Justin Trudeau announces new Amazon Vancouver headquarters to bring 3,000 jobs
 By Amy Judd
Online News Producer Global News     Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Monday that Amazon is expanding its Vancouver tech hub with a new headquarters.

This is expected to bring an additional 3,000 high tech jobs to the city in fields including e-commerce technology, cloud computing, and machine learning.

The new headquarters will be located at the old Canada Post headquarters, at 349 West Georgia Street where Monday’s announcement was made. It is expected to open in 2022.

This is in addition to Amazon’s current Vancouver offices – including its 156,000 square-foot location in TELUS Garden which opened to Amazon employees in 2015. On top of Monday’s announcement, Amazon also confirmed last November its plans to expand into another downtown site on Dunsmuir Street, which will open in 2020.

“Amazon is excited to create 3,000 more highly skilled jobs in Vancouver,” said Alexandre Gagnon, vice-president of Amazon Canada and Mexico. “Vancouver is home to an incredibly talented and diverse workforce, and these thousands of new employees will invent on behalf of our customers worldwide.”

Amazon already employs more than 6,000 people in Canada. It employs more than 1,000 researchers and engineers in Vancouver.

“Our vibrant cities, which are home to some of the best talent in the world, are poised to attract premier investment that creates the jobs of tomorrow. Canadians share your passion for invention and your commitment to excellence – and that’s why we are excited to see Amazon grow here in Vancouver,” said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Monday.

  THAICERT SEIZES HIDDEN COBRA SERVER LINKED TO GHOSTSECRET, SONY ATTACKS
Posted by: mrtrout - 04-28-2018 , 02:38 AM - Forum: Security News - No Replies

https://threatpost.com/thaicert-seizes-h...ks/131498/       THAICERT SEIZES HIDDEN COBRA SERVER LINKED TO GHOSTSECRET, SONY ATTACKS
by Tara Seals April 27, 2018 , 11:58 am
Thailand’s Computer Emergency Response Team (ThaiCERT) has seized a server operated by the North Korea-linked Hidden Cobra APT, which is used to control the global GhostSecret espionage campaign. The campaign is still ongoing.

ThaiCERT said in an alert on Wednesday that it is working with McAfee and law enforcement to analyze the control server, which was located at Thammasat University in Bangkok. Researchers said that the server has the same IP address as the one used in the infamous 2014 Sony Pictures hack, known to be linked to Hidden Cobra (a.k.a. the Lazarus Group) and North Korea.

Earlier this week McAfee warned that the GhostSecret campaign was carrying out data reconnaissance on a wide number of industries, including critical infrastructure, entertainment, finance, healthcare and telecommunications, in at least 17 countries.

“The public exposure is likely to force the actors to change infrastructure and implants,” a McAfee spokesperson told Threatpost. “We also suspect this may be the tip of the iceberg and there may be more hidden infrastructure yet to be discovered.”

The offensive uses multiple implants, tools and malware variants associated with Hidden Cobra, which together have established a covert network to gather data and create the capability to launch further attacks. The malware in play includes Bankshot, which is a remote access tool that gives an attacker full capability on a victim’s system (with the functionality to wipe files and content, and gather data). Hidden Cobra has used Bankshot in the past to target finance and other industries, including attacking a major Korean bank. Bankshot also can search for hosts related to the SWIFT network, researchers said, which Hidden Cobra has been known to go after, as in the case of the Bangladesh Central Bank heist in 2016 that saw the attackers make off with $81 million.

Researchers also uncovered two previously unknown malware variants. One has capabilities that resemble the Destover malware, which also was used in the Sony attack; and another, dubbed Proxysvc, is a unique data-gathering and implant-installation component that listens on port 443 for inbound control server connections. McAfee said that Proxysvc is part of a covert network of Secure Sockets Layer listeners that allow the attackers to gather data and install more complex implants or additional infrastructure; it essentially lets attackers know which systems were infected in order to connect to them.

“Our analysis of the code…indicates that Bankshot, Proxysvc, and the Destover-like implant are distinct families, but also contain overlapping code and functionality with current tools of Hidden Cobra,” McAfee researchers said. They added, “the evolution in complexity of these data-gathering implants reveals an advanced capability by an attacker that continues its development of tools.”

Operation GhostSecret kicked off in February 2018, when the actors targeted the Turkish financial system via spear-phishing emails containing malicious Microsoft Word documents and the Bankshot payload. It started with a major government-controlled financial organization, next appeared in another Turkish government organization involved in finance and trade, and then victimized a further three large financial institutions in the country.

ThaiCERT said that it’s in the process of accessing the information on the seized server, and that once analyzed, it will then assist Thai victims with remediation. McAfee is continuing to investigate as well.

