Die indischen Betrugs-Callcenter haben offenbar inzwischen vom angeblichen #microsoftsecurity-Scam auf #paypalscam umgestellt. Gerade hatte ich einen in der Leitung. Da ich heute Feiertag habe und gut gelaunt war, hab ich das Spiel ca. 10 Minuten mitgespielt, bevor ich ihm gesagt habe, dass ich gar kein #PayPal-Konto habe.

Es ging die ganze Zeit darum, #anydesk auf einem meiner Geräte zu installieren und dann meine Daten abzugreifen.

Microsoft Security Blog · Join us at InfoSec Jupyterthon 2024 | Microsoft Security BlogJupyter notebooks are continuing to grow in popularity in information security as an alternative or supplement to mainstream security operations center (SOC) tools. Notebooks can be used interactively for threat detection and response, or as automated tasks in a larger pipeline. Their flexibility and ability to combine code, data analysis, and visualization in a single, […]

🚨 #Cybersécurité : Microsoft a été ciblé par le groupe de hackers Midnight Blizzard, précédemment connu sous le nom de Nobelium, qui a réussi à accéder à une petite quantité de comptes de messagerie internes, y compris ceux de l'équipe de direction. L'attaque, qui n'a pas exploité de failles dans les produits Microsoft, a été contenue rapidement sans preuve d'accès aux données clients. Microsoft renforce ses mesures de sécurité en réponse à cet incident, soulignant l'importance de la transparence et de l'amélioration continue de la cybersécurité. 🛡️ #TechNews #MicrosoftSecurity

"It is a generative AI-powered security solution that helps increase the efficiency and capabilities of defenders to improve security outcomes at machine speed and scale, while remaining compliant to responsible AI principles."

The primary focus of the Early Access Program is centered around:

📌𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲

📌𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁

"Here's an explanation of how Microsoft Security Copilot works:

➡ User prompts from security products are sent to Security Copilot.

➡Security Copilot then pre-processes the input prompt through an approach called grounding, which improves the specificity of the prompt, to help you get answers that are relevant and actionable to your prompt. Security Copilot accesses plugins for pre-processing, then sends the modified prompt to the language model.

➡Security Copilot takes the response from the language model and post-processes it. This post-processing includes accessing plugins to gain contextualized information.

➡Security Copilot returns the response, where the user can review and assess the response."

Nice write-up by Microsoft security researchers about new campaign where attackers attempted to move laterally to a cloud environment through a SQL Server instance.

Attackers are now attempting to move laterally into cloud environments via SQL Server instances—a method previously seen in VMs and Kubernetes clusters but not in SQL Server.
