What is driving the increase in cyber reconnaissance?
The increase in cyber reconnaissance is primarily driven by the deployment of automated scanning tools, which have seen a 16.7% rise globally in 2024. This surge has resulted in billions of scan attempts each month, with attackers focusing on mapping exposed services and critical infrastructures. Tools like SIPVicious are being weaponized to identify vulnerabilities before patches can be applied, indicating a shift in adversary strategy towards more proactive reconnaissance.
How are adversaries utilizing the darknet for cyberattacks?
Cybercriminals are increasingly using the darknet as a marketplace for resources that facilitate large-scale attacks. This includes trading stolen credentials, corporate access, and exploit kits. In 2024, over 100 billion records were shared in underground forums, marking a 42% increase from the previous year. The darknet has transformed into a supply chain for cybercrime, allowing even less skilled attackers to access tools and information necessary for executing sophisticated attacks.
What role does AI play in modern cybercrime?
AI is reshaping the landscape of cybercrime by enabling attackers to automate various aspects of their operations. Tools like FraudGPT and BlackmailerV3 allow for the creation of convincing phishing emails and extortion messages, while AI-generated phishing pages mimic legitimate sites to steal credentials. The use of AI lowers the barrier to entry for cybercriminals, making it easier for them to execute attacks with greater efficiency and effectiveness.
