Cyber espionage is used heavily by People\u2019s Republic of China (PRC) state-sponsored actors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-asia-china-62064506\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Per the BBC<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, FBI director Christopher Wray warned the audience explicitly that the Chinese government was &#8220;set on stealing your technology&#8221; using a range of tools. MI5 head Ken McCallum said the challenge posed by the Chinese Communist Party was &#8220;game-changing&#8221;, while Wray called it &#8220;immense&#8221; and &#8220;breathtaking&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The MI5 head also said that China deployed cyber espionage to &#8220;cheat and steal on a massive scale&#8221;, with a hacking program larger than that of every other major country combined. The MI5 head said intelligence about cyber threats had been shared with 37 countries and that in May a sophisticated threat against aerospace had been disrupted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FBI director Christopher Wray said China was the &#8220;biggest long-term threat to our economic and national security&#8221; and had interfered in politics, including recent elections.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MI5 head Ken McCallum said his service had more than doubled its work against Chinese activity in the last three years and would be doubling it again. MI5 is now running seven times as many investigations related to activities of the Chinese Communist Party compared to 2018, he added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He said it posed &#8220;an even more serious threat to western businesses than even many sophisticated business people realized&#8221;. He cited cases in which people linked to Chinese companies out in rural America had been digging up genetically modified seeds which would have cost them billions of dollars and nearly a decade to develop themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And he pointed to the interference alert issued by Parliament in January about the activities of Christine Lee. He said these types of operations aimed to amplify pro-Chinese communist party voices and silence those that questioned its authority. &#8220;It needs to be challenged,&#8221; the MI5 head said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the US, the FBI director said the Chinese government had directly interfered in a congressional election in New York this spring because they did not want a candidate who was a critic and former protester at Tiananmen Square to be elected.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;China has for far too long counted on being everybody&#8217;s second-highest priority,&#8221; Wray said, adding: &#8220;They are not flying under the radar anymore.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Cybersecurity Advisory AA22-158A on PRC State Sponsored Cyber Actors<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Preceding the press conference by just a few weeks, in June 2022, a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/media.defense.gov\/2022\/Jun\/07\/2003013376\/-1\/-1\/0\/CSA_PRC_SPONSORED_CYBER_ACTORS_EXPLOIT_NETWORK_PROVIDERS_DEVICES_TLPWHITE.PDF\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">joint Cybersecurity Advisory (CSA) AA22-158A<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was co-authored and issued by the National Security Agency (NSA), the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This CSA describes the ways in which People\u2019s Republic of China (PRC) state-sponsored cyber actors continue to exploit publicly known vulnerabilities in order to establish a broad network of compromised infrastructure. These actors use the network to exploit a wide variety of targets worldwide, including public and private sector organizations. The advisory details the targeting and compromise of major telecommunications companies and network service providers and the top vulnerabilities which are primarily Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with network devices routinely exploited by the cyber actors since 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PRC state-sponsored cyber actors readily exploit vulnerabilities to compromise unpatched network devices. Network devices, such as Small Office\/Home Office (SOHO) routers and Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices, serve as additional access points to route command and control (C2) traffic and act as midpoints to conduct network intrusions on other entities. Over the last few years, a series of high-severity vulnerabilities for network devices provided cyber actors with the ability to regularly exploit and gain access to vulnerable infrastructure devices. In addition, these devices are often overlooked by cyber defenders, who struggle to maintain and keep pace with routine software patching of Internet-facing services and endpoint devices.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Earlier NSA Advisories Covered the Use of DNS by PRC State Sponsored Cyber Actors<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The timely implementation of patching and updates are part of the mitigation effort recommended by the NSA. The NSA advisory \u201cprovides Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) known to be recently leveraged, or scanned-for, by Chinese state-sponsored cyber actors to enable successful hacking operations against a multitude of victim networks. Most of the vulnerabilities listed below can be exploited to gain initial access to victim networks using products directly accessible from the Internet and act as gateways to internal networks. The majority of the products are either for remote access (T11332) or external web services (T11903) and should be prioritized for immediate patching.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Domain Name System Vulnerability in NSA Advisory<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the top 25 vulnerabilities identified by the NSA includes CVE-2020-135045. A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Windows Domain Name System servers when they fail to properly handle requests, aka \u2018Windows DNS Server Remote Code Execution Vulnerability.\u2019 This vulnerability was first published in the NIST national vulnerability database on 7.14.2020. This impacts Microsoft Windows Server 2008 through 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>A Protective DNS Approach to Blocking Threats<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">90% of malware, \u202dincluding most ransomware, uses DNS at some point in its lifecycle. Users will often click on phishing links, \u202dmalicious emails, or inadvertently go to a website that may be hosting ransomware &#8211; these actions require a DNS lookup before connection.\u00a0 Subsequently, several back and forth communications between the device (which may also now be infected) and the Command &amp; Control destination also happen over DNS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Threat intelligence, analytics, and machine learning examining DNS activities can block these actions, either by preventing the initial infection or preventing the Command &amp; Control callbacks that could result in the downloads of additional malicious code or encryption software.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2021, NSA and CISA also put out a document on selecting a<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/media.defense.gov\/2021\/Mar\/03\/2002593055\/-1\/-1\/0\/CSI_Selecting%20a%20Protective%20DNS%20Service_U00117652-21.PDF\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Protective DNS Service<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that talks about how DNS is central to modern networks and why it can be used as a key defense mechanism against cyberthreats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn more about DNS security here: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.infoblox.com\/products\/bloxone-threat-defense\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.infoblox.com\/products\/bloxone-threat-defense\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To find out more about how Infoblox can help protect your DNS infrastructure, please reach out to us via <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/info.infoblox.com\/contact-form\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/info.infoblox.com\/contact-form\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A June 2021 <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/info.infoblox.com\/resources-whitepapers-gartner-how-can-organizations-use-dns-to-improve-their-security-posture.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gartner report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> recommends organizations leverage DNS logs for threat detection and forensic purposes with their Security Information and Event Management platforms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7683\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.infoblox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/shields-up.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.infoblox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shields-up.png 512w, https:\/\/www.infoblox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/shields-up-300x80.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine could impact organizations both within and beyond the region, to include malicious cyber activity against the U.S. homeland, including as a response to the unprecedented economic costs imposed on Russia by the U.S. and our allies and partners.
