MITRE ATT&CK® Correlation Analysis
Rankiteo's analysis has identified several MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques associated with this incident, each with varying levels of confidence based on available evidence. Under the Initial Access tactic, the analysis identified Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190) with moderate confidence (50%), with evidence including aWS environment compromise, and one of the company’s six electronic health record (EHR) environments and Valid Accounts (T1078) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating attackers accessed one of CareCloud’s AWS environments. Under the Credential Access tactic, the analysis identified Unsecured Credentials (T1552) with moderate confidence (50%), supported by evidence indicating aWS environment compromise suggests possible credential misuse and Brute Force (T1110) with lower confidence (40%), supported by evidence indicating no details on initial access method, but brute force is plausible. Under the Collection tactic, the analysis identified Data from Local System (T1005) with moderate to high confidence (80%), supported by evidence indicating files containing individuals’ full names exfiltrated from AWS environment. Under the Exfiltration tactic, the analysis identified Exfiltration Over C2 Channel (T1041) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating data exfiltration confirmed, 3.7 million records exposed and Transfer Data to Cloud Account (T1537) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating aWS environment accessed, data likely moved to attacker-controlled cloud. Under the Impact tactic, the analysis identified Data Destruction (T1485) with lower confidence (30%), supported by evidence indicating no evidence of data destruction, but breach may enable future misuse. These correlations help security teams understand the attack chain and develop appropriate defensive measures based on the observed tactics and techniques.
