In quick succession at the end of May into mid-June, software developer Progress released three advisories that any customers using its popular managed file transfer (MFT) solution MOVEit should immediately update to the latest release. In this time, they were made aware of three critical vulnerabilities, CVE-2023-34362 on May 31, CVE-2023-35036 on June 9, and CVE-2023-35708 on June 15.
In today's increasingly mobile-driven world, securing our digital assets and protecting sensitive information is of paramount importance. To address this need, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently released the latest version of their publication, NIST 800-124 Rev. 2: Guidelines for Managing the Security of Mobile Devices in the Enterprise.
Mobile devices have become indispensable in our modern lives, enabling us to stay connected, access information, and conduct transactions on the go. However, the rise of mobile usage for accessing corporate information is attracting the increased attention of cybercriminals seeking to exploit vulnerabilities and gain unauthorized access to sensitive data.
In recent years, especially with hybrid work, almost everyone uses an iOS or Android device for work. In fact, in a recent survey, Lookout found that 92% of remote workers use their personal laptops or smartphones for work tasks, with 46% of them having saved files onto their devices. Now that employees expect to be productive from anywhere, organizations across all industries have become more relaxed with allowing the use of personal devices with bring-your-own-device (BYOD) programs.
Researchers at the Lookout Threat Lab have discovered a new Android surveillance tool which we attribute with moderate confidence to the Law Enforcement Command of the Islamic Republic of Iran (FARAJA). Named BouldSpy for the “BoulderApplication” class which configures the tool’s command and control (C2), we have been tracking the spyware since March 2020.
