Full Incident Analysis Transcript

In this Rankiteo incident briefing, we review the FSB UK breach identified under incident ID FSB1773268797.

The analysis begins with a detailed overview of FSB UK's information like the linkedin page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/fsb-uk, the number of followers: 3918, the industry type: Non-profit Organizations and the number of employees: 5 employees

After the initial compromise, the video explains how Rankiteo's incident engine converts technical details into a normalized incident score. The incident score before the incident was 759 and after the incident was 692 with a difference of -67 which is could be a good indicator of the severity and impact of the incident.

In the next step of the video, we will analyze in more details the incident and the impact it had on FSB UK and their customers.

A newly reported cybersecurity incident, "UK Small Businesses Face Rising Cyber Threat", has drawn attention.

Nearly half of all small businesses in the UK experienced cyberattacks or breaches in the past year, according to the *Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2025* released by the UK government.

Impact assessments are still underway, so the full scope is not yet clear.

Formal response steps have not been shared publicly yet.

The case underscores how teams are taking away lessons such as Smaller firms often lack the resources to implement robust security measures, highlighting the need for improved defenses amid a rapidly evolving threat landscape.

Finally, we try to match the incident with the MITRE ATT&CK framework to see if there is any correlation between the incident and the MITRE ATT&CK framework.

The MITRE ATT&CK framework is a knowledge base of techniques and sub-techniques that are used to describe the tactics and procedures of cyber adversaries. It is a powerful tool for understanding the threat landscape and for developing effective defense strategies.

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%), supported by evidence indicating growing vulnerability of smaller enterprises to digital threats, Phishing (T1566) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating nearly half of all small businesses in the UK experienced cyberattacks, and Valid Accounts (T1078) with lower confidence (40%), supported by evidence indicating smaller firms often lack the resources to implement robust security measures. Under the Credential Access tactic, the analysis identified Brute Force (T1110) with moderate confidence (50%), supported by evidence indicating lack of resources to implement robust security measures and Unsecured Credentials (T1552) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating smaller enterprises to digital threats due to lack of resources. Under the Exfiltration tactic, the analysis identified Exfiltration Over C2 Channel (T1041) with lower confidence (40%), supported by evidence indicating cyberattacks or breaches in the past year. Under the Impact tactic, the analysis identified Defacement (T1491) with lower confidence (30%), supported by evidence indicating attack without any consequences (explanation field) and Data Destruction (T1485) with lower confidence (30%), supported by evidence indicating growing vulnerability of smaller enterprises to digital threats. These correlations help security teams understand the attack chain and develop appropriate defensive measures based on the observed tactics and techniques.
