multiple point solutions while enabling organizations to deploy applications that are faster, better protect those applications, and boost overall site performance. Edgio’s unified platform delivers 90% faster page loads, blocks billions of malicious requests each month and decreases the time it takes to mitigate exploits by 85%. With the Edgio Applications platform, teams can now safely deploy website updates twice as
often, while building performance and security directly into their applications through a unified workflow. Integrated with Edgio’s global Content Delivery Network, the platform helps developers harness the complexity of application architectures and technology stacks and contain the spiraling costs and increasing numbers of cloud platforms, services, and tools many organizations are facing. Leading ecommerce companies such as Mars and Shoe Carnival have cited the Edgio Applications Platform for its significant contribution to their digital transformation. The Edgio Applications Platform comprises three components – Performance, accelerating web applications and APIs; Sites, an integrated web application development platform; and Security, a holistic security solution that ensures the confidentiality, integrity and availability of web applications and APIs. By providing these three solutions in one integrated platform, Edgio helps companies make their web applications safer, faster, and more reliable.
Burton, states in her Mastodon post that they were pretty confident C2 is using modified Pupy RAT – which could allow the attacker to control compromised devices. “We are certain it is not consumer devices that are compromised. It’s evolved and new domains are being set up,” said Renée Burton, Head of Infoblox Threat Intelligence Group. Pupy RAT has
been used by state actors (APT) in the past. Early intel suggests a single threat actor leveraging common DNS behavior. Infoblox has not verified the attack vector but is working through intelligence data to find out more. Organizations with protective DNS are able to block these domains immediately, mitigating their risk while they continue to investigate further. The Infoblox Threat Intelligence Group believes that this set of beacons exists on limited networks and they are not generated from laptops or mobile devices. The presence of an undetected Remote Access Trojan (RAT) in a network gives the attacker control of the device.

Critical security threat uncovered by Infoblox threat intelligence group Infoblox found a new set of beacons using DNS (domain name servers) that are communicating with Russian C2 – this was very low profile since April 2022. Infoblox caught some of the suspicious domains previously but just recently confirmed that it’s a real threat and ongoing compromise of systems. Infoblox’s Head of Threat Intelligence, Renée
