And if you’re on the BriForum attendee list, later this week you should be able to hear my north-eastern tones in full when my session is posted.
If you didn’t attend, then you might get to hear them globally in about six months or so :-0 From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Webster Sent: 02 June 2015 21:09 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] Cryptlocker When I spoke at Briforum London a couple of years ago, I had to run some of my session remarks by James. I am glad I did as some of the things we say in American English can be very offensive and very non PC in England. Plus, James had to school me on British slang. If you ever meet James, make sure you have your listening ears on. But you still may not be able to understand a word he says even though he supposedly speaks “English”. ☺ Thanks Webster From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kennedy, Jim Sent: Tuesday, June 02, 2015 2:59 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] Cryptlocker Done.

Exploit kits like Angler, Nuclear and Magnitude are starting to distribute Ransomware more frequently via drive-by download attacks and malicious advertisements on common websites. We’ve had several ransomware incidents in the last few months all due to unpatched systems. Host based detection is limited at best, but one thing I have noticed in all incidents seen is that the malware typically uses hxxp://ipinfo.io/ip<http://ipinfo.io/ip> to determine its public facing IP address. We have created correlation rules that detect users going to this domain via our McAfee ESM SIEM, we then have an alarm that fires when that correlation rule is seen and we can automatically apply an ePO tag to enforce a policy that severely ‘disables’ the system (no R/W to network shares, restricted HTTP/HTTPS going out). Our alarm also e-mails out some key characteristics about the infected machine for easy identification by our IT Service Desk team. Ransomware isn’t going away and it’s going to get worse. We’ve been able to detect these IoC’s and have the issue remediated in under 7 minutes.
