Nick DresangGUEST
Cisco's on Linux.
Nick DresangGUEST
I'm sure FortiGate's on Linux.
Russell TreatHOST
Yeah, but that's not really the issue though, right? Oh, for sure.
Russell TreatHOST
The issue for an operator and their IT group is they need it to be something they understand and that they can manage within their skill sets, policies, and procedures.
Oli ThordarsonGUEST
I think the latest one is there's been a lot of talk about FortiBleed and FortiBleed, FortiBleed has not really, I think, blown up as big as it could potentially blow up.
Oli ThordarsonGUEST
But one of my guys was just telling me that the latest thing is that evidently it's been detected that FortiGate Sniffer has been installed on about 12,000 firewalls to do credential harvesting.
Oli ThordarsonGUEST
basically packet capture and credential harvesting from there.
Oli ThordarsonGUEST
And it's this new persistent threat on the system.
Oli ThordarsonGUEST
And you really can't remove it unless you reinstall the firmware on the firewall, as my guys are telling me.
Oli ThordarsonGUEST
It's a pretty serious remediation on the FortiGate.
Oli ThordarsonGUEST
So, yeah.

In the security news this week, Microsoft patches all the things, commissary freezers enter cyber war, fake AV, real defender, Rowhammer comes for the GPU, BIOS updates are no longer optional, CVSS is not a crystal ball, K-Worker but make it malware, FortiGate gets a post-exploitation rat, CERN goes to Debian underground, UEFI shells strike again.
Paul AsadoorianHOST
Australia loses the plot and the phones.
Paul AsadoorianHOST
Cisco routers become covert gateways.

Marvin BeeHOST
SonicWall is more security-focused than Ubiquiti.
Marvin BeeHOST
SonicWall, Sophos, FortiGate, some of those, you know, they're threat protection platforms with firewalls that if you truly need, you know, if you've got a client that's a law firm, a medical office, you know, some firm that, I mean, their network is critical, you want to put a real UDM device in there.
Marvin BeeHOST
That's not to say that Unify won't work in some of those offices.
Marvin BeeHOST
If it's a smaller office and you've got layered endpoint protection, you've got vulnerability management, you've got other stuff watching, you know, then there's a chance that yes, you can put a Ubiquiti gateway in and be okay with it.
James AzarHOST
Hey everyone, it's Patch Tuesday and Microsoft setting an all-time record nine hundred and seventy-four vulnerabilities, two already exploited in the wild.
James AzarHOST
FortiGate firewalls are actively compromised with a Node.js RAT that's decrypting your VPN credentials and exfiltrating Exchange mailboxes.
James AzarHOST
White Hat hackers draining three hundred and twenty million dollars from the Liquid Bitcoin network via a software bug.
James AzarHOST
Now, they got most of it back, but they're keeping forty-seven million, and the network is still offline.
James AzarHOST
We've got 12 stories, and I wanna flag right away that today's lineup cuts across more than the usual vulnerability and kind of breach territory.
James AzarHOST
Yes, we have the biggest Patch Tuesday in Microsoft history.
James AzarHOST
Yes, we have an active FortiGate campaign hitting US organizations right now.
James AzarHOST
But we're also spending real time on a three hundred and twenty million dollar blockchain exploit and an AI credential theft campaign because both have business risk implications that practitioners need to be bringing into their executive team and boardroom, not just our SOC.
Drew Connery-MurrayHOST
Um, so if you are...
Drew Connery-MurrayHOST
You have a high schooler who's interested in cybersec, you could maybe reach out to your school district and be like, "Hey, this is available if you're interested." Um, I reached out to Fortinet to say, "Is this based on Fortinet products?" And they said, yes, some of it will be using Fortinet products, like a FortiGate firewall for traffic inspection, FortiClient for endpoint, uh, and vulnerability scanning.
Drew Connery-MurrayHOST
Um, but they also say they will present other information about industry standards and open source tools, uh, where appropriate.
Drew Connery-MurrayHOST
So a little bit Fortinet marketing, um, but it is, I guess, designed to tie into AP level, um, curriculum, uh, with a cybersecurity bent, so.
Drew Connery-MurrayHOST
Um, Fortinet announced it's rolling out a high school cybersecurity curriculum for free.
