SynacktivNetfilter is composed of 5 main hooks which are specific points in the kernel’s networking stack where packets can be intercepted. This ordering allows different components to process packets in a specific sequence, enabling complex filtering, logging, and NAT operations while ensuring that critical tasks are performed before less urgent ones. By following this example, you can build upon these concepts to develop more sophisticated and specialized tools for your network security needs.....

CSO OnlineZiel dieser koordinierten Infrastruktur ist es, Warnungen und praktikable Erkenntnisse über Grenzen hinweg auszutauschen sowie zu gewährleisten, dass einheitlich auf Cybervorfälle reagiert werden kann. Experten merkten an, dass das Gesetz zwar ein positiver Schritt sei, die EU jedoch nicht bei der regionalen Zusammenarbeit stehen bleiben sollte. Die Zusammenarbeit im Rahmen des Gesetzes als ein einziger Block könnte solche Bemühungen innerhalb der EU straffen und beschleunigen, aber für eine gl....

GBHackers On SecurityIt operates as an Electron or NodeJS application, injecting code into vulnerable apps and communicating with C2 servers. Celestial Stealer, a JavaScript-based information stealer, is packaged as either an Electron application or a standalone NodeJS executable, which employs various anti-analysis techniques, such as obfuscation and runtime checks, to evade detection and hinder analysis. By stealing information from a user’s device, it can steal files containing certain keywords, take screenshots....

GBHackers On SecurityIt is a sophisticated nation-state actor that leverages the infrastructure of other threat actors to conduct stealthy and persistent cyberattacks. While the group’s operations, spanning from late 2022 to mid-2023, involved extensive data exfiltration and potential espionage activities targeting sensitive government information. To mitigate this risk, organizations should implement robust security measures, including a well-tuned EDR solution, monitoring for large data transfers, and considering....
