The backdoor and the Buhtrap encoder were distributed using Yandex.Direct

Submitted by

To target a cyberattack on accountants, you can use work papers that they search for on the web. This is how a cybergroup has been operating in the past few months, distributing the well-known Buhtrap and RTM backdoors, as well as encryption and software for stealing cryptocurrencies. Most targets are located in Russia. The attack was implemented by placing malicious ads in Yandex.Direct. Potential victims went to a website where […]

[Translation] Envoy threading model

Submitted by

Translation of the article: Envoy threading model - https://blog.envoyproxy.io/envoy-threading-model-a8d44b922310 This article seemed quite interesting to me, and since Envoy is most often used as part of "istio" or simply as "ingress controller" kubernetes, so most people don't have the same direct interaction with it as they would with typical Nginx or Haproxy installations. However, if something breaks, it would be good […]

Submitted by

Imogen Heap, an award-winning, including two Grammy Award-winning, master of recording and electronic music show production, begins her performance. She joins her hands in a certain gesture, which apparently starts the program, then brings an invisible microphone to her lips, setting the repetition intervals with her free hand, after which, with equally invisible sticks, she beats the rhythm on illusory drums. […]

New Article: ASUS ROG Zephyrus S (GX701GX) Review: GeForce RTX 2080 Gaming Laptop on a Diet

Submitted by

In 2017, a review of the ASUS ROG ZEPHYRUS (GX501) laptop was published on our website - it was one of the first models equipped with NVIDIA graphics in the Max-Q design. The laptop received a GeForce GTX 1080 graphics processor and a 4-core Core i7-7700HQ chip, but was thinner than two centimeters. Then I called the appearance of such mobile computers a long-awaited evolution, because [...]

Since the end of last year, we began tracking a new malicious campaign to distribute a banking Trojan. The attackers focused on compromising Russian companies, i.e. corporate users. The malicious campaign was active for at least a year and, in addition to the banking Trojan, the attackers resorted to using various other software tools. These include a special bootloader packaged using NSIS and spyware […]

Uploading a PostgreSQL log from the AWS cloud

The log file update download period is 5 minutes. The log file in AWS is rotated every hour. Tools Used To upload the log file to the host […]

Cyber ​​group RTM specializes in stealing funds from Russian companies

Submitted by

There are several known cyber groups that specialize in stealing funds from Russian companies. We have seen attacks using security loopholes that allow access to the target's network. Once they gain access, attackers study the organization's network structure and deploy their own tools to steal funds. A classic example of this trend is the hacker groups Buhtrap, Cobalt and Corkow. The RTM group to which this […]

Operating Systems: Three Easy Pieces. Part 5: Planning: Multi-Level Feedback Queue (translation)

Submitted by

Introduction to operating systems Hi, Habr! I would like to bring to your attention a series of articles-translations of one interesting literature in my opinion - OSTEP. This material discusses quite deeply the work of unix-like operating systems, namely, work with processes, various schedulers, memory, and other similar components that make up a modern OS. You can see the original of all materials here. […]

Do teams survive after a hackathon?

Submitted by

The benefits of participating in a hackathon are one of those topics that will always be discussed. Each side has its own arguments. Collaboration, hype, team spirit - some say. "And what?" - others answer gloomily and economically. Participation in hackathons, in its cyclical structure, is very similar to one-time acquaintances on Tinder: people get to know each other, find common interests, do business, […]
