Password cracking is one of the tools that hackers turn to when they can't gain access to an account by other means. Find out how they do it.

In our series of letters from African journalists, the BBC’s weekly The Boss series profiles different types of hackers.

In onze serie brieven van Afrikaanse journalisten worden in de wekelijkse serie The Boss van de BBC verschillende soorten hackers beschreven.

You’ve probably heard about cracking passwords in movies and TV shows, but many people don’t know what the process actually entails. In this article, we will dive in deep and cover all of the different ways that passwords can be cracked, some similar attacks that result in stolen passwords, how stolen passwords can cause damage, and the protective measures that both users and developers can adopt in order to keep their passwords safe. It may seem like an obvious question, but you may have never thought about the role that passwords actually play in your overall security.

Je hebt vast wel eens gehoord over het kraken van wachtwoorden in films en tv-programma's, maar veel mensen weten niet wat het proces eigenlijk inhoudt. In dit artikel duiken we er diep in en behandelen we alle verschillende manieren waarop wachtwoorden kunnen worden gekraakt, enkele vergelijkbare aanvallen die resulteren in gestolen wachtwoorden, hoe gestolen wachtwoorden schade kunnen aanrichten, en de beschermende maatregelen die zowel gebruikers als ontwikkelaars kunnen nemen om hun wachtwoorden veilig te houden. Waar zijn wachtwoorden eigenlijk voor?

How do Hackers Crack Passwords?

Network segmentation is a best practice and when done correctly it improves network security and

The SolarWinds breach has been linked to a massive cyber-attack that has left more than 100 people dead.

De inbreuk bij SolarWinds is in verband gebracht met een grootschalige cyberaanval waarbij meer dan 100 mensen om het leven zijn gekomen.

Every organization is at risk for cyberattacks, and it’s unsettling that the attackers are so good at maximizing the damage to their victims. The time an attacker spends inside a network is referred to as ‘dwell time,’ and it’s measured from the point of intrusion to the point of detection. Long dwell times increase the damage of an attack, often in ways that can’t be measured.

Elke organisatie loopt het risico op cyberaanvallen, en het is verontrustend dat de aanvallers zo goed zijn in het maximaliseren van de schade aan hun slachtoffers. Aanvallers die de bedrijfsverdediging omzeilen, zullen zich zo lang mogelijk in het netwerk verbergen, zelfs als ze van plan zijn een ransomware-aanval uit te voeren. Lange verblijftijden verhogen de schade van een aanval, vaak op een manier die niet kan worden gemeten.

Every organization is at risk for cyberattacks, and it’s unsettling that the attackers are so good at maximizing the damage to their victims. Their tactics are increasingly sophisticated and often involve some type of email attack, bot attack, or even just old-school social engineering. Attackers who bypass company defenses will hide inside the network as long as possible, even if they’re planning to launch a ransomware attack. They use this time to explore the network, steal data and user credentials, destroy backups, and do anything else they can do to set themselves up for future attacks.

The time an attacker spends inside a network is referred to as ‘dwell time,’ and it’s measured from the point of intrusion to the point of detection. Long dwell times increase the damage of an attack, often in ways that can’t be measured. The SolarWinds breach is the perfect example of this. The intruders entered the network in early 2019 and were not discovered until December 2020. The exact number of victims and costs associated with the attack remain unknown.

Network segmentation is one of the easiest and most effective ways to reduce dwell time. For those of you not familiar with this practice, it’s just like it sounds: You divide your network into different sections (segments) and you ‘lock the doors’ between them.

You’ve seen this concept at work in high-security buildings that restrict access to certain parts of the facility to people who have been granted permission to enter that restricted section. This keeps people from wandering around and exploring areas that are critical to operations or contain sensitive information. Segmentation does something similar for your network.

There are immediate security benefits to separating your network into multiple contained segments:
• Segmentation creates a smaller attack surface within the network. An intruder will be limited to the segment that was breached. The attacker can go no further unless they successfully breach another segment. Isolating your mission-critical servers and data can prevent an intruder from gaining access to your resources through a neglected printer or rogue smart device.
• Segmentation makes it easier to detect and isolate security incidents. The division between the segments helps contain the spread of malware and viruses. It limits the areas where the intruder can hide, and it can improve the efficiency of security monitoring.

There are non-security benefits as well. For example, POS devices fall under strict compliance rules. Assigning POS devices their own segment helps companies by limiting the cardholder data environment (CDE) and reducing the scope of PCI DSS compliance.

