Lynette Owens, vice president of global consumer education at the cybersecurity firm Trend Micro, said legal action can help bring about change but doesn’t entirely ensure user safety.

In the report, published on 15 December and titled The Near and Far Future of Ransomware Business Models, Trend Micro highlighted 10 potential evolutions of ransomware groups’ TTPs.

"The threat actors not only claimed that they were able to breach the servers of these companies but also threatened to publish their files," wrote Trend Micro researchers, who recently discovered the new malicious campaign.

Cybersecurity services company Trend Micro reiterates the need for organizations to further strengthen their security posture amid rapid digitalization across industries.

Trend Micro security researchers discovered the threat last month. Like earlier, similar versions of the miner that also target Linux operating systems, the code kills competing malware and resources that affect cryptocurrency mining performance.

Researchers at Trend Micro looked at the extent to which robots can be compromised. They found the machines they studied running on outdated software, vulnerable OSes and libraries, weak authentication systems, and default, changeable credentials.

The bi-annual Pwn2Own elite hacking event held in Toronto has come to an end after four days in which 63 zero-day vulnerabilities were successfully exploited. Some 26 hacking teams and individual hackers took part in the event, operated by Trend Micro's Zero-Day Initiative (ZDI).

In addition to joining the Trend Micro Vision One ecosystem partner program, the company has completed the technology integration of its cybersecurity risk validation and exposure management solution with the Trend Micro Vision One XDR platform.

The Pwn2Own hacking event is operated by Trend Micro's Zero-Day Initiative (ZDI), launched in 2005, and sees some of the best hacking teams come together to exploit various devices using previously unknown 'zero-day' vulnerabilities.

AWS Marketplace Partners of the Year recognizes our top partners with significant AWS Marketplace transactions.

Trend Micro has unveiled a new protection deployment model that delivers great value to both security and development teams. Trend Micro identifies threats in minutes and delivers security findings with no performance impact and without removing data from the customer environment.

Trend Micro, a $2 billion security powerhouse that has won AWS Marketplace Global Partner of the Year award, posted 150 percent growth on AWS Marketplace with its partners in 2022 and expects to see another 100 percent-plus growth in 2023, said Trend Micro COO Kevin Simzer.

A wide-ranging international operation by law enforcement agencies in 30 countries aiming to prosecute online fraudsters has resulted in nearly a thousand arrests and a net of $130 million in seized virtual assets.

“In refactoring the Trend Micro Cloud One Workload Security product, the vFunction platform and their expertise enabled us to deliver value to our customers and deploy on AWS four times faster than doing it alone,” says Martin Lavigne, R&D lead, Trend Micro.

Trend Micro’s twice-a-year Cyber Risk Index report shows that respondents in the Asia-Pacific are the most likely to say they think they are somewhat or very likely to be successfully attacked at 89%, followed by respondents in North America (86%), Europe (85%) and Latin/South America (82%).

According to Trend Micro researchers, the threat group targeted mostly organizations in Australia, Japan, Taiwan, Myanmar, and the Philippines.

"The bank customers targeted include account subscribers of seven banks, including some of the most well-known banks located in the country and potentially affecting millions of customers," Trend Micro said in a report published this week.

According to a new Trend Micro report, Earth Longzhi has similar TTP (techniques, tactics, and procedures) as 'Earth Baku,' both considered subgroups of the state-backed hacking group tracked as APT41.

Picus Security has expanded its partnership with Trend Micro to enable Trend Micro Vision One (TMVO) XDR customers to continuously validate their threat detection and response capabilities.

On this week's Industrial Talk we're talking to Jon Clay, VP of Threat Intelligence with Trend Micro about “5 ‘D's' of Cyber Security”. Get the answers to your “Cybersecurity” questions along with Jon's unique insight on the “How” on this Industrial Talk interview!

The cybersecurity space has recently seen rapid growth due to the massive increase in digitalisation, expanding the attack surface. Many organisations have struggled to keep up with the demand for skilled cybersecurity talent.

Using existing codebases also saves time, and making such projects modular allows the tool to be customized for the customer's — read, "attacker's" — needs, says Jon Clay, vice president of threat intelligence at Trend Micro.

The researchers demonstrated that an attacker could cause damage or disruption, they can hijack a machine, or steal valuable intellectual property. Each of these scenarios could have a significant financial impact on an organization.

Greg Young, VP of cybersecurity at Trend Micro, agreed; he added that because IoT and home smart devices are exceptionally vulnerable, “a clear and consumer-focused label is a great idea.”

Trend Micro has formed a committee composed of six executives currently working in the U.S. government as the cybersecurity company targets a 15 percent footprint growth in the federal market.
