The Australian Cyber Security Centre has issued a warning to the health sector, saying it has seen increased targeting by attackers using the SDBBot remote access trojan.
In a statement, the ACSC said the malware had three components: an installer which established persistence, a loader which downloaded additional components, and the RAT itself.
"Once installed, malicious actors will use SDBBot to move laterally within a network and exfiltrate data," the agency said.
"SDBBot is a known precursor of the Clop ransomware."
The ACSC said while it had seen activity targeting the health sector, all networks should review their controls against ransomware as per its recommendations.
There have been three notable attacks by Clop this year: one against the German software firm Software AG, a second against a German tech firm NETZSCH Group, and the third against Indian conglomerate Indiabulls.

Now’s the Time for 400G Migration
The optical fibre community is anxiously awaiting the benefits that 400G capacity per wavelength will bring to existing and future fibre optic networks.
Nearly every business wants to leverage the latest in digital offerings to remain competitive in their respective markets and to provide support for fast and ever-increasing demands for data capacity. 400G is the answer.
Initial challenges are associated with supporting such project and upgrades to fulfil the promise of higher-capacity transport.
The foundation of optical networking infrastructure includes coherent optical transceivers and digital signal processing (DSP), mux/demux, ROADM, and optical amplifiers, all of which must be able to support 400G capacity.
With today’s proprietary power-hungry and high cost transceivers and DSP, how is migration to 400G networks going to be a viable option?
PacketLight's next-generation standardised solutions may be the answer. Click below to read the full article.
