Without pre-existing linkage…

Lazarus group targets European drone makers in new espionage campaign
Drone-component theft meets geopolitical ambition: The targeting of firms linked to UAV design and manufacture is no coincidence. At least two of the companies compromised were tied to critical drone component supply chains and software systems.”The in-the-wild attacks successively targeted three European companies active in the defense sector,” researchers added. “Although their activities are somewhat…

Dead-Drop Resolvers: Malware’s Quiet Rendezvous and Why Adaptive Defense Matters
At this weekend’s BSides NYC, Dr. Jonathan Fuller, CISO of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, delivered an extremely clear talk on how modern malware hides its command-and-control (C2) infrastructure through dead-drop resolvers. Fuller, who co-authored Georgia Tech’s VADER project, described how adversaries increasingly use public platforms-GitHub, Dropbox, Pastebin, even blockchain transactions-as-covert meeting points…
