Under the Lateral Movement tactic, the analysis identified Exploitation of Remote Services (T1210) with moderate to high confidence (80%), supported by evidence indicating supply chain attacks (e.g., SolarWinds, Kaseya) compromise multiple victims. Under the Collection tactic, the analysis identified Data from Local System (T1005) with high confidence (90%), supported by evidence indicating 62M students and 9.5M teachers (PowerSchool), 193M victims (Change Healthcare) and Data from Network Shared Drive (T1039) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating supply chain attacks compromise downstream victims data. Under the Command and Control tactic, the analysis identified Application Layer Protocol (T1071) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating lockBit 5.0 uses private negotiation portals for targeted extortion. Under the Exfiltration tactic, the analysis identified Exfiltration Over C2 Channel (T1041) with high confidence (90%), supported by evidence indicating 1TB of data stolen (NASCAR), data exfiltration confirmed in multiple incidents and Transfer Data to Cloud Account (T1537) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating triple extortion tactics include data theft threats. Under the Impact tactic, the analysis identified Data Encrypted for Impact (T1486) with high confidence (90%), supported by evidence indicating ransomware strains (Clop, Medusa, LockBit) encrypt data, Defacement (T1491) with moderate confidence (50%), supported by evidence indicating operational disruptions (e.g., Marks & Spencer profit drop), and Service Stop (T1489) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating disrupted loan services (LoanDepot), service disruptions (Ingram Micro). These correlations help security teams understand the attack chain and develop appropriate defensive measures based on the observed tactics and techniques.