Segmentation also improves network performance by separating traffic. A good example of improving both security and performance is the separation of a public network from private resources. A shopping center or school campus that offers free wireless access to guests would want that traffic separated from the line-of-business applications. This keeps the potential traffic congestion of public wireless access isolated to assigned segments.

Gartner analysts have warned against over-segmentation, which can complicate the management and use of the network. One Gartner study found that over 70% of segmentation projects had to be re-architected because the segmentation made it too difficult for authorized users to access what they needed to perform their work.

“A principle of network segmentation is to group like resources together, to minimize security overhead: Build a fence around the car park, not a fence and gate around every car. ~Gartner”

Pursuing a SOC 2 audit is a multi-step process. This blog clarifies the SOC 2 audit process and explains the role of SOC 2 auditors and compliance software.

When it comes to cybersecurity, companies need to demonstrate their ability to protect data and information.

Als het om cyberbeveiliging gaat, moeten bedrijven aantonen dat zij in staat zijn gegevens en informatie te beschermen.

Pursuing a SOC 2 audit is a multi-step process, which can seem confusing at first glance given the fact that there are vendors that provide compliance software, and other vendors who are themselves certified SOC 2 auditors.

When and How to Use SOC 2 Software ToolsThere are multiple steps to completing a SOC 2 audit.

Enter, SOC 2 (Service Organization Control 2), een populaire audit die getuigt van het vermogen van een bedrijf om gegevens en informatie te beschermen. Het nastreven van een SOC 2-audit is een proces dat uit verschillende stappen bestaat, wat op het eerste gezicht verwarrend kan lijken, gezien het feit dat er verkopers zijn die nalevingssoftware leveren, en andere verkopers die zelf gecertificeerde SOC 2-auditors zijn. Wanneer en hoe SOC 2-softwaretools gebruikenEr zijn verschillende stappen om een SOC 2-audit te voltooien.

Data breaches and ransomware attacks continue to dominate the news cycle. To protect data, and position themselves favorably among prospects and customers, companies need to demonstrate a commitment to cybersecurity.

Pursuing a SOC 2 audit is a multi-step process, which can seem confusing at first glance given the fact that there are vendors that provide compliance software, and other vendors who are themselves certified SOC 2 auditors.

This blog will clarify the SOC 2 audit process, as well as explain the role of SOC 2 auditors and compliance software.

When and How to Use SOC 2 Software Tools

There are multiple steps to completing a SOC 2 audit. Many companies start with a readiness/gap assessment, which is the process of reviewing existing controls in place and identifying those that need to be improved or implemented. This process can be executed via an audit consultant, or through specialized software tools that help simplify this process (like A-SCEND).

Compliance software tools typically provide automated workflows and compliance templates, comparing your existing controls against the controls within a selected compliance framework — which, in this case, would be the SOC 2 framework.

Typically, this software allows you to visualize progress toward compliance goals, assign tasks related to evidence collection or policy updates, and collaborate all in one dashboard. Software tools provide a simple way to understand the framework requirements, assess them against your existing policies and procedures, and manage the process of updating policies. While these tools help to better prepare for an audit and streamline the assessment process, an experienced auditor is still a critical component of compliance.

When and How to Use SOC 2 Auditors

Software tools can only take you so far with SOC 2. They can help prepare a company for a SOC 2 audit, but not complete the audit itself. When the actual audit takes place, companies must turn to a SOC auditor.

SOC 2 audits are regulated by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and must be completed by an external auditor from a licensed CPA firm. This is the only way a company can receive an official SOC 2 report, whether it’s a Type 1 or Type 2 report.

An official SOC 2 report is valid for one year following the date the report was issued. Future annual audits must also be completed by an external auditor from a licensed CPA firm.

If your organization plans to use software to prepare for an audit, it’s helpful to work with a software partner who can also conduct the official audit (as a certified CPA) because it provides an added layer of convenience throughout the SOC 2 process and results in a reputable report. 



Organizations need to go beyond the data collection by their compliance software tool and conduct further due diligence, such as observations and walkthroughs (conversations) between the audit team and the client. SOC 2 auditors may also find that they need additional data or evidence necessary to validate the design and operating effectiveness of a complete control set. When you use the same company for a technology-enabled audit, and a SOC 2 report, the software is designed to request all audit materials needed, including manually operated controls and supporting evidence. In this convenient scenario, you can save time, resources, and money.

In our series of letters from African journalists, novelist and writer Jonathan Marcus looks at how security issues affect crypto-wallets.

In onze reeks brieven van Afrikaanse journalisten bekijkt romanschrijver en schrijver Jonathan Marcus hoe veiligheidskwesties crypto-wallets beïnvloeden.

