The U.S. Department of Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has published a new alert about the LokiBot malware, which it notes it has observed a notable increase in the use of by malicious cyber actors since July 2020. According to the alert, LokiBot uses a credential- and information-stealing malware, often sent as a malicious attachment and known for being simple, yet effective, making it an attractive tool for a broad range of cyber actors across a wide variety of data compromise use cases. The alert provides technical details of LokiBot, including its techniques described in terms of the MITRE ATT&CK framework. It also offers recommend measures for federal, state, local, tribal, territorial government, private sector users, and network administrators to strengthen the security posture of their organization's systems.
