesday from Satnam Narang, Staff Research Engineer, Tenable.

“This month’s Patch Tuesday release includes fixes for 74 CVEs, three of which are rated critical, including one vulnerability that was exploited in the wild as a zero-day. This month’s release includes a fix for CVE-2021-36970, a spoofing vulnerability in Microsoft’s Windows Print Spooler. The vulnerability was discovered by researchers XueFeng Li and Zhiniang Peng of Sangfor. They were also credited with the discovery of CVE-2021-1675, one of two vulnerabilities known as PrintNightmare. While no details have been shared publicly about the flaw, this is definitely one to watch for, as we saw a constant stream of Print Spooler-related vulnerabilities patched over the summer while ransomware groups began incorporating PrintNightmare into their affiliate playbook.

“We strongly encourage organisations to apply these patches as soon as possible. Microsoft also patched CVE-2021-40449, an elevation of privilege vulnerability in Win32k. According to reports, this flaw was exploited in the wild as a zero-day. It is not uncommon to see zero-day elevation of privilege flaws patched during Patch Tuesday. These flaws are most valuable in post-compromise scenarios once an attacker has gained access to a target system through other means, in order to execute code with elevated privileges.” – Satnam Narang, Staff Research Engineer, Tenable

IDP’s new app to transform the international landscape for the next generation of international students

8th October 2021: After a year of uncertainty and travel disruptions, international students are now starting to regain control over their education future thanks to a new app and service launched by IDP Education.

The IDP Live fast-track service helps students in India to receive in-principle offers for their dream course right from their smartphone or in an IDP office, alongside one of IDP’s expert counsellors.

Students are invited to share their study goals and current qualifications. Upon completing their academic profile, they are matched to courses they are eligible to apply for. If they want to proceed, students can receive an in-principle offer from their chosen institution within 30 minutes of submission.

This transformative real-time response means the student can choose to only apply to courses where they know they meet the entry criteria, greatly reducing the number of applications they submit, whilst institutions receive higher-quality applications, more quickly.

Piyush Kumar, Regional Director (South Asia), IDP Education said the app centres around bringing IDP’s trusted advice and support to students, right from the convenience of their phone.

“The last 18 months have reminded us that technology is great, but its real purpose is to empower us, and to connect us together with others. When making decisions as big as studying overseas, you need to know you have someone in your corner. IDP Live streamlines the paperwork and administrative process so students can spend more time having real conversations about their future and their goals.

“With IDP Live, students can have confidence that all institutions listed are high quality and that they have the support of IDP’s expert team with them at every step of their research journey.”

One of the biggest improvements of IDP Live is the introduction of fast-tracked applications with select universities.

“Rather than having to apply to multiple institutions, IDP Live matches students earlier in their decision-making journey and allows them to get a near-instant indication on whether they will receive an offer to study,” Mr.Kumar said.

Andrew Barkla, IDP Education Chief Executive Officer, said the service represented an entirely new way for students to find the best-fit courses.

“IDP Live will bring our industry into a future in which technology enhances the interactions between our counsellors, students and institutions, driving the best outcomes for all. The introduction of the fast-track service, which combines cutting-edge technology and trusted human interactions, has immediately begun to help students around the world to find best-fit courses. Our evolving ecosystem, a connected community of students, institutions and counsellors is working to help drive the recovery of international education,” Mr Barkla said.

IDP Live features include:

o Fast-track service – A course search and matching service for students and institutions leading to the student receiving an offer faster

o Personalised search and course recommendation engine

o Course favourite shortlist directly connected to and actionable by IDP Counsellors

o Student 360, connecting counsellors to the most relevant updates about their students
