Verizon Business Security Blog ? Blog Archive ? Weekly Intelligence ...

We ended 2012 and began 2013 with news of a breach at the Council on Foreign Relations leading to a drive-by-download caused by a previously unreported vulnerability in Internet Explorer. Symantec has tied this attack to the Elderwood Project linked to the People?s Republic of China. Three more victim web sites, Capstone Turbine, PHIL-AM Tour and Uygur Haber Ajansi have been reported in OSINT. Trend Micro published a report on the ?HeartBeat APT? campaign targeting organizations and communities in the Republic of Korea. Sensitive trade negotiations may have been compromised by a breach at the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries in Japan. Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Cyber Fighters persist in DoSing US financial services companies. The latest instance of digital certificate spoofing isn?t especially significant, it?s a small example of our known, unresolved ?hard problem? in the Certificate Authority trust model. And we?ll start off 2013 just like last year with seven Microsoft security bulletins for January.

The paragraph above is taken from the executive summary of the RISK?Team?s weekly INTSUM report.Verizon security product customers should?access the full INTSUM via your portal.
