to a well-known program, such as Adobe. \u00a0Once the victims downloaded the update, the hackers would steal information from their laptop and use it to compromise the company.<\/p>\n<p>DarkHotel has been on hiatus for a few years, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleepingcomputer.com\/news\/security\/new-version-of-darkhotel-malware-spotted-going-after-political-figures\/\">new evidence <\/a>suggests they&#8217;re back with a new attack approach. \u00a0Instead of attempting to execute malicious &#8220;update&#8221; attacks targeted towards company executives, the group is now targeting political officials with spear-phishing email attacks. \u00a0Within the email is a malicious executable file. \u00a0Upon clicking the file, a document is opened with a list of email addresses for various organizations located in North Korea. \u00a0The document is merely a decoy for the backdoor that is being left open for the hackers to gain access to additional information.<\/p>\n<h3>Not a New Approach<\/h3>\n<p>Although this is a new approach for the DarkHotel group, several other hacking entities have been targeting individuals with malicious emails for years. \u00a0Over the years, phishing scams have been a highly successful attack method for cyber criminals. \u00a0According to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.knowbe4.com\/ceo-fraud-attacks-were-far-more-lucrative-than-ransomware-over-the-past-3-years\">KnowBe4<\/a>, Cisco released a report stating over the last three years, phishing scams have grossed revenues of $5.3 billion. \u00a0That&#8217;s nothing to shake a stick at. \u00a0Ransomware, which has been a hot topic lately has &#8220;only&#8221; grossed $1 billion in the last three years.<\/p>\n<h3>Tips to Stay Safe<\/h3>\n<p>It is important all individuals are aware of the cyber threats they&#8217;re facing on a daily basis. \u00a0Although ransomware has become a trending topic, it is not the only threat users face. \u00a0To avoid being the next victim, PC Matic recommends users take the following steps,<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Complete a cyber security training course. \u00a0The more users know about today&#8217;s threats, the less likely they are to be the next victim.<\/li>\n<li>Ensure operating systems are up to date. \u00a0New updates come out frequently for operating systems. \u00a0By confirming users have updated their systems, they know all known security vulnerabilities have been patched.<\/li>\n<li>Update all programs. \u00a0This means everything that is being used &#8212; programs for company use, recreational use, and security solutions. \u00a0Leaving your programs outdated is essentially leaving a backdoor open for hackers. \u00a0Don&#8217;t do it.<\/li>\n<li>Implement a security solution that uses application whitelisting as its primary method of malware detection. \u00a0If users were running <a href=\"https:\/\/cart.pcpitstop.com\/go.asp?id=504631\">PC Matic<\/a>, and the DarkHotel group attempted to run the malicious executable file, it would not work. \u00a0This is because the malicious file would be categorized as &#8220;unknown&#8221;. \u00a0With application whitelisting, unknown files are blocked from executing until they can be tested and proven safe. \u00a0With this example, testing would be done and it would be found the file was malicious. \u00a0Therefore, it would not be allowed to run.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DarkHotel Hackers Find New Ways to Trick Users According to BleepingComputer,\u00a0an old hacking group deemed DarkHotel is back with a few new tricks up their sleeves. \u00a0The group first began targeting high level executives in 2011. \u00a0The cyber criminals would wait for these individuals to connect to a hotel&#8217;s WiFi and trick them into downloading [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":54,"featured_media":56197,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[183],"tags":[5169,4704,280,4363,484],"class_list":["post-57538","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tips","tag-ceo-fraud","tag-hackers","tag-phishing","tag-ransomware","tag-spear-phishing"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Old Hackers Bring New Tricks<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A hacking group, DarkHotel, has been around for years.
