CRYPTOCURRENCIES AND CYBERCRIME: A CRITICAL INTERMINGLING

April 26, 2024 By Pierluigi Paganini As cryptocurrencies have grown in popularity, there has also been growing concern about cybercrime involvement in this sectorCryptocurrencies have revolutionized the financial world, offering new investment opportunities and decentralized transactions. However, as cryptocurrencies have grown in popularity, there has also been growing concern about cybercrime involvement in this sector.The natural ambiguity of cryptocurrenciesCryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin, are decentralized and pseudonymous, which makes them a breeding ground for criminal activities. Indeed, while anonymity provides privacy and security for transactions, it can also be exploited by criminals for illicit activities, such as money laundering, drug trafficking, illegal arms sales, and terrorist financing. Cybercrime is no longer limited to simple cyberattacks, but has evolved into a form of organized crime that exploits cryptocurrencies for activities such as money laundering and corru

Fake job interviews target developers with new Python backdoor

April 26, 2024 By Bill Toulas A new campaign tracked as “Dev Popper” is targeting software developers with fake job interviews in an attempt to trick them into installing a Python remote access trojan (RAT).The developers are asked to perform tasks supposedly related to the interview, like downloading and running code from GitHub, in an effort to make the entire process appear legitimate.However, the threat actor's goal is make their targets download malicious software that gathers system information and enables remote access to the host.According to Securonix analysts, the campaign is likely orchestrated by North Korean threat actors based on the observed tactics. The connections are not strong enough for attribution, though. >> Full Article <<

Can we audit device per sites if Web Threat Shield extension for Browser is enabled or disabled?

Hi Webroot Team, Newbie here. Can we audit device per sites if Web Threat Shield extension for Browser is enabled or disabled? Also, if the Web Threat Shield extension is disabled from a device with Webroot client program, does it mean that if the User accessed a malicious site, Webroot would not block it? Thank you.

Is Webroot VPN going away?

Hi All,Curious if Webroot VPN is going away now that SaferVPN is being decommissioned as of Dec 15th, 2023. If readers didn’t know, Webroot VPN is technically NOT an in house product, but rather a reskinned/rebranded version of SaferVPN, but added some of their BrightCloud tech to it. I received a notice today that SaferVPN is recommending IPVanish and the website is saying they’ve joined with IPVanish. So does this mean, the Webroot VPN will be changing their product to update it’s look and feel of IPVanish? CuriousRegardsJohn H

Deprecation of old Endpoint Management Console

Good day,I’m curious if anybody can shed any insight on the deprecation of the old Endpoint Protection Console and what we are to expect in terms of changes as of November 28th? I have reviewed training videos and understand where to perform most functions using the new console and entities.Please understand that we have hundreds of a sites listed in our consoles and I have reviewed the videos.Currently if I wish to go to the console and perform work on a site, I can go to the Sites list and I can search and find the site wether that is ABC company or XYZ, then I can click the little pop out or go to Endpoint Protection and click the “Go to Endpoint Protection Console” and I can access the old console.So what happens when the existing console is deprecated? will this button go away? Will there be a new button that will jump us to the specific site in Entities?There are also some logs areas that I’m suspect will no longer be available.Currently I can see which users accessed a site in

Webroot Security Awareness Training Platform Throwing a 500 Error

Hello all!I am a cybersecurity analyst for an MSP and I am in charge of the Security Awareness Training program. I have been getting this error when trying to access the Webroot SAT platform:{"statusCode":500,"error":"Internal Server Error","message":"An internal server error occurred"}Probably every other day I get this error. It is getting annoying as I have to delay training until this error is resolved. Do you guys have insight as to why this is happening? Your help is much appreciated. Thank you!

Where is the new Console Documented? (6.x version)

I seem to be missing something. I assume I’m just blind.Where in the documentation is the new Business Admin Console documented? We’re now on version 6.7, yet all I can find is documentation for the traditional console.

Webroot® Universal Syslog Connector

Universal syslog connector: Run as Service

I was really excited to see this Application, we use Rapid7 and there was no good way to get this data into IDR. My excitement was quickly diminished immediately after I installed this software. Why create a software that is to redirect logs, and in this case to a SIEM and not make it run as a service? I tested it, right after I set it up, I monitored the service running and as soon as I logged off my admin account the service stopped and I can only assume the logging stopped as well. Is there anyway to run this as a service? I really don’t need to see the Scrolling CLI, that feature is pretty much pointless.
