Bank Loses $2.4M to Russian Hackers in Two Targeted Attacks"},"content":{"rendered":"<h4>Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me&#8230;<\/h4>\n<p>In May of 2016, an employee at\u00a0The National Bank of Blacksburg\u00a0fell victim to a targeted phishing email.\u00a0 It was this single email that led to a malware infection on not only that user&#8217;s computer but a secondary workstation as well.\u00a0 The secondary computer had access to the bank&#8217;s STAR Network system.\u00a0 This system is in charge of all debit card transactions, including pin\u00a0numbers, daily withdrawal limits, as well as anti-theft and anti-fraud parameters.\u00a0 Equipped\u00a0with access to this system, hackers were able to alter all of these components to maximize their benefit.\u00a0 Over a three day period, the cyber criminals were able to steal more than $569,000 from personal accounts.<\/p>\n<p>Less than eight months later, the hackers struck again.\u00a0 Using a similar attack method, the cyber criminals used another phishing email to target the bank.\u00a0\u00a0This time not only did the intruders regain access to the bank\u2019s STAR Network, they also compromise another workstation that had access to\u00a0Navigator.\u00a0 Navigator is a banking software used to manage credits and debits to customer accounts.\u00a0 Coupling the two software programs allowed for maximum impact to the bank&#8217;s financials.\u00a0 Using Navigator, the hackers fraudulently moved approximately\u00a0$2 million into various accounts.\u00a0 They then used STAR to manipulate maximum withdrawal limits, anti-fraud and anti-theft parameters, and pins to withdrawal over $1.8 million over a two day period.<\/p>\n<h4>But it gets worse&#8230;<\/h4>\n<p>Now, National Bank is suing their cyber security insurance provider, Everest National Insurance Company,\u00a0 for failing to cover the damages.\u00a0 According to <a href=\"https:\/\/krebsonsecurity.com\/2018\/07\/hackers-breached-virginia-bank-twice-in-eight-months-stole-2-4m\/\">Krebs on Security<\/a>, National Bank has two types of cyber security\u00a0policies.\u00a0 The first deemed\u00a0\u201ccomputer and electronic crime\u201d, which had a single loss limit liability of $8 million, with a $125,000 deductible.\u00a0 The second was a &#8220;debit card rider&#8221; which provided coverage for losses which were a direct result from the use of lost, stolen, or altered debit cards or counterfeit cards.\u00a0 This policy has a single loss limit of $50,000, with a $25,000 deductible and an aggregate limit\u00a0of $250,000.<\/p>\n<p>Since both hacks involved fraudulently withdrawing funds with the use of debit cards, they fall under the &#8220;debit card rider&#8221; policy.\u00a0 Meaning the most the bank could get reimbursed would be $225,000 after their deductible has been paid.\u00a0 Now, that is only if they consider both attacks separately.\u00a0 Which they aren&#8217;t doing.<\/p>\n<p>Everest is deeming both intrusions as a single event.\u00a0 It is speculated the two incidents are being combined into one event due to the short timeframe between attacks, as well as both intrusions originating from the same geographical area.\u00a0 Forensic teams have investigated both attacks and determined each originated from Russia.\u00a0 Since the insurance company is considering this as one incident, National Bank is looking at a maximum reimbursement of $25,000 after paying its deductible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me&#8230; In May of 2016, an employee at\u00a0The National Bank of
