Full Incident Analysis Transcript
In this Rankiteo incident briefing, we review the Orange Cyberdefense breach identified under incident ID ORA1777999109.
The analysis begins with a detailed overview of Orange Cyberdefense's information like the linkedin page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/orange-cyberdefense, the number of followers: 238162, the industry type: IT Services and IT Consulting and the number of employees: 4072 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 741 and after the incident was 722 with a difference of -19 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 Orange Cyberdefense and their customers.
A newly reported cybersecurity incident, "Internal Threats Dominate Cybersecurity Incidents", has drawn attention.
Internal threats have overtaken external attacks as the leading cause of cybersecurity incidents, accounting for 57% of all cases.
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 Organizations need to strengthen access controls and adopt multi-factor authentication to mitigate growing risks from internal threats, and recommending next steps like Strengthen access controls and Adopt multi-factor authentication.
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 Valid Accounts (T1078) with moderate to high confidence (80%), supported by evidence indicating identity-based attacks have surged, rising from 10% to 17% of cases and Trusted Relationship (T1199) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating internal threats have overtaken external attacks as the leading cause. Under the Execution tactic, the analysis identified User Execution (T1204) with moderate to high confidence (80%), supported by evidence indicating employee misuse makes up 45% of internal incidents. Under the Persistence tactic, the analysis identified Valid Accounts (T1078) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating policy workarounds and lax controls are increasingly exploited and External Remote Services (T1133) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating shadow IT (53% of incidents involving employee devices). Under the Privilege Escalation tactic, the analysis identified Valid Accounts (T1078) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating identity-based attacks (17% of cases) exploit routine behaviors. Under the Defense Evasion tactic, the analysis identified Impair Defenses: Disable or Modify Tools (T1562.001) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating lax controls and policy workarounds are exploited and Valid Accounts (T1078) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating employee misuse and shadow IT bypass security controls. Under the Credential Access tactic, the analysis identified Unsecured Credentials (T1552) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating identity-based attacks surged due to lax controls. Under the Collection tactic, the analysis identified Data from Information Repositories (T1213) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating internal threats dominate, driven by employee misuse. Under the Exfiltration tactic, the analysis identified Exfiltration Over C2 Channel (T1041) with moderate confidence (50%), supported by evidence indicating internal threats account for 57% of incidents with data leaks. Under the Impact tactic, the analysis identified Data Destruction (T1485) with lower confidence (40%), supported by evidence indicating significant impact with internal employee data leaks. These correlations help security teams understand the attack chain and develop appropriate defensive measures based on the observed tactics and techniques.