The idea of owning a one-of-a-kind object even in the digital world is very attractive. But artists and creatives of all types, be it painting and graphics, music, photography, and even video can now create and sell unique works that cannot be replicated. Besides security issues, they are being used by criminals for money laundering of cryptocurrency, and I do not see the value in something that will immediately become worthless when the internet apocalypse happens and your NFT wallet is no longer accessible.

Het idee is niet nieuw, aangezien het kopen van unieke voorwerpen in games al tientallen jaren bestaat. Maar kunstenaars en creatieven van alle soorten, of het nu gaat om schilderen en grafiek, muziek, fotografie, en zelfs video, kunnen nu unieke werken maken en verkopen die niet kunnen worden nagemaakt. Naast beveiligingsproblemen worden ze door criminelen gebruikt voor het witwassen van cryptocurrency, en ik zie de waarde niet in van iets dat onmiddellijk waardeloos wordt als de internetapocalyps gebeurt en je NFT wallet niet meer toegankelijk is.

NFTs have become very popular with collectors and are more ubiquitous every day. The idea of owning a one-of-a-kind object even in the digital world is very attractive. The idea is not new as buying unique items inside games has been around for decades. But artists and creatives of all types, be it painting and graphics, music, photography, and even video can now create and sell unique works that cannot be replicated.

First, I need to disclose I am not a huge fan of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). Besides security issues, they are being used by criminals for money laundering of cryptocurrency, and I do not see the value in something that will immediately become worthless when the internet apocalypse happens and your NFT wallet is no longer accessible. But that is just me. Until that happens let’s talk about the security issues. Security issues include phishing scams to access crypto-wallets and steal NFTs, and selling counterfeit items, but the issue I want to discuss is using NFTs to distribute malware.

VIA, a company that specializes in solutions for infrastructure and government, reported that they discovered instances of malware being injected into NFTs and demonstrated how easy it is. It makes sense as NFTs are normally media files that have historically been used to inject code or embed malicious software that runs when open. All being an NFT does is verify that it is the only file of its kind using blockchain. But it does nothing to verify the safety of the file. VIA has even created an open-source tool to scan NFTs to look for malicious code or software in the file.

So, the next time you spend thousands of dollars on an NFT, make sure, even if it comes from a reputable vendor, to scan it before opening it and hope there is a return policy if you find something unexpected. Otherwise, your crypto wallet might have a surprise for you once the internet apocalypse ends.

Door Randy Reiter CEO van Don't Be BreachedIn april 2022 meldde Microsoft dat kwetsbaarheden in zijn Azure Database voor PostgreSQL hackers toegang konden verschaffen tot de databases van andere klanten nadat ze de authenticatie hadden omzeild. Volgens Microsoft heeft zijn analyse geen aanwijzingen opgeleverd dat aanvallers de kwetsbaarheden hebben misbruikt om toegang te krijgen tot klantengegevens. Wiz zei dat Microsoft zijn onderzoekers een bounty van 40.000 dollar heeft toegekend - het bedrag kan worden gezien als een bevestiging van de ernst van de kwetsbaarheid.

By Randy Reiter CEO of Don’t Be Breached

April, 2022 Microsoft reported that vulnerabilities in its Azure Database for PostgreSQL could have let Hackers gain access to other customers’ databases after bypassing authentication. “By exploiting an elevated permissions bug in the Flexible Server authentication process for a replication user, a malicious user could leverage an improperly anchored regular expression to bypass authentication to gain access to other customers’ databases” the Microsoft Security Response Center reported.

The cloud security firm Wiz’s research team discovered the security vulnerabilities. An attacker could create a full copy of a target database in Azure PostgreSQL [Flexible Server], essentially exfiltrating all the information stored in the database, says Ami Luttwak, co-founder and CTO at Wiz.

Microsoft said it mitigated the issue on Jan. 13, 2022, less than 48 hours after Wiz had notified it of the issue. Microsoft said its analysis showed no evidence of attackers having exploited the vulnerabilities to access customer data. Wiz said Microsoft awarded its researchers a $40,000 bug bounty — the amount can be viewed as confirmation of the vulnerability’s severity.

How to Have Exploited the Database Vulnerability

As explained by Microsoft, the Wiz researchers went through the following steps to gain elevated privileges and remote code execution, which allowed them to bypass cross-account authentication using a forged certificate and access other customers’ databases:
• Retrieve the target’s common name from the Certificate Transparency feed.
• Find the target’s Azure region by resolving the database domain name and matching it to one of Azure’s public IP ranges.
• Create an attacker-controlled database in the target’s Azure region.
• Exploit vulnerability #1 on the attacker-controlled instance to escalate privileges and gain code execution.
• Scan the subnet for the target instance and exploit vulnerability #2 to gain read access!

