Ransomware consultants research victims to gather intelligence “EMAIL APPENDER” IMPLANTS MALICIOUS EMAILS DIRECTLY INTO Key Findings Gemini analysts observed a criminal actor advertise in the dark web a new tool called “Email Appender” that can implant malware-infected or tailored phishing emails directly into a target mailbox.

The software poses RANSOMWARE - THE NEW COST OF BUSINESS - GEMINI ADVISORY Key Findings Over the last few years, the threat of ransomware attacks has made headlines not only for security practitioners, but also across the mainstream media.

Cybercriminals use anti-fingerprinting tools FSB TAKES DOWN TOP-TIER MARKETPLACE, ARRESTS ADMINS Key Findings Russian media reported that the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) arrested 30 members of a hacker ring on March 20, 2020.

Demand for CNP records continued to increase, demand for CP records dropped, and new Magecart attacks, scam shops, and travel fraud schemes reacted to changing conditions under COVID-19. CARDING IN THE TIME OF COVID: ILLICIT ANTIDETECT PLATFORMS Key Findings While cybercrime has dramatically increased in the past several years, Card Not Present (CNP) fraud, in particular, has become far more prolific.

Cybercriminals use anti-fingerprinting tools USE CASES - GEMINI ADVISORY Use case. In early 2018, Gemini’s undercover agents received intelligence of a criminal who was soliciting help from a hacker to help him compromise over a dozen prominent international law firms. Understanding the sensitivity of the matter, our experts contacted the person directly and obtained the names of potential victims. “EMAIL APPENDER” IMPLANTS MALICIOUS EMAILS DIRECTLY INTO Key Findings Gemini analysts observed a criminal actor advertise in the dark web a new tool called “Email Appender” that can implant malware-infected or tailored phishing emails directly into a target mailbox.
