Full Incident Analysis Transcript

In this Rankiteo incident briefing, we review the Persante breach identified under incident ID PER1764634088.

The analysis begins with a detailed overview of Persante's information like the linkedin page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/persante-health-care, the number of followers: 3461, the industry type: Hospitals and Health Care and the number of employees: 139 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 675 and after the incident was 617 with a difference of -58 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 Persante and their customers.

On 28 January 2025, Persante disclosed Data Breach issues under the banner "Persante Data Breach Involving Sensitive Personal and Health Information".

Persante announced a data breach where sensitive personal identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI) may have been compromised.

The disruption is felt across the environment, and exposing Name, Social Security number and Date of birth.

In response, teams activated the incident response plan, and stakeholders are being briefed through Breach notice published on website.

The case underscores how Ongoing (review of impacted data and affected individuals in progress), with advisories going out to stakeholders covering Breach notice published on website.

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 (70%), supported by evidence indicating unusual activity in its network detected on 2025-01-28, suggesting possible credential misuse and External Remote Services (T1133) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating unauthorized third party accessed and/or acquired data (implies remote exploitation). Under the Credential Access tactic, the analysis identified Unsecured Credentials: Credentials In Files (T1552.001) with moderate confidence (50%), supported by evidence indicating unusual activity may indicate credential harvesting from misconfigured systems. Under the Collection tactic, the analysis identified Data from Local System (T1005) with high confidence (90%), supported by evidence indicating sensitive personal information and protected health information in its systems may have been accessed and Data from Network Shared Drive (T1039) with moderate to high confidence (70%), supported by evidence indicating data in its systems may have been accessed (implies shared storage compromise). Under the Exfiltration tactic, the analysis identified Exfiltration Over Alternative Protocol: Exfiltration Over Unencrypted/Obfuscated Non-C2 Protocol (T1048.003) with moderate to high confidence (80%), supported by evidence indicating accessed and/or acquired by an unauthorized third party (implies data transfer out) and Automated Exfiltration (T1020) with moderate confidence (60%), supported by evidence indicating large-scale PII/PHI exposure suggests automated collection/exfiltration. Under the Impact tactic, the analysis identified Data Destruction (T1485) with lower confidence (30%), supported by evidence indicating no explicit destruction mentioned, but high-severity breach implies potential follow-on impact and Data Encrypted for Impact (T1486) with lower confidence (20%), supported by evidence indicating no ransomware confirmed, but threatening the organization’s existence suggests severe impact. Under the Defense Evasion tactic, the analysis identified Indicator Removal: File Deletion (T1070.004) with moderate confidence (50%), supported by evidence indicating unusual activity detected late (Jan 28) after potential access (Jan 23-28) suggests log tampering and Impair Defenses: Disable or Modify Tools (T1562.001) with lower confidence (40%), supported by evidence indicating delayed detection (5-day window) may indicate defense impairment. These correlations help security teams understand the attack chain and develop appropriate defensive measures based on the observed tactics and techniques.