How to Prevent Data Exfiltration and Data Breaches in Todays Complex Environment

Multiple layers of data protection are required today to prevent Data Exfiltration and Data Breaches. In 2020 the DHS, Department of State, U.S. Marine Corps and the Missile Defense Agency recognized this and all issued requests for proposals (RFP) for network full packet data capture for Deep Packet Inspection analysis (DPI) of network traffic. This is an important step forward protecting confidential database data and organization information.

Zero-day vulnerabilities that allow hackers to gain system privileges are a major threat to all organizations encrypted and unencrypted confidential data. Confidential data includes: credit card, tax ID, medical, social media, corporate, manufacturing, trade secrets, law enforcement, defense, homeland security, power grid and public utility data. This confidential data is almost always stored in DB2, Informix, MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL and SAP Sybase databases.

How to Stop Data Exfiltration and Data Breaches with Deep Packet Inspection

Protecting encrypted and unencrypted confidential database data is much more than securing databases, operating systems, applications and the network perimeter against Hackers, Rogue Insiders and Supply Chain Attacks.

Non-intrusive network sniffing technology can perform a real-time Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) of 100% the database activity from a network tap or proxy server with no impact on the database servers. The database SQL activity is very predictable. Database servers servicing 1,000 to 10,000 end-users typically process daily 2,000 to 10,000 unique queries or SQL commands that run millions of times a day. Deep Packet Analysis does not require logging into the monitored networks, servers or databases. This approach can provide CISOs with what they can rarely achieve. Total visibility into the database activity 24×7 and 100% protection of confidential database data.

Advanced SQL Behavioral Analysis of 100% of the real-time database SQL packets can learn what the normal database activity is. Now the database query and SQL activity can be non-intrusively monitored in real-time with DPI and non-normal SQL activity immediately pinpointed. This approach is inexpensive to setup and has a low cost of operation. Now non-normal database activity from Hackers, Rogue Insiders or and Supply Chain Attacks can be detected in a few milli seconds. The Security Team can be immediately notified and the Hacker session terminated so that confidential database data is not stolen, ransomed or sold on the Dark Web.

Sea-Doo maker BRP Inc. says work at its factories remains at a standstill following a cyberattack it reported Monday. Spokeswoman Biliana Necheva says in

A Canadian manufacturing company says it has been forced to freeze its operations following a cyber attack.

Een Canadees productiebedrijf zegt dat het gedwongen is zijn activiteiten te bevriezen na een cyberaanval.

Sea-Doo maker BRP Inc. says work at its factories remains at a standstill following a cyberattack it reported Monday. Spokeswoman Biliana Necheva says in an email operations have not resumed more than 48 hours after they were halted as a cautionary measure. It comes at a tough time for BRP, as supply chain woes weighed on sales in its first quarter, with more input obstacles expected on the powersport vehicle maker’s path for the rest of the year.

Woordvoerster Biliana Necheva zegt in een e-mail dat de operaties meer dan 48 uur nadat ze uit voorzorg waren stopgezet, nog niet zijn hervat. Dit komt op een moeilijk moment voor BRP, aangezien de problemen met de toeleveringsketen de verkoop in het eerste kwartaal hebben gedrukt. Voor de rest van het jaar worden nog meer invoerbelemmeringen verwacht voor de fabrikant van motorvoertuigen.

Sea-Doo maker BRP Inc. says work at its factories remains at a standstill following a cyberattack it reported Monday.

Spokeswoman Biliana Necheva says in an email operations have not resumed more than 48 hours after they were halted as a cautionary measure.

The Quebec-based company, which manufactures Ski-Doos and off-road vehicles, announced Monday morning it was the target of “malicious cybersecurity activity” and took “immediate measures to contain the situation.”

Deploying its own information technology staff, BRP also said it hired cybersecurity experts to help secure its systems and support an internal investigation.

The company said its freeze on operations could delay some transactions with customers and suppliers.

It comes at a tough time for BRP, as supply chain woes weighed on sales in its first quarter, with more input obstacles expected on the powersport vehicle maker’s path for the rest of the year.

Spun off from Bombardier Inc. in 2003, BRP employs nearly 20,000 workers, mainly at manufacturing and distribution sites in Mexico, Canada, Austria, the United States, Finland and Australia. Its products are sold in more than 120 countries.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Aug. 11, 2022.
