De prijzen op de cryptomarkt zijn flink naar beneden gekletterd. Bitcoin verloor meer dan 10% sinds vorige week, en bij veel altcoins is de schade nog groter. Na een periode van zijwaartse beweging heeft de markt eindelijk een richting gekozen: naar beneden. Voor nieuwe beleggers kan dit schrikken zijn, maar ook in stijgende markten maakt Bitcoin soms dit soort duikvluchten, tot wel 30% vanaf de top. Bij ByBit werd afgelopen vrijdagmiddag voor 1,5 miljard aan Ethereum geroofd. Daarmee was het direct de grootste cryptohack ooit, in dollars gemeten. Tijdens een routine-transactie lukte het de hackers om ByBit te foppen. De ondertekenaars van de transactie kregen precies te zien wat ze verwachtten, maar onder de motorkap hadden de hackers hun eigen transactie verstopt. Gelukkig lijkt de exchange de klap op te kunnen vangen. Met aan zekerheid grenzende waarschijnlijkheid kunnen we de Noord-Koreaanse Lazarus Group aanwijzen als dader. Dat zijn de beruchte staatshackers die inmiddels een hele waslijst aan slachtoffers hebben gemaakt. Bijvoorbeeld de Indiase exchange WazirX, crypto game Axie Infinity, maar ook de hack van Sony in 2014, het WannaCry schandaal en een aanval op de centrale bank van Bangladesh. Het vervelende aan de Lazarus Group is dat ze geen haast hebben met het witwassen van hun tegoeden en niet open staan voor onderhandeling. ByBit gaat die tegoeden niet meer terugzien. De Amerikaanse beurswaakhond SEC laat ondertussen zijn rechtzaken tegen Coinbase en Uniswap varen. Deze twee rechtszaken gingen over het illegaal verhandelen van effecten. Bij Coinbase ging het om een grote exchange die tegen de regels van de SEC in allerlei crypto-effecten op hun platform heeft genoteerd. Maar er zijn helemaal geen duidelijke regels op dit gebied. Uniswap is het boegbeeld als we het hebben over decentrale exchanges. Daar zitten ontwikkelaars achter die een bedrijf vormen, en daar voerde de SEC een rechtszaak tegen. Die rechtszaak was een behoorlijke klap, omdat tot dat moment werd gedacht dat de decentrale wereld onaangeraakt zou blijven. UniSwap zelf noemt het een "enorme overwinning voor decentralized finance" en bevestigt dat deze technologie altijd aan de goede kant van de wet heeft gestaan. Het congres beweegt niet heel rap met het maken van duidelijke regels, maar de beginnetjes zijn er. De houding van de beurswaakhond is daar onderdeel van, maar ook het feit dat deze SEC nauwer gaat samenwerken met de CFTC, de waakhond voor grondstoffenmarkten. Vermoedelijk krijgt deze grondstoffenwaakhond het ook voor het zeggen in het domein van de memecoins. Het is nog wachten op echt duidelijke regels, maar de onzekerheid voor cryptobedrijven in de VS is wel weg, ook omdat de waakhonden inmiddels makke lammetjes zijn geworden. Deze week in de CryptocastEen gesprek met Marcel Koeslag van BDO en co-host Mauro Halve over het schenken en erven van crypto. We betalen in Nederland belasting over schenken en erven, dat is hopelijk geen nieuws. Maar bij crypto zitten er een aantal interessante kanten aan. Wanneer is een crypto-schenking definitief? En hoe neem je het overdragen van je vermogen in crypto op in je testament? Met Daniël Mol bespreken we elke week de stand van de cryptomarkt.

