Wipro Attackers Have Operated Under the Radar for Years
#1
Quote:New details are emerging in the April attack on systems consulting behemoth Wipro, which saw its network hacked and used for mounting attacks on a dozen of its customers. In a fresh analysis of the indicators of compromise (IOCs), Flashpoint analysts said that the cyberattackers have actually been operating in the shadows for some time – and that the Wipro incident is only its latest effort.
 
Researchers also uncovered that the adversaries used a range of legitimate security applications during the campaign; and, that the threat group appears to have been looking to carry out mass gift card fraud.
 
In the attack, the adversaries appeared to compromise the company’s email server via a successful phishing attempt, before pivoting to reach out to partner networks. The company represents a target-rich environment for this kind of supply-chain attack: It works with tens of thousands of companies, including Fortune 500 clients, on technology outsourcing projects around the globe (last year passing $8 billion in annual run rate).

“We detected a potentially abnormal activity in a few employee accounts on our network due to an advanced phishing campaign,” the company said in a media statement at the time. “Upon learning of the incident, we promptly began an investigation, identified the affected users and took remedial steps to contain and mitigate any potential impact.”
