Ermes Browser Security

🏓 Game on! Team Ermes Browser Security hits the Padel Court 🎾 Every week, some of us at Ermes swap our keyboards for padel rackets and dive into friendly competition on the court. 🏆 Why do we do it? Because we know that building a strong team goes beyond the office. Playing together not only helps us stay active and healthy, but it also strengthens our bonds as colleagues. Through sport, we learn to communicate better, support each other, and most importantly, have fun! 😄 These weekly matches are more than just games—they’re opportunities to connect, collaborate, and return to work with renewed energy and focus. It’s a great reminder that the best teamwork often happens when we’re off the clock. #TeamBuilding #Padel #WorkLifeBalance #ErmesTeam #BetterTogether

🔒 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮: 𝘆𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗱-𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 🔒   Nowadays, data privacy isn’t just a personal concern—it’s a corporate necessity. As we browse the #web, countless third-party services track our every move, collecting data that could easily fall into the wrong hands. These third parties, often used for analytics or targeted advertising, are just as vulnerable to cyberattacks as any other company. When they are breached, the #data of millions—including corporate employees—can be exposed.   Recently, a concerning example of this surfaced in the form of an #OAuth and #XSSattack, which put at risk millions of web users’ accounts. This incident underscores a critical reality: third-party data collection not only puts individual privacy at risk but also threatens the security of entire organizations.   For businesses, this is another wake-up call on web third parties. Protecting your company’s data means scrutinizing every third-party service you interact with and limiting unnecessary data sharing. Let’s prioritize #privacy and #security — because once data is out there, it’s nearly impossible to pull it back.   Investing in anti-tracking technology is not just about privacy—it's about fortifying your enterprise against evolving cyber threats. Stay ahead in the security game and ensure a safer digital environment for your business and customers.   Learn more about the recent risks and how to protect yourself here: https://lnkd.in/eGPg2xuB   #CyberSecurity #DataPrivacy #AntiTracking #EnterpriseSecurity #GDPR #CCPA #DigitalSafety #DataProtection #ThirdPartyRisk #CorporateSecurity   Feel free to share your thoughts and experiences with anti-tracking solutions in the comments below

🚨 𝗩𝘂𝗹𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗿𝘁: 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝟬-𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗯𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘃𝘂𝗹𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗱 🚨 A new 0-day vulnerability affecting all major browsers has been identified and exploited in the wild. The vulnerability, named "𝟬․𝟬․𝟬․𝟬 𝗗𝗮𝘆", allows malicious websites to communicate with services running on the local machine by simply contacting the 0․0․0․0 address (hence the name). This completely bypasses existing Private Network Access safeguards and enables Unauthorized Access and Remote Code Execution. Statistics show that the amount of websites that contact the 0․0․0․0 address is drastically increasing in recent days, highlighting active exploits in the wild. While browser vendors are working to remediate the issue and plan to release updates, as Ermes Browser Security we immediately took action to protect our clients by preventing any public website from accessing the 0․0․0․0 address.

These attacks are not only alarmingly frequent but also among the most expensive. 📊 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁: - Attacks involving compromised credentials account for 16% of data breaches. - The average cost per breach associated with compromised credentials stands at a staggering $4.81 million (+$0,2 million YoY). ⏳ 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻: What’s even more concerning is the time it takes to detect and respond to these breaches. On average whether credentials were stolen or used by malicious insiders, the time for attack identification and containment has increased, resulting in an average of 292 days for stolen credentials and 287 days for malicious insider incidents. These findings underscore the urgent need for organizations to enhance their cybersecurity defenses, especially in the area of #browsersecurity. Since phishing attacks often exploit vulnerabilities in browsers and user behavior online, implementing robust browser security measures—such as advanced web threat detection, and secure browsing environments—can significantly mitigate these risks. As the threat landscape continues to evolve, investing in advanced detection and response capabilities, along with strengthening browser security, is crucial for protecting data and minimizing the financial impact of breaches. 🔒 𝗟𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝘃𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝗰𝘆𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀. #Cybersecurity #DataBreach #Phishing #CompromisedCredentials #CyberThreats #InfoSec #DataProtection #BrowserSecurity

🚨 "Where did I do wrong? I just clicked on ɢoogle[.]com!" The critical need for a proactive Cybersquatting Protection 🚨 In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, monitoring and proactively correcting deceptive domains exploiting squatting techniques is vital for protecting your enterprise. Here’s why:   1️⃣ Common Phishing Tool Domain squatting is frequently employed by phishers to deceive users into clicking on malicious links, leading to data breaches and financial loss. In 2023 alone, cybersquatting cases reached record highs, reflecting the growing threat posed by these malicious practices (Domain Name Wire).   2️⃣ Highly Deceptive Squatting techniques can easily fool users into believing they are visiting legitimate websites, increasing the risk of falling victim to scams and malware. For example, typosquatting and homograph squatting exploit common typing errors and character similarities to create deceptive domains that appear authentic (CrowdStrike).   3️⃣ Wide Range of Techniques The variety of squatting methods, including typosquatting, homograph squatting, and more, presents a complex challenge for security teams. The increase in domain name disputes, such as the 6,192 cases filed under the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) in 2023, underscores the widespread use of these techniques (Abion).   4️⃣ Real-Time Protection No security tool apart from a Ermes Browser Security solution can effectively manage and mitigate cyber squatting in real-time, ensuring smooth and robust protection across your enterprise. Traditional security measures often fall short in addressing the dynamic and deceptive nature of squatting attacks (HackRead).   Stay ahead of the curve by integrating advanced browser security solutions to safeguard your organization against these sophisticated attacks.   #CyberSecurity #DomainSquatting #PhishingProtection #BrowserSecurity #EnterpriseSecurity #DataProtection #ITSecurity   Sources:   • Domain Name Wire • CrowdStrike • Abion • HackRead
