In today's world, data breaches, phishing attacks, malware, and exploits are a daily occurrence. We are all familiar with the typical phishing emails that grace our inbox day in day out. You might even get a phone call from a fake Microsoft tech support employee, who attempts to gain access to your system. However, in our always-online world, it is a bit surprising to hear about hackers that would decide to use snail mail. In what will likely elicit a few giggles, U.S. state and local government agencies, along with the Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) have issued an alert, in what I can only describe as an attack from the stone age; malware infested CDs.While no state was directly named in the alert, State Archives, State Historical Societies, and a State Department of Cultural Affairs were all targeted in this unsophisticated attack. The agencies in question received Chinese postmarked envelopes containing a poorly translated letter and an unlabeled CD. The CDs were loaded with Microsoft Word document files embedded with malicious Visual Basic scripts. There is no word on if anyone was tricked by this attempt, however, it does go to show you can't keep a good hacker down. If they can't get you via phishing emails, they might just as well try snail mail.