Recorded during ThreatLocker Zero Trust World 2025 in Orlando, this episode of the On Location series features an engaging conversation with Alex Benton, Special Projects at ThreatLocker. Benton shares insights from his Metasploit lab, a beginner-friendly session that demonstrates the power of tools like Metasploit and Nmap in cybersecurity. The lab's objective is clear: to illustrate how easily unpatched systems can be exploited and reinforce the critical need for consistent patch management.Understanding the Metasploit LabBenton explains how participants in the lab learned to execute a hack manually before leveraging Metasploit's streamlined capabilities. The manual process involves identifying vulnerable machines, gathering IP addresses, examining open ports, and assessing software vulnerabilities. With Metasploit, these steps become as simple as selecting an exploit and running it, underscoring the tool's efficiency.A key demonstration in the lab involved Eternal Blue, the exploit associated with the WannaCry virus in 2017. Benton emphasizes how Metasploit simplifies this complex attack, highlighting the importance of maintaining patched systems to prevent similar vulnerabilities.The Real-World Implications of Unpatched SystemsThe discussion dives into the risks posed by cybercriminals who use tools like Metasploit to automate attacks. Benton points out that malicious actors often analyze patch notes to identify potential vulnerabilities and create scripts to exploit unpatched systems quickly. The conversation touches on the dark web's role in providing detailed information about exposed systems, making it even easier for attackers to target vulnerable machines.Lessons from WannaCryThe episode revisits the WannaCry incident, where a vulnerability in Windows systems led to a global cybersecurity crisis. Benton recounts how outdated systems and the absence of a strong security culture created an environment ripe for exploitation. He also shares the story of cybersecurity researchers, including Marcus Hutchins, who played pivotal roles in mitigating the virus's impact by identifying and activating its kill switch.Tune in to Learn MoreThis episode offers valuable insights into cybersecurity practices, the dangers of unpatched environments, and the tools that both ethical hackers and cybercriminals use. Listen in to gain a deeper understanding of how to secure your systems and why proactive security measures are more crucial than ever.Guest: Alex Benton, Special Projects at ThreatLocker | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-benton-b805065/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber] | On ITSPmagazine:  https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli____________________________This Episode's SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974____________________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from ZTW 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/zero-trust-world-2025-cybersecurity-and-zero-trust-event-coverage-orlando-floridaRegister for Zero Trust World 2025: https://itspm.ag/threat5mu1____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

In this episode of the Cybersecurity Defenders podcast, we recount some hacker history, and with the help of Marcus Hutchins, tell the story of the WannaCry ransomware attack. The WannaCry ransomware attack was a worldwide cyberattack in May 2017 by the WannaCry ransomware cryptoworm, which targeted computers running the Microsoft Windows operating system by encrypting data and demanding ransom payments in the Bitcoin cryptocurrency. It propagated by using EternalBlue, an exploit developed by the United States National Security Agency (NSA) for Windows systems. EternalBlue was stolen and leaked by a group called The Shadow Brokers a month prior to the attack. Researcher Marcus Hutchins discovered the kill switch domain hardcoded in the malware. Registering a domain name for a DNS sinkhole stopped the attack spreading as a worm, because the ransomware only encrypted the computer's files if it was unable to connect to that domain, which all computers infected with WannaCry before the website's registration had been unable to do. While this did not help already infected systems, it severely slowed the spread of the initial infection and gave time for defensive measures to be deployed worldwide, particularly in North America and Asia, which had not been attacked to the same extent as elsewhere.

The WanaCry ransomware quickly spread to hundreds of thousands of Windows systems on May 12, 2017, impacting everything from car manufacturing to hospitals. A few hours later, it was stopped by a cybersecurity researcher. Hosted by Corbin Davenport, guest starring Joe Fedewa.

In this special episode, I finally get a chance to do a virtual fireside chat with my talented and funny CISO Scott Dresen. I actually started working with Scott while he was the Chief Technology Officer for Spectrum Health. It was in this role that Scott down the path to becoming the Chief Information Security Officer for Corewell Health. So you can say he has been here for the entire Information Security program revamp that started back in 2016.Talking Points:Back in 2016 you were the CTO when the Information Security program was 'rebooted'. What were some of your biggest challenges and frustrations back then?In 2018 you assumed the dual role of CTO and CISO, what was the hardest thing you had to change/overcome with having that dual role?Let's talk to WannaCry incident, what did the high level leadership view look like and what decisions needed to happen?In 2019 you had to re-evaluate the state of the security program at the halfway part of the timeline. During that you had to make some hard choice about the direction we needed to go in order to compete things. How did you come up with those decisions?You have had the distinct 'pleasure' of being a part of both a small healthcare and large scale acquisitions, what are some valuable lessons learned from each?In 2020 you had to pivot from an almost entirely in-person workforce to almost 100% remote, how did you manage to accomplish this in a timely and successful manner?In 2023 you had a chance to speak in front of congress around healthcare security, walk me through how that came about, how you felt in the moment and what things would you do differently (in hindsight)What has been the hardest part of planning and implementing Artificial Intelligence security?Heading into 2025, what advice do you have for other healthcare security leaders as they face the challenges of tighter budgets, smarter threat actors and changing business strategies? Episode Charities:Toys for Tots of Grand Rapids - Presents for less fortunate childrenNorth Kent Connect - A great foundation that helps families with items that may not be covered by other programsYMCA of Greater Grand Rapids - Great organization promoting healthy lifestylesEpisode Sponsor:Cloud Con - Michigan's premier security and infrastructure conference!

