Ambitious, suspected Chinese hackers with a slew of goals — stealing intellectual property, mining intelligence on national security and trade, developing avenues for future advanced cyberattacks — have been setting up shop inside U.S. target networks for exceptionally long stretches of time, in a breach that the researchers who uncovered it said could present problems for years to come. https://hubs.li/Q03Lg8-q0

Terminating their employment is the easy part. The rest is complicated.

When enterprises discover they have inadvertently hired North Korean information technology workers, they face a cascade of urgent decisions involving sanctions law, cybersecurity protocols, and law enforcement cooperation that can expose them to significant legal and financial risks. https://hubs.li/Q03Lg82w0

Federal cyber authorities sounded a rare alarm Thursday, issuing an emergency directive about an ongoing and widespread attack spree involving actively exploited zero-day vulnerabilities affecting Cisco firewalls.

Cisco said it began investigating attacks on multiple government agencies linked to the state-sponsored campaign in May. The vendor, which attributes the attacks to the same threat group behind an early 2024 campaign targeting Cisco devices it dubbed “ArcaneDoor,” said the new zero-days were exploited to “implant malware, execute commands, and potentially exfiltrate data from the compromised devices.” https://hubs.li/Q03Lg6Mg0

The United Nations is making a push to more directly influence global policy on artificial intelligence, including the promotion of policymaking and technical standards around “safe, secure and trustworthy” AI.

Last month, the world body finalized plans to create a new expert panel focused on developing scientific, technical and policy standards for the emerging technology. The Independent Scientific Panel on AI will be staffed by 40 international experts serving three-year terms and will be drawn from “balanced geographic representation to promote scientific understanding” around the risks and impacts. https://hubs.li/Q03Lg7lm0

Threat intelligence professionals have a sense of foreboding about a maximum-severity vulnerability Forta disclosed last week in its file-transfer service GoAnywhere MFT, as they steel themselves for active exploitation and signs of compromise.

Forta has not declared the defect actively exploited and did not answer questions to that effect from CyberScoop. Yet, researchers at watchTowr said they’ve obtained credible evidence of active exploitation of the vulnerability dating back to Sept. 10. https://hubs.li/Q03Lg99b0
