13 Ransomwared
Every manager’s worst nightmare, a complete shutdown of the company due to a cyber-attack known as ransomware. In this book Erik Westhovens and Mike Jansen describe a fictionalized scenario for FiveStar Inc.
where management scrambles to deal with an infiltrated IT environment while at the same time the hackers cause chaos and confusion to maximize fear, to get their victim to pay the ransom.
All events described are based on real world situations and follow the twelve steps of the Advanced Persistent Threat Lifecycle model, while also paying attention to some of the techniques hackers employ to gain entrance and persistence.
13 Ransomwared: With your back against the wall
“Just wondering what your thoughts are on our progress in the Aristotrans environment. Do you think we can hit them before Halloween?”
“Maybe,” Vasily said. “I spoke to Boris and your Lugol and Putler. They are not one hundred percent certain. So maybe we should postpone it until December. Christmas time is always the best time for this kind of operation.”
This time the target is Aristotrans, a world class supply-chain enterprise with distribution centers worldwide, facing a ruthless team of hackers, spooks, moles and the neverending challenges of a corporate IT environment versus the needs of the business.
The authors describe a tale of potentials, with ample warnings given, but also ways to prevent or mitigate attacks that occur.
The shadow of AI: Between innovation and cyberthreat
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has evolved at an astonishing pace, transitioning from futuristic concepts to an integral part of our daily lives. It powers search engines, manages our smart homes, aids in medical diagnoses, and strengthens our cybersecurity. However, within this technological advancement lies a dark shadow—a complex web of new threats stemming from the very innovations designed to improve our lives. The Shadow of AI: Between Innovation and Cyber Threat explores this dual nature of AI: how it has become both a powerful tool for progress and a dangerous weapon in the hands of malicious actors.
This book delves deeper into the world of AI-driven cyberattacks, where hackers leverage the intelligence and speed of AI to bypass security systems and create unprecedented chaos. At the same time, it uncovers how the same technology is being utilized by defenders to counter these attacks, secure systems, and make our digital world safer. The balance between innovation and threat is delicate, and the lines between what protects us and what endangers us are becoming increasingly blurred.
