Asset Reconnaissance Lighthouse (ARL) medium

The Asset Reconnaissance Lighthouse is designed to quickly detect Internet assets associated with targets and build a basic asset information database. Assist security teams or penetration testers to effectively detect and retrieve assets, continuously detect asset risks from an attacker's perspective, help users gain insight into asset dynamics, grasp security protection weaknesses and quickly converge the attack surface.

Brute Ratel C4 (BRc4) medium

Brute Ratel C4 (BRc4) is the newest red-teaming and adversarial attack simulation tool. It can not only emulate different stages of an attacker killchain, but also provide a systematic timeline and graph for each of the attacks executed to help the Security Operations Team validate the attacks and improve the internal defensive mechanisms. Instead, this tool is uniquely dangerous in that it was specifically designed to avoid detection by endpoint detection and response (EDR) and antivirus (AV) capabilities.

Computrace medium

If installed, in the event of a laptop being stolen, the Computrace software tracks the stolen computer and provides to authorities the information they need to get it back. The issue is that this same software can download and install unknown programs in an unauthorized manner, even if explicitly disabled by the user.

Pushbug medium

Malicious campaign abusing push notifications to impact systems with malfeasant push notifications. This activity to date represents a type of social engineering, bypassing many security controls and potentially obtaining persistence by installing a service worker in the browser.

References:

Python BYOB medium

Python BYOB (Build Your Own Botnet) is an open-source project, that provides a library of packages and modules which provide a basic framework for testing the limits of security assets capacity for local network defense.

Note: Network security analysts should investigate similar cases to determine if such framework is authorized to run inside the organizational network.

RedGuard medium

RedGuard, a derivative tool, based on command and control (C2) front flow control technology. As cyber attacks are constantly evolving , the red and blue team exercises become progressively more complex, RedGuard is designed to provide a better C2 channel hiding solution for the red team, that provides the flow control for the C2 channel, blocks the "malicious" analysis traffic, and better completes the entire attack task. RedGuard is a C2 front flow control tool that can avoid Blue Team, AVS, EDR, Cyberspace Search Engine detects.