  SAMSAM RANSOMWARE EVOLVES ITS TACTICS TOWARDS TARGETING WHOLE COMPANIES
Posted by: mrtrout - 04-28-2018 , 02:36 AM - Forum: Security News - No Replies

https://threatpost.com/samsam-ransomware...es/131519/        SAMSAM RANSOMWARE EVOLVES ITS TACTICS TOWARDS TARGETING WHOLE COMPANIES
by Tara Seals April 27, 2018 , 3:41 pm
Ransomware has lately lost its status as the queen of the cybercrime prom, but a new iteration of the nefarious SamSam extortion code shows that it can still make a bid to be sparkly and attention-getting.

The latest version of SamSam has taken the malware road less traveled, ditching widespread spam campaigns for unusually targeted, whole-company attacks. According to an analysis by Sophos, in a reversal of previous tactics, SamSam operators are now launching thousands of copies of the ransomware at once into individual organizations, each of which has been carefully selected.

To effect the “whole-company” play, SamSam uses various vulnerability exploits rather than phishing and spam to gain access to a victim company’s network; it’s also been seen using brute-force tactics against weak Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) passwords, Sophos said. After gaining a foothold, SamSam follows its known pathology, seeking out additional victims via network-mapping and stealing credentials – a tactic that Cisco Talos analysts noticed back in January. Once the potential targets are discovered, the attackers manually deploy SamSam on the selected systems, using tools like PSEXEC and batch scripts.

After they’ve infiltrated a target company and saturated it with the malware, the operators are also mixing things up when it comes to business tactics: They’re offering a “volume discount” to clean all of those machines.

In Sophos’ examination, the volume discount works out to about $45,000 worth of Bitcoin at current exchange rates.

“We don’t know why the price is $45,000,” said Sophos researcher Paul Ducklin, in a post. “For all we know, that number was picked because it’s below certain reporting thresholds, or because the crooks want to pick the highest value they dare without getting into corporate board-level approval territory. All we can say is that $45,000 is a lot of money.”

If companies don’t want the so-called volume discount, they can pay per host, restoring select machines by sending the specific host names to the operators.

As far as how well business is going for the SamSam gang, Talos reported that a SamSam-affiliated Bitcoin wallet address in January had received 30.4 BTC. A second address, active from mid-January, has received 23 payments as of April, Sophos said. Between the two, the criminals have raked in a total income of 68.1 Bitcoin to date, which works out to about $632,199 at the latest exchange rate.

The good news is that basic security hygiene, like patching, segmenting the network, having backups in place and enforcing policy on privileged account access can all help protect against SamSam. Companies should take note and take the time to build a ransomware plan, because the stakes are high: While they shouldn’t pay the ransom, victims are sure to pay in one way or another.

The city of Atlanta, a high-profile recent SamSam victim, ponied up $2.7 million to security firms and consultants to help it get its machines and data back. The attack caused a complete shutdown for days of the Georgia capital’s online systems, which support the police department, city courts, parts of the airport (the world’s busiest) and more. Attackers asked the city to pay $6,800 to unlock each computer, which translates into a whopping $51,000 for all of the needed keys – but the city declined to pay. Regardless, the event was costly – and some systems are still inaccessible, according to reports.

  Apartment building fire leaves residents homeless in Bible Hill

No injuries in blaze that ripped through three-storey building off Vimy Road

Several families are homeless after a fire ripped through a 12-unit apartment building in Bible Hill, N.S., on Friday.

Fire crews responded to the call at 23 Brooklyn Dr. at 12:30 p.m. All residents managed to escape and are accounted for. Fire officials said there were no injuries and Red Cross volunteers are assisting displaced residents.

Jenny Shin and her mother were in the process of moving from an apartment on the first floor to one on the third floor when she smelled something unusual.

"My mom said, 'Someone is maybe cooking something.'"

But when Shin went to the window, she could see flames and people already getting out of the building. She and her mother quickly did the same. She's now waiting for word on when she can get back in to assess the damage. Shin said they hadn't set up fire insurance prior to the move.

She's staying in guest housing at Dalhousie University's agricultural campus, where she is a graduate student. They're trying to find a place for her mother.

Bible Hill Fire Brigade Chief Joey Bisson said the entire front of the three-storey building was engulfed in flames reaching from the third storey to the roof as the first two trucks arrived.

"From that point it was just spreading rapidly."

Wendy Smith lives across the street from the apartment building. She said she was having a nap when she heard a loud sound like rain.

"I looked out my bathroom window and it was just shooting flames everywhere."

Firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze by mid-afternoon, in part by using an aerial truck to "drown out the top of fire," said Bisson. The building's roof was extensively damaged and eventually collapsed as crews monitored the scene for hot spots or flareups.

Bisson said it's too soon to know how the fire started, although he said it appears to have started in the front of the building. Firefighters from just about every fire department in Colchester County also responded to the call, said Bisson.
