Deswegen bin ich auch sehr skeptisch ob der Selbsteinschätzung der Firmen im Wirtschaftsschutz 2025 Bericht der @bitkom.org. Gerade im Mittelstand, aber auch in grossen Orgs, sehen wir noch immer einen IT Fokus. Kaum jemand verfügt über die CISO Rolle, und wenn dann meist wieder nur in der IT.

Rechts: Anstieg der Unternehmen, die Cyberangriffe als existenzbedrohend einstehen - von 9% (2021) über 45% (2022), 52% (2023), 65% (2024) auf 59% (2025). Quelle: Bitkom Research 2025.

#Cyber ist so lange ein IT Thema bis im Betrieb nichts mehr geht. IMHO einer der wichtigsten Punkte im neuen Bericht des @ncsc.gov.uk - und etwas was in den meisten Organisationen noch immer nicht angekommen ist. #Cybersecurity ist #Business!

With the quote above his head: 
For too long, cyber security has been
regarded as an issue predominantly
for technical staff. This must change.
All business leaders need to take
responsibility for their organisation’s
cyber resilience.’

Seems like quite some internal systems were infected by InfoStealers. Quite the irony given the fact that #infostealer like #Lumma, #RedLine, #Raccoon, #Vidar are russion developed and operated #CybercrimeAsaService platforms.

Lockbit confirmed: "On 7 May, someone hacked the light panel with auto registration for all comers, stole the database, but not a single decryptor and not a single company's stolen data were compromised. I'm investigating how they managed to hack it and rebuilding it now. 1/2

It reveals the brutal reality of ransomware attacks. They are even attacking #schools: "Dude, we’re #non-profit, educating children,". Another victim begs: "Dear, $40k is my 6-year salary... Don't spoil my life." Just remember when #ALPHV / #BlackCat ransomed a breast cancer clinc.

mSpy - #stalkerware for everyone. From parents to lovers and companies. Truly worrying documentation by Swiss television. The thing is, the bad OpSec of those people exposes their victims to an even greater threat - #InfoStealer #malware. For just $10 I can buy access to peoples #mSpy account.

Tell you sisters, wives, daughters to delete their tracking apps. Don‘t use google to search for assistance. Use Startpage.com for example. Don‘t use Google Maps or similar to navigate. Don‘t use FB, Insta, or any other social media to communicate. Use Threema.ch and delete chats.

In that event, he argued, “the only motivation for testing is entrapment”.

One of the things infosec is missing is story telling. We need to get better to convey our concerns & thoughts. Dashboards & honeypots can be one good example. Why care about internet facing assets? Why care about MFA? Well, because this is what 7 days of a server on the internet looks like
Screenshot of a honeypot dashboard with various graphs. 
It visualizes the attack attempts of a server over the course of 7 days. 
Most notably it has about 400.000 attempts to login or otherwise exploit exposed services on the server. China and the Unites States are to top two countries for attacks.