The Internet of Things is nothing short of a modern miracle. The ability to connect devices across a network and control them remotely, gathering data, performing routine maintenance, and saving countless hours of preparation time and direct human interaction. It gave rise to the need for Smart, Connected, and Secure technology solutions. That's great for the residential home or the industrial plant across town. Could that level of sophistication and convenience follow us to other places, like, say, the hospital? We are, in fact, living the future today - where a world of medical devices are no longer standalone entities, but interconnected nodes in a vast network known as the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). This digital revolution promises to transform patient care, enabling real-time monitoring, remote diagnostics, and personalized treatment plans. But these utopian dreams of a better health system still have some caveats to be aware of. As we embrace this new frontier, we must also confront the looming threat of cyber insecurity.   In recent years, ransomware attacks have targeted healthcare institutions worldwide, from the WannaCry outbreak that crippled the UK's National Health Service in 2017 to the more recent Ryuk attacks on U.S. hospitals in 2020 like Locky in Los Angeles. According to the HIPAA Journal, “at least 141 hospitals were directly affected by ransomware attacks in 2023” alone where the number of attacks almost doubled since the previous year. These incidents expose the vulnerabilities in our medical device infrastructure, where outdated software and lack of encryption leave patient data and lives at risk. The American Hospital Association describes these not as white-collar crimes, but “threat-to-life crimes” and they can be a life-or-death matter.   Yet, amidst these challenges, there is hope. As technology advances, so too do the solutions for securing IoMT. With the development of purpose-built embedded control technology solutions, we stand on the edge of a new era in connected care. Imagine a future where medical devices not only communicate seamlessly but also protect patient information from the most sophisticated attacks.   How can Microchip Technology strengthen and reinforce the Internet of Medical Things and potentially hold the key to unlocking a brighter, healthier future?   Links from the episode: Smart Medical Solutions | Microchip Technology  CryptoAuthentication™ Secure Key Storage | Microchip Technology    Guests:  Justin Wilson

