Peretas yang disponsori oleh Rusia dan Korea Utara menargetkan peneliti COVID-19

November 18, 2020 by Winnie the Pooh

Peretas yang disponsori oleh pemerintah Rusia dan Korea Utara telah menargetkan perusahaan yang terlibat langsung dalam penelitian vaksin dan perawatan untuk COVID-19, dan dalam beberapa kasus, serangan telah berhasil, kata Microsoft pada hari Jumat.

Secara keseluruhan, ada tujuh perusahaan terkemuka yang menjadi target, kata Wakil Presiden Perusahaan Microsoft untuk Keamanan & Kepercayaan Pelanggan Tom Burt. 7 perusahaan tersebut termasuk pembuat vaksin dengan vaksin COVID-19 dalam berbagai tahap uji klinis, organisasi penelitian klinis yang terlibat dalam uji coba, dan pengembang uji COVID-19.

Yang juga menjadi sasaran adalah organisasi dengan kontrak atau investasi dari lembaga pemerintah di seluruh dunia untuk pekerjaan terkait COVID-19. Sasarannya berada di AS, Kanada, Prancis, India, dan Korea Selatan.

Salah satu kelompok penyerang yang terlibat adalah Strontium, sebutan Microsoft untuk peretas yang disponsori oleh pemerintah Rusia. Mereka menggunakan password spraying dan serangan login brute force yang membombardir server dengan sejumlah besar kredensial dengan harapan dapat menebak yang benar.

Dua kelompok lain — dijuluki Zinc dan Cerium — bekerja atas nama pemerintah Korea Utara. Keduanya menggunakan email spear phishing, dengan email dari perekrut pekerjaan fabrikasi Zinc dan email dari Cerium yang menyamar sebagai perwakilan dari Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO).

Serangan lain, kata Burt, menargetkan rumah sakit di Republik Ceko, Prancis, Spanyol, Thailand, dan AS. Pada bulan September, seorang pasien meninggal setelah serangan ransomware mengalihkannya ke rumah sakit terpencil di Jerman.
