Cyberattacks are becoming more disastrous as our dependence on information technology increases. Now, more than ever, organizations must adopt a serious and determined approach to defensive activities to identify and thwart immediate and future threats.

For over three decades, SonicWall has been at the forefront of providing advanced cybersecurity solutions for service providers, data centers, large distributed enterprises and government agencies.

Throughout that time, SonicWall has continuously evolved based on ever-changing customer demands from a trusted firewall vendor to an advanced next-generation security leader comprising comprehensive security services across cloud, hybrid, and traditional environments.

Government Organizations Face Surge in Malware and DDoS Attacks, Raising Alarms Over Potential Election Disruption

Newest report highlights some escalating risks to critical infrastructure as election day approaches MILPITAS, Calif. — October 31, 2024 — SonicWall released its latest threat brief focused exclusively on governments, reporting a staggering 236% year-over-year increase in malware-related attacks against government organizations globally during the first quarter of 2024. This alarming trend coincides with a notable 27% rise in attacks in the month leading up to the upcoming election, underscoring the urgent need for enhanced security measures. SonicWall's comprehensive threat intelligence reveals a 33% increase in attacks related to the software supply chain since the start of the year. Additionally, DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks are on track to surpass last year's figures by 32% - underscoring the escalating risks to critical infrastructure as election day approaches. “As attackers continue to attack critical government services and election-related systems, the importance of multi-layered cybersecurity measures cannot be overstated,” said Executive Director of Threat Research Doug McKee. "In a rapidly evolving threat landscape, the stakes have never been higher. We must  embrace cross-industry collaboration and threat intelligence information sharing  to ensure the integrity of our electoral processes and protect our vital infrastructure from those seeking to exploit  these systems. "  Rising Threats to Election Security The recent Hezbollah pager supply chain attack serves as a stark reminder of how easily everyday devices can be exploited to launch significant cyberattacks. As attackers target seemingly innocuous devices lacking stringent security protocols, the risk extends to critical election infrastructure. For instance, compromised IP cameras, frequently utilized at polling locales, could be weaponized or compromised to disrupt essential operations. SonicWall data highlights the pressing need for vigilance, as the company has successfully thwarted over 12.9 million attacks targeting IP cameras this year alone. These devices, often overlooked in cybersecurity strategies, present an enticing entry point for cybercriminals aiming to undermine public trust in the electoral process.  The Vulnerability of IoT Devices The growing reliance on Internet of Things (IoT) devices within government operations raises significant concerns. Many of these devices, including security systems and smart sensors, lack robust defenses, making them attractive targets for malicious actors. SonicWall emphasizes the urgent need for organizations to implement rigorous security measures to protect against the exploitation of vulnerable devices. The potential consequences of these vulnerabilities extend far beyond traditional cybersecurity threats, threatening the integrity of national infrastructure and electoral security. Call to Action As the election approaches, SonicWall urges government organizations to prioritize cybersecurity by strengthening their defenses against malware and DDoS attacks. By implementing advanced security solutions and enhancing awareness of IoT vulnerabilities, organizations can better safeguard their operations against these escalating threats.

SonicWall Report Details 14 Million Victims of Malware Breaches in the U.S. Healthcare Sector

SonicWall discovers 91% of healthcare breaches involve ransomware in 2024 - underscoring the urgent need for improved cybersecurity and strong partnerships with MSPs/MSSPs MILPITAS, Calif. — September 26, 2024 — SonicWall today unveiled a 2024 SonicWall Threat Brief, focused exclusively on the healthcare industry and is based on extensive research from SonicWall Capture Labs. The report reveals that a minimum of 14 million patients in the U.S. have fallen victim to malware breaches in this sector. Despite SonicWall sensors successfully preventing over 26,000 attacks, the findings underscore that healthcare organizations, due to their essential operations and potential for financial gain, remain prime targets for ransomware. Many healthcare organizations operate with limited cybersecurity resources and often rely on outdated technology – making them susceptible to ransomware attacks. SonicWall also determined that an astounding 60% of vulnerabilities were leveraged against Microsoft Exchange. "Understanding the threat landscape is crucial for the healthcare industry to effectively defend against cyberattacks,” said Executive Director, Threat Research at SonicWall Doug McKee. “As ransomware evolves and targets sensitive patient data, organizations must stay informed about emerging threats and vulnerabilities. By equipping themselves with knowledge and robust security measures, healthcare providers can better protect their critical operations and ensure the safety of patient information." Disrupting access to patient data or medical systems can have life-threatening consequences. Because of this, healthcare organizations are more likely to pay ransoms to restore operations quickly. In 2024, ransomware was leveraged in 91% of malware-related data breaches in the healthcare sector, with Lockbit emerging as one of the most notorious ransomware groups targeting this industry. The increasing digitalization of health records and telehealth services further expands the attack surface, making it nearly impossible for healthcare organizations to go it alone. Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) should play a vital role in the healthcare industry by delivering specialized expertise and resources that many organizations lack. As cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated, MSPs/MSSPs can implement robust security measures, monitor systems in real-time, and ensure compliance with regulatory standards. Their proactive approach to cybersecurity helps healthcare providers defend sensitive patient data, minimize downtime, and focus on delivering quality care, ultimately enhancing the resilience of the entire healthcare ecosystem.