Guest post by Michael Jenkins CTO ThreatLocker. Cyber attacks are on the rise and are forecast to cost the UK £27bn in 2023 alone. In an increasingly digital working world, no business is safe from these threats - and it is often simple - avoidable - errors that leave businesses vulnerable. Cyber attacks are damaging to businesses, both financially and reputationally, and arrive in all shapes and sizes through a variety of methods. Prevention is always greater than the cure - so erring on the side of caution when it comes to security, what is the best course of action to keep your business safeguarded? Unfortunately, it's very easy to slip up. And attackers never need a second invitation to breach a system. Here are some of the most common cybersecurity mistakes companies make - and how to avoid them. Physical Mistakes It's common for businesses to think of cyber attacks as being based in the digital world - leaving them vulnerable to physical breaches they didn't even consider. Most employees carry laptops from location to location which can often leave them exposed to physical attacks from hackers. Breaches can happen in a variety of ways, from hackers infiltrating offices and changing access passwords to downloading sensitive data onto USBs at desks when workers are away. Many professionals are continuously logged into sensitive and private data which will be fully accessible to hackers who access an unlocked computer when staff are away. A breach may start with a thief pretending to be a contractor or delivery man to gain physical access. This form of social engineering is highly effective, and once a criminal has physical access to a facility, gaining computer access is as simple as finding an unattended workstation. There have been numerous instances of people pretending to be database admins where they have gained access to physical databases, and from that point on, they have access to a businesses' servers. After that, it's easy to perform some data exfiltration which could later result in a ransomware attack. Once they leave the premises, they already have active connections to your system. That's one of the ways hackers go from social engineering to technical hacking. Virtual Mistakes Cybersecurity is a critical concern for businesses, and as companies move more towards a hybrid or remote environment, the concept of having a local network has diminished, making employees more vulnerable and leaving the door open for cybercriminals. The risk of cyber threats has become more prevalent with 31% of businesses falling victim every week from small businesses to large corporations with robust cybersecurity strategies. Companies can become vulnerable in many ways. One of the most common is ignoring the request to update devices. While this is often time-consuming, failure to install fresh software exposes personal and company data to threats as these unpatched vulnerabilities can be exploited. A perfect case in point is the WannaCry attacks - which ended up costing the NHS a staggering £92 million. Staff can run into risks from connecting to unsecured public networks during remote working, such as those found in coffee shops or airports, unintentionally exposing sensitive data and leaving the door open for unauthorised parties to gain access. Businesses need to advise employees on the risks associated with connecting to unsecured networks and the implications this can have. Weak passwords are also an easy gateway for attackers, as well as the misuse of workstations for non-business purposes - such as downloading games or personal software. To mitigate these risks, the implementation of application control is imperative for safeguarding businesses by allowing only the applications that they need and blocking everything else.. Humans constitute the first line of defence against cyber attacks, and regular and up-to-date cybersecurity training offers effective approaches for businesses to minimise risk. As humans are usually...

In this episode of the Cybersecurity Defenders podcast, we recount some hacker history, and with the help of Marcus Hutchins, tell the story of the WannaCry ransomware attack.The WannaCry ransomware attack was a worldwide cyberattack in May 2017 by the WannaCry ransomware cryptoworm, which targeted computers running the Microsoft Windows operating system by encrypting data and demanding ransom payments in the Bitcoin cryptocurrency. It propagated by using EternalBlue, an exploit developed by the United States National Security Agency (NSA) for Windows systems. EternalBlue was stolen and leaked by a group called The Shadow Brokers a month prior to the attack. Researcher Marcus Hutchins discovered the kill switch domain hardcoded in the malware. Registering a domain name for a DNS sinkhole stopped the attack spreading as a worm, because the ransomware only encrypted the computer's files if it was unable to connect to that domain, which all computers infected with WannaCry before the website's registration had been unable to do. While this did not help already infected systems, it severely slowed the spread of the initial infection and gave time for defensive measures to be deployed worldwide, particularly in North America and Asia, which had not been attacked to the same extent as elsewhere.The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast: a show about cybersecurity and the people that defend the internet.

Scott interviews James Bamford about some of the stories he collected for his new book about the collapse of America's counterintelligence apparatus. They start with Russiagate and talk about how, while the government and media were screeching about imaginary Trump-Russia collusion, the UAE had two spies in the Clinton Campaign. They also talk about how the NSA lost half a billion classified documents containing methods later used for the WannaCry ransomware attacks of 2017, the former FBI counterintelligence agent who is now facing charges for working with the Russians, a group of former CIA and FBI guys who were accidentally hired to help a Russian coup attempt, the lack of accountability for the intelligence failures of Iraq War II, the framing of Maria Butina and the mole in the FBI who spent two decades transferring documents to the Chinese government in the most blatant fashion imaginable.  Discussed on the show: “The American intelligence community has no accountability — so how can it keep us safe?” (New York Post) Spyfail by James Bamford The Interview (IMDb) “How an Oligarch May Have Recruited the F.B.I. Agent Who Investigated Him” (New York Times) A Pretext for War by James Bamford “How China planted an FBI mole who was discovered only after gutting the CIA's vast spy network” (Business Insider) “These Shady UAE Donors Gave Millions to Clinton and Trump While the Feds Dozed” (Daily Beast) James Bamford is a journalist, professor, documentary filmmaker, and the author of Spyfail: Foreign Spies, Moles, Saboteurs, and the Collapse of America's Counterintelligence, Body of Secrets: Anatomy of the Ultra-Secret National Security Agency and A Pretext for War: 9/11, Iraq, and the Abuse of America's Intelligence Agencies.
