Cyber News Rundown: City of Augusta, Georgia falls victim to BlackByte ransomwareNews

Last week, officials for the City of Augusta, Georgia have announced that the recent IT outages were the result of a ransomware attack by the BlackByte group. Shortly after the incident, a 10GB data trove was published to the BlackByte group’s leak site, with options to purchase or remove the data, with differing price tags. Ransomware attacks have been targeting cities with an increasing rate since the start of 2023, and with the pressure to restore normal functionality as quickly as possible, they tend to be highly lucrative victims.Millions of Android devices infected by SpinOk trojanResearchers have been tracking a new Android trojan, dubbed SpinOk, that can easily embed itself in innocuous apps and track a variety of information that is being sent or received by the device. The SpinOk module also offers several features that claim to provide services to the user but begins transmitting device data immediately and can hide its network activity while avoiding proxy settings.

Honda API flaws exposed customer data, dealer panels, internal docs

June 7, 2023 By Bill Toulas Honda's e-commerce platform for power equipment, marine, lawn & garden, was vulnerable to unauthorized access by anyone due to API flaws that allow password reset for any account.Honda is a Japanese manufacturer of automobiles, motorcycles, and power equipment. In this case, only the latter division is impacted, so owners of Honda cars or motorcycles aren't affected.The security gap in Honda's systems was discovered by a security researcher using the pseudonym ‘Eaton Works,' who is the same that breached Toyota's supplier portal a few months back, leveraging similar vulnerabilities.For Honda, Eaton Works exploited a password reset API to reset the password of valuable accounts and then enjoy unrestricted admin-level data access on the firm's network. >> Full Article <<

How a Layered Security Approach Can Minimize Email ThreatsBlog

Attackers frequently adapted their email-based techniques throughout 2022, cycling through new and old tactics in the hopes of evading human and cybersecurity measures. Data from the 2022 OpenText Cybersecurity Threat Report showed a 1,122% increase in phishing in the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021. Not surprising, there is no sign of a slowdown as email continues to be a primary attack vector in 2023.An email attack has many ramifications, including reputational damage, compliance violations, fines and downtime - all of which can result in loss of revenue, customers and even business closure. According to IBM, the average cost of a data breach in the United States is $9.44 million -$4.35 million globally. When you consider that the average small and medium business makes $2.1 million per year, you see that most SMBs are unable to sustain a breach.As if the evolving threat landscape wasn’t enough, staffing issues, due in part to a complex economic environment, mean organization

Deactivating a device and reclaiming the license - Webroot Home

Hi, Ever since the old console is not accessible to new/renewed licenses, all the KB’s I found about this are referring to the old (and beloved) console, where we had the “Deactivate” button.The issue I’m facing now is that a device is still showing attached to the license key, but I don’t know how to deactivate it. If I uninstall, will it deactivate? But what if I can’t uninstall as this device has issues booting the OS (hard drive crashed). What can I do?So to summarize the questions for the HOME version of Webroot:When I uninstall a device from the device itself (Windows/macOS) → does it deactivate and reclaim the license also in the console? How can I deactivate and reclaim the license if a device is not bootable anymore ?Thanks,Idan.

Deactivating old devices

I made the mistake of wiping my old computer clean without uninstalling software like Webroot. Back in the day you could login to your account and deactivate old computers when you buy a new computer. This doesn’t seem to be possible anymore. Can anyone tell me a way to do this? I’ve already followed the KBarticle link from 6 years ago in an old post and it’s no longer relevant.

Got a Question?

How to remove devices from my webroot account without having access to the management console that everyone keeps talking about?

Hello I seem to be either an idiot or simply am technologically illiterate, but what I want to know is there a way to remove devices from my webroot account without the management console or contacting support? I know, seems impossible, but all I want to know is if its safe to install webroot secureanywhere on my 2 Windows partitions or is there something I have to do before I can. I currently do not have access to the Windows Installations that had webroot installed and had to reinstall both Windows Operating Systems due to problems with the boot loader but that also removed my ability to uninstall webroot before handif there is a way please let me know. if I am just an idiot or technically illiterate please tell me (Please don’t).Regards,Kevin M.
